I’m an avid reader and it just so happens that my husband is as well. Let’s just say that we are so avid that every time one of our favorite authors publishes a new book, we have said book in hand on the day it is released, and it is read from cover to cover before we go to bed for the night. Reading it amazing! It allows us to escape, use our imagination, and gain a wealth of knowledge beyond our wildest dreams. If you haven’t read a good book recently, it’s time.
Reading is such an important part of our lives that when we got pregnant and had our baby shower, we asked people to bring us a copy of their favorite children’s book in lieu of other gifts. Needless to say, our daughter had a small library before she was born, and we’ve made reading an important part of her childhood. We often read books throughout the day and always at bedtime. I’m not sure which who enjoys it more; her or us. I’ll say it’s a tie but in my mind, I definitely enjoy it more. We snuggle down in her bed and head out on a new adventure. Magical!
As she got older, she started taking the books and “reading” them to me. She would look at the pictures and make up stories as she went. To say that I was impressed with her accuracy would be an understatement. Unfortunately, as she got a little older, she started to become frustrated with her inability to read. I explained that this would come in time, reassured her that her stories are amazing, and we have continued to read but I have been looking for a way to ease her into reading. I always want to support my daughter’s passions and if reading is one of them, I am all for it!

Double Consonants, Plurals and Blends nis what we need to work on my son has a hard time with “th” and “ch”
Right now my little one still just loves to look at the pictures, but he is becoming more and more adventurous and inventive. I think he would like to start reading soon.
I like that the run time of each session is 30-45 minutes because it is hard for young children to focus for a long period of time.
My granddaughter is a year and a half so I think the first sight word dvd would be perfect for her at this stage.
This is perfect for my children! I love that it is for children ages 4-7 so both of my little ones can learn while watching it. The shorter sessions is so appealing as I know after 45 minutes they would lose interest. This looks so fun for them!
these sound like they great learning tools. they be great for the kids
This is great! I am excited about the First Sight Words DVD
Awsome review, im most exited for first sight words.
Phonics for Beginners is definitely one that I would love to have for my

First Sight Words
What a great collection for beginning readers! We are avid readers in our household as well, and it is so hard to watch my children struggle with something I love. As they are just starting Kindergarten, and their life-long reading journey they need lots of practice. This would be great for my twins, What we’re working on now is sight words, so the Sight Words dvd is a great starting point! Thank you for this giveaway opp!
I think maybe first sight words.
My daughter is a toddler, we could use all of them!
I love this series! I am most excited for phonics for beginners.

These videos are AMAZING. Thanks for the chance to win. I have used these videos in my classroom and shared them with families and they’ve been a huge hit. Would so love to win this whole collection.
My daughter also has a little library that I started putting together before she was born. I think we would start with the First Sight Words dvd and then move on to phonics. I can’t wait for her to start reading to me!
My youngest son would need to start with the first phonics and sight words dvds.
The Phonics for Beginners would be awesome for my little one!
Phonics: Short Vowels, Consonants and CVC Words

I’d love to have my son watch these videos! A great head start. Love the First Sight Words!
Awesome review. I am most excited to share first sight words with my son !
I just love this entire collection so much! I think that all 10 DVDs are critical to the learning to read process. I would start with the beginners DVD with my daughter first. It would be so awesome if this collection helped her learn as quickly as they say!
Looks like very well organized and researched system. Most importantly thought it looks like fun for kids.
Most excited about the Phonics: Long Vowels and R-Controlled Vowels DVD.
This is great for home schooled kids too
My daughter would love this. A great way to help your child to read and help a child who maybe knows how but still needs a little help.
I’m excited about the sight words DVD!!
My daughter is about to turn 4 so phonics for beginners would be great for her!!
I am most excited to share the sight words book with my little one!
We’re looking forward to the Phonics for Beginners DVD for our son.
I’d love my son to watch the one about sight words!
I like the First sight words. I think it is important to start teaching at an earlier age. First sight words starts teaching identifying pictures with words.
I would love to check out Phonics: Diphthongs, Syllables read. My son would love it!
I’m excited about the sight words DVD’s
First Sight Words would be my first choice for my granddaughter.
I am most excited about the Phonics: Short Vowels, Consonants and CVC Words
One of my older children struggled with reading throughout elementary it was a very hard time for her. I would love to give my toddler a starting advantage and hopefully save him from the same struggle.
I think the sight word starting young is so important so I am most excited about that.
The first sight words sound do exciting to me. My grandson is just beginning to learn words and thus lesson would help him discover that letters (put together) make words.
I’m excited for my daughter to watch Phonics for Beginners. I know a lot of adults who could benefit from a good Phonics lesson.
My daughters are 5 and 2.. for our 2 year old I am excited to share Sight Words with her 🙂 For our 5 year old who is heading into Kindergarten this year, I am excited to share Phonics: Short Vowels, Consonants and CVC Words with her! She started reading a bit in 4K and has always been in love with books, so I think this would be a wonderful set for my daughters to share!! Our 5 year old loves to ‘read’ to our 2 year old.. putting together what she already knows and making up the rest along the way! lol
