"Crown" dad this Father's Day—and sneak in some letter-sound practice, too.

Help Mother's Day feel special for weeks and months ahead, while giving your child some good writing practice, too.

Here's a rainy day phonics craft project for you and your first grader. Reel in those double "ee" words on this do-it-yourself eel!

Children tap into their own imaginative storytelling skills by creating and writing a richly embellished folk tale about their favorite member of the animal kingdom.

Practice reading with this fun game, where your first grader will "hunt" for hidden words around the house.

In this parts of speech fall scavenger hunt, kids will search for all the hidden leaves, sort them into parts of speech categories, and then practice creating their own sentences using the words they find.
