Every school meeting that I attend the importance of reading is what every mom and teacher emphasizes on. Without a doubt it is important and in a way I am really happy that the daughters love their books. I think its time for the older one to start reading independently and in a way I am super excited for times when she will read a full book on her own.
Each week when we head out to the library to borrow books I always secretly wish she reads and borrows many many books. There are some things that are good in excess.
So to aid the reading I have been searching for how to make those sight words really interesting and maybe you can start too. There is no right age to start you can start with a toddler too. While we have listed lots of activities here is a list of books I found that has over 50+ sight words
