  • As in the image, the parents are right there, kids on their laps in the rubble. And for wee toddlers, it’s not that anyone expects them to read all or any of the words in the dialogue. It’s making the initial connection between the spoken (or sung) words and those groups of letters on the screen. A little further along it’s associating the sounds of the letters rather than just their names.

    And then they’ll start to recognize the basic sight words, even when they’re not phonetic. Similar to reading a book along with a preschooler and having them do all the "the"s as you point to them.
