" We have the letters and numbers that stick on the wall in the tub - you know the foam ones? Since my daughter gets a bath every night she always plays with them. She loves to put them on the walls and we work on her learning what they are, but we also spell words then too. "

" I got some letters on cards and created a game called "Letter Scramble". I would lay out the letters and then say to him find the letter A he would have to go and find the letter A. It helped him a lot i just put them all over the lounge room floor.

Another thing we do is before bed instead of reading him a book now we get him to pick out some of the letters.

I hope this helps you "
