Helping our kids to learn to read is clearly an important part of being a parent. Reading is a very important skill for everyone. With the advancement of technology has come audiobooks and videos that help keep kids engaged in learning without any necessity of reading. While technology has a place and is rather useful for many families, we love sharing new ways to help kids learn to read. Today we’re featuring an early emergent reader activity worksheet pack from a fantastic new Etsy shop, whose owner has been kind enough to allow us to use her first book for helping kids learn to read. Why not check out Estelle Barton’s MyLibook shop for more inspiration and ideas?

This is a simple read and trace activity for the kids; we are using simple CVC words here to help emergent readers to learn the basics first, of course.
Your children can trace an upper case and lower case C to help with letter recognition. Since this worksheet pack is Cat and the Rat themed, your children will be able to work on CAT and RAT word and letter recognition within each activity; working on the C, R and T in particular.
What is it?
Within this worksheet, your children will love cutting and pasting the words found to help with learning the letters focused on in this booklet.
And we haven’t forgotten to include wordsearches within the worksheets, so that Your children won’t even realise that they’re learning, because they’ll be having so much fun!
