Excellent to help you child develop
I bought this book to help my struggling son with his phonics. He is in an independant learning group for support, so this was for me to help him at home and I'm glad I spent the money on it as it has helped no end.

There are lots of pages at the back for you to copy and give your child to do. There are lots of helpful hints and tips to encourage and help your child.

great for home education
I bought this book for my son who was very interested in letters and reading but was not really learning to read in nursery - i must say it's really really good. Great advice about how to approach teaching, lots of printables, colouring pages, things to stick in workbooks, tricky words - we had great fun, and very straight forward for people who're not professional teachers. This book has more than enough material that you won't need to buy anything else, but we liked it so much we bought the workbooks too.

I now use it with my second child and i'm looking to move up to the grammer handbook for my eldest.

Excellent
My son has just turned 4 and loves learning his letters now! This is a really easy way to teach the letter sounds with actions and then how to blend them together. I am proud to say he made the word SPIT from the first six letters he has learnt so far!

Fantastic book
My son is now in year 2 and honestly everything is only just falling into place. I bought this book earlier this year to help him with blended sounds and a few letters that he was still getting muddled with. There are so many activities and wonderful sheets in this book to use that he was unusually motivated. I have started right from the start with my other son who has just turned 3. He is already great with 's' and 'a' and I hope to very slowly go through the letter sounds part of the book in the 2 years before he goes to school.

Review for The Phonics Handbook
I started using this book at home with my daughter when she was about 3 years old. We both loved working our way through it although it didn't seem like work, it was fun! She is now five years old and is a very confident and fluent reader. When she comes across words she has not seen before is able to sound them out phonically thanks to the techniques in this book. This book is excellent and very simple for parents and children to work through together with games and exercises. Worth every penny!! You can use it at your own speed when you are working with your own children at home and the younger they are the easier it is. Together with lots and lots of story reading at home you can't fail. I can't recommend this highly enough!
