Great tips! Here are a few more ideas:
If parents are looking for words for word cards, they should check the Fry lists and Dolch lists. First, however, they should have their children's eyes checked and make sure that they are not confusing letters such as b, d, q, and g. Parents should remember that letter names, while very important, are not the same as letter sounds. Give children 5 papers with a letter, such as M on them, and challenge them to put each paper on a household item that starts with that letter. While in the store, challenge children to point out things that start with a certain letter such as t or s. At first, beware of consonants that have more than one sound, such as c and g. Save those for last.
It is also helpful to encourage children to notice visual similarities and differences, and to put things in order.
