Confidence Boosting! Melanie's Phonics Rules for Kids podcast is a fantastic resource for parents teaching their kids to read. Her bite-sized episodes break down phonics concepts in a clear and approachable way.

As the parents of two young homeschoolers, this podcast is going to be so helpful for us! Our eldest son (now age 8) took to reading quite naturally, but for our youngest (now age 4) it hasn't quite come in the same way. We're grateful for Melanie's podcast which gives helpful instruction and insight in bite-sized chunks.
