This site is super fun for preschoolers learning how to read! It has stories, games, and even finger play videos. My son was engaged with the site for over an hour. Best of all, there is no advertising. The site was created by Reading is Fundamental. Five stars all the way!

This new seat-of-the-pants site uses short story writing as a means of showing parents how to guide their children and improve upon literacy, behavior and social skills. It contains common sense tips on motivation, child development, discipline and more. Our overly complex world often has to be boiled down to some simple truths, and young parents need the most help.

If you liked Harry Potter you will LOVE this story... A magical mystery adventure for young and old. It's like a cross between Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and Lord of the Rings. The first three chapters are free to download and enjoy...

The text is big and easy to read, the pictures are bold and bright, and the bears are just adorable!
