2. Sequence letters
The joyful board game teaches phonics to children above four years, using colorful pictures. In the game, children get a board with printed pictures and a set of cards with letters written on them in uppercase and lowercase. Your child has to identify the picture, read the name of the object/thing aloud, and find a letter card that matches the sound of the word’s first letter. Regular practice of phonics helps develop your child’s vocabulary and spelling skills and hones their critical thinking skills.

- Fold the chits and put them in a bowl.
- Divide the children into two teams of three players each.
- Ask each team to take turns to send a teammate to pick a chit from the bowl.

Indulging in such activities can help improve their vocabulary skills, foster creativity, and provide ample opportunity for fun.
4. Scrabble boggle game
In this word-construction game, the child has to come up with as many words as possible by arranging and rearranging 16 letter cubes on a boggle grid within a set time.

The exciting DIY board game uses the rules of the classic snakes and ladders game to learn and remember words through visual perception.
Take a snakes and ladders board and write age-appropriate and easy-to-understand words in each box using a pen/marker. The snakes and ladders board has 100 boxes to write 100 different words that you want your child to learn. Roll the dice and play the game as usual with an additional rule that requires your child to read aloud the word in which their counter lands.

- Draw four hopscotch courts on the floor. Each court should have seven different letters from A to Z.
- Assign one letter to each child and make six kids stand at the edge of each box.
- Now, say a word aloud, for instance, “ARMOR,” and instruct the children to hop on the letter assigned to them in the order as they come in the word”ARMOR.”

These exciting games will not only arouse interest in reading, but also help develop memory, attention and the level of understanding of texts. Play - reading, read - playing!
"Racing"
What should be done? Invite the child to read his favorite poem several times, each time increasing the speed and power of the voice.
Purpose. The exercise significantly increases the speed of reading, improves reading technique and promotes the development of speech.
"Foreigner"
What should be done? We read the words, highlighting the last syllable, as if with a "foreign" accent. Reading text or columns of words. For example:
There is healthy mind in a healthy body.
Not the one who is RIGHT who is strong, but the one who is honest.
A tree is supported by roots, and a person is supported by friends.
And Vaska listens and eats.
Elbow is close, but you won't bite
The cuckoo praises the rooster for praising the cuckoo.
Alone in the field is not a warrior.
Purpose. This exercise helps children get rid of the habit of swallowing endings. It is quite tedious, so we complete it for 30 seconds.
"Voices"
What should be done? The task is to read the text in the form of a person or animal, cartoon or literary character. Discuss with the child how Baba Yaga or a mouse, a hare or a wolf would read this text.
Purpose. The exercise improves the reading technique, helps to get the kid interested in reading, to show that it is fun and interesting.
"Funny Pictures"
What should be done? For this exercise, you need to match text with a large number of pictures.
Cut the pictures and mix. The task of the child is to arrange the pictures in order to restore the sequence of events.
Option 1. Read the text and put the pictures in order.
Option 2. Tell a story from pictures. Then read the text and compare your version with the one proposed.
Purpose. The exercise contributes to the development of semantic reading and a deeper understanding of what is read.
"Magic puzzles"
What should be done? Cut the text into pieces-puzzles and mix. We invite the child to collect them and read the restored text.
Purpose. The exercise is quite difficult, and memory, attention, and thinking are involved. The skill of semantic reading is being improved. At first, you need to choose familiar texts, better - fairy tales.
“The word is lost”
What should be done? Read the text aloud, skipping words.
The child must understand which word was missed.
Target . The exercise contributes to the development of attention, the formation of the skill of semantic guessing and a deeper understanding of what is read.
"First and last"
What should I do? The child reads the text, saying aloud only the first and last letters in the word. Then he should tell what he read about.
Purpose. The exercise trains concentration and quick switching of attention, teaches you to perform several actions at the same time: read, understand, memorize.
Head-tail
What should I do? Option 1. An adult reads the beginning of the word, and the child must find the "tail", that is, the end of this word. To do this, you need to quickly scan the entire text, find the word and read the ending.
Option 2. The adult reads the beginning of the sentence, and the child must find its ending.
Purpose. This is a good training for the skills of "scanning" the text with the eyes, concentration and semantic reading.
"Read and count"
What to do? The child must not only read and understand the text, but also count the words. Naturally, for starters, you need small texts - from 10-20 to 40-50 words.
Target. This exercise helps to develop attention and better understand the text.
"Shooting a movie"
What to do? Ask the child to imagine a movie based on the text. We help with leading questions, find out what he sees and feels when he reads. The task is not only to understand what the text is about, but also to hear sounds, feel smells, tastes, and experience the emotions of the characters. The child must answer your questions and retell the text.
Purpose. We develop figurative memory, speech, retelling skill.
Thanks to the use of the method of co-sensation, children easily remember and tell the text with all the details, even come up with details.
G. Abdulova “We read after the ABC: we develop speed reading”
It is important to teach a child to read correctly. The book by an experienced neuropsychologist, speed reading trainer and head of the Superbrain School of Intellectual Development Gyuzel Abdulova contains interesting and fun exercises that will help a child learn to read fluently without mistakes and hesitations. And although this book is designed for children of primary school age, it will certainly be interesting for parents to study: try to quickly read the text upside down or find a few words in a whole sea of scattered letters.
