Looking for something other than a book to give to a child to help him or her improve literacy skills? The parents who bring their children to the reading program at my graduate program are introduced to some games that help children improve literacy skills and can be played by the entire family. Some games are:
Dr. Seuss One Fish Two Fish Board Game (ages 3-6)
Brown Bear, Panda Bear, What do You See? (ages 3-6)
ThinkFun Zingo 1-2-3 (ages 4-6)
Boggle Jr. (ages 3-6)
Boggle Reinvention (ages 8-14)
Apples to Apples (ages 8-10)
The Great Word Race Game (ages 6-12)
These games will make great holiday gifts!
