I'm really fortunate that Sebby and Quincy have pretty fabulous teachers. They take the time to get to know my kids and help them learn and grow as people.

Now Quincy has sweet little Violet to help her learn to read. It's so cute to watch her turn the pages of her special Tag Junior books and set Violet down on them so Violet can "read" the story to her. The Tag Junior is perfect for little … [Read more...]

I had the opportunity to chat with Ron Fairchild, President/CEO at Smarter Learning Group, last week about how to make reading fun for children. He suggested reading books together with your child and to focus on their natural interests. Summers are a great time for freedom and to explore. Summer is over, and many of us are sending our kids back to school this week, me included. My son, … [Read more...]
