Hooked On Phonics Kindergarten

We have been using Hooked on Phonics for about a week and my son is already reading the first book. Lots of repetition helps make the learning objective concrete. As a teacher, this is a great jump start to kindergarten and even is a great tool to go along with the kindergarten year. Even if you don't have a clue how to help your child, this product makes it simple. The CD's teach on their own and the parent is just a facilitator. We love it and would highly recommend it!

This program is working well for my Kindergartener but could be stronger. The games on the CDRom area a little too repetitve. She loses interest really quickly and she is a very focused little one....They do not hold their attention very long. With that in mind as the only negative I would still recommend it.

I began to teach my son to read his site words with a video that was extremely entertaining to him. He learned all the words in a week. This program does not hold his attention he is bored and the lessons are somewhat long and drawn out. No fun at all for a preschooler

I purchased this for my 4 yr old daughter. She loves it! Even though the lessons say to spend anywhere from 10-30 minutes per lesson, she can spend hours playing the games on the CD-Rom. She loves reading the books; she races to read them to everyone in the house. The method HOP uses is easy to follow and the creates a special time for mother and daughter to share her success every time we use it.

My son loved the Hooked on Phonics. He goes around the house singing the songs from the CD. He is five and he wants to do the program all the time. I love it!!!!!!!!
