Simple, fun games can help strengthen your child’s visual skills and set them up for reading success.

In this episode, Jessica shares three engaging and easy-to-implement activities that can support your child’s reading development by enhancing critical visual skills. These games not only build skills but also create opportunities for connection and fun.

Here are the three activities:

1. Staring Contests – A playful way to improve fixation, helping your child’s eyes stay focused on one spot, which is vital for reading.
2. Newspaper Tracking – A fun exercise to develop smooth and accurate eye movements (saccades), which are essential for following text while reading.
3. Memory Games – Classic memory-matching games boost visual recall, aiding in recognizing letters, words, and sight word shapes.

Jessica explains how these games target specific visual skills and offers practical tips to incorporate them into daily life. Whether you’re looking to help your struggling reader or just want to boost their visual abilities, these activities can make a big difference.
