Despite the development of new technologies, video and online learning, without the ability to read well, it is impossible for a modern person to achieve success in any business. That’s why caring parents are so eager to teach their kids to read and write, and this needs to start with learning the Russian alphabet. But what if the child doesn't want to learn letters? Then we learn letters for children 5-6 years old by playing with the alphabet.
There are completely different opinions regarding the age at which children should start learning the alphabet, each of which is accompanied by convincing arguments. Proponents of early development call for starting as early as possible - at least from a year. Other experts convincingly prove that such an early introduction to the alphabet is pointless: the baby’s brain has not yet matured and he is unlikely to read at 2 or 3 years old.
Even knowing the letters, correlating them with sounds, children are not yet ready to put them into syllables at 2-3 years old. Therefore, without going to extremes, teachers advise starting to introduce children to the alphabet at the age of 3. Do this at first simply by paying attention to them and naming the sounds that correspond to them. Teach through play, without requiring the child to memorize.
You can start learning the alphabet and numbers from the age of 4, so that you can slowly, calmly master it and learn to read and write a little by school.
No matter what age you decide to teach your preschooler the alphabet, the main thing is not only to teach, but also not to instill in him an aversion to the learning process itself. Therefore, classes should be short and take the form of a game. Today, to help parents teaching children 3-5 years old the Russian alphabet, there are songs, educational games, cartoons, and videos that can be watched online. All this helps to teach your child the alphabet and numbers in a fun and easy way. This needs to be done correctly.
Educational cartoons for children. Learning letters ABC in verses Alphabet from A to Z
One of the easiest ways to associate a letter in your child’s memory with a personal action is to print out coloring pages with the alphabet and give them to him. You can do this for free by finding coloring pages on the appropriate sites and downloading them.
Artists select pictures that will strengthen the association with this letter and thereby help to visually remember it better. When the child traces and colors the letter, he is simultaneously preparing to write it. These educational coloring pages can be printed, or you can find coloring books online.
Training is best done in real life, but today many educational games, cartoons, and videos can be found and used online. This should not be the main way of learning, although children really like educational cartoons, videos, and flash games. They can be a good addition to your regular learning activities - modeling, playing with blocks, coloring, reading poetry and learning songs.
There are several types of flash games that teach children the alphabet.
When a preschooler plays online, parents should be nearby and help him. And also make sure that the baby does not play for too long.
It’s good if the alphabet is associated with something pleasant and fun, and not boring and difficult. One way to achieve this is to make the letters edible. There are many ways to do this:
Today you can buy different board games with the alphabet, starting with cubes and ending with lotto, puzzles or dominoes. When purchasing such games, choose ones with simple, clear pictures and clear lettering. The simpler it is, the easier it is for the child to remember them.
How to teach your child letters easily and naturally?
When a mother believes that the child’s age already suggests learning letters, she is faced with the question of the teaching method. The mother will not want to burden the child with serious activities. Therefore, many are trying to make this process interesting, but at the same time very effective.
Sometimes the opinions of experts differ on this issue. However, there are some most general recommendations:

Details
What is the fastest way to learn letters with your child? The easiest way is to hang a poster with the alphabet on the wall and regularly voice it to your child... But... this method does not work for all children! Unfortunately, many children get bored very quickly and simply “run away” from such activities.
If you find yourself in such a situation, don’t despair! There are tons of fun letter learning games that your child is sure to love!
Before you start learning letters, it is important not to forget:
Most preschool teachers agree that it is best to teach children the “sound” interpretation of letters (not “Ka” but “K”, not “Be”, but “B”, etc.).
This is done so that later it will be much easier for the child to learn to add syllables.
Compare in which case it will be easier for a child to “figure out” how to form a syllable:
Sound option: “B” + “A” = “BA”
Letter version: “Be” + “A” = ?????- P about the logic of things, children often want to say “BeA” at this point, and this is where it arisesthe main problem that many parents face when teaching their children “classic” letter names(such as “Be” “Ve”, etc.) – when reading syllables, it is difficult for a child to mentally reject the sound “a” from “Ka”, the sound “e” from “Ve”, etc. (they want to read not “VA”, but “VEA”, not “BU”, but “BeU”, etc.)
And this complexity becomes a serious obstacle to teaching a child the skill of combining individual letters into syllables.
Therefore, studying the “sound” interpretation of letters will be much preferable.
Everything is simple here! You can download coloring pages with letters from the Internet and invite your child to color them. The child will engage in creativity with interest, and at the same time consolidate knowledge about the new letter.
To prevent the child from getting bored with the coloring process, you need to use various interesting techniques:
Color letters not only with pencils, but also with paints, wax crayons, and stamps;
Paint with your fingers using finger paints;
Use unconventional drawing techniques ( cotton swabs, crumpled paper, blots and so on.).
2. Decorate the letter.
Children will have fun decorating the letters!
You can decorate them with plasticine, applique, colored glass, construction kit parts... whatever you want!
Try decorating the letter “A” with watermelons, the letter “B” with bananas, etc.
A very useful activity is to sculpt letters from colored dough or plasticine. And if you combine sculpting with listening to songs by Ekaterina Zheleznova from the album “Musical ABC Book” (in which the whole process of sculpting is “sung” in a very interesting way) - then sculpting will be even more fun.
Wonderful mothers, passionate about the development of children, have long made funny videos from these songs and posted them online.
For example, while playing and watching a funny video, you can make the letter A in a fun and interesting way:
Tilt two sticks
Connect at the top
One crossbar -
Like a letter A tent!
In the process of learning the alphabet, the process of repetition is important. Still would! After all, by the time you get to “I”, you must try not to forget the letter “A”.
The process of repeating already learned material will be more fun with the game “Halves”!
Cut out beautiful cards with letters, cut them into two parts, mix them.
Invite your child to “fold” letters from two halves.
To consolidate the material covered, the well-known game “Memory” is also suitable (at the same time, attention and memory are trained). You will need a set of cards in which each of the pictures with a certain letter is presented in duplicate.
Shuffle the cards and place them in front of the child, white side up.
Ask him to turn over any of the cards, name the sound that the open letter represents. Then the player needs to find exactly the same card among the others that have not yet been turned over. The player looks for the desired letter by turning over the remaining cards and checking what is written on them.
Did you open the wrong letter? Turn it back to the white side up and look for a pair further!
When the required card is found, the player takes two cards for himself and the game continues until a pair is found for each card.
Children love to draw on semolina! Without exception, everything - from small to large! Even if your child is already 10 years old and seems “so big” already, believe me, he will be delighted with drawing on semolina!
Another way to study and repeat letters is lotto.
Not all children are enthusiastic about letter lotto. In order to interest the child in this game, you can use foil or paper.
Prepare the playing field, and also wrap the letter figures in foil or paper.
Invite your child to unfold the letter and place it in its place on the lotto playing field.
Lotto can be sound - in this case you need to put a letter on a card on which an object is drawn that begins with this letter.
A cheerful Bukvoeshka may appear in your home. The easiest way to do this is to take a glove doll or a soft toy.
For example, this cockerel -
very unusual! He eats letters! Come on! Let him eat the letter B! And now he wants the letter A! Oh, how deliciously you feed the cockerel!
You can play the letter game in another way:
Funny people live in this box. They eat nothing but letters. Let's feed them? (the little people's mouths are the slits in the box).
Here is their food (we draw letters on the beans with a felt-tip pen):
We feed the little men (each little man has his own letter, if the baby makes a mistake, the little men spit merrily, close their mouths and demand to be fed another food that suits them better (beans with their “own” letter):
We lay out the silhouettes of letters from counting sticks, matches, Lego and everything else that comes to hand:
Some children may find it difficult to form letters from available materials (especially if the child is under 3.5 years old).
With such children you can design using the “overlay” method.
To do this, you can draw these simple diagrams:
Also, in order to build letters, you can use the Zheleznovs’ musical primer, which was already written about in paragraph 3 of this article.
For example, poetry and a song, which is described in paragraph 3 for "A" can also be used to construct this letter from sticks (Tilt two sticks, connect them at the top, one crossbar - like a letter A tent!)
Draw a letter on paper. Place a piece of paper on the carpet or soft sofa and hand the child a toothpick (the object is, of course, sharp... but in 90% of cases children easily learn safety precautions and no problems arise). Ask him to decorate the letter with holes (pierce the letter along the outline).
This is a great game for learning how to write letters.
Draw the letter with paints. And then ask your child to circle it with a different color... or several colors. Of course, it is better to draw the letter on an A4 sheet.
You can even “write” entire words this way:
Look, these animals have lost their letters:
What sound does “Elephant” begin with? That's right, on "C". Where is our letter “S”? Let's give it back to the elephant!
Find all the letters “K” in this picture and circle them!
And in this picture there are all the letters “T”:
Find all the red M's... And now the blue ones... And now the orange ones, etc.
Now count - how many letters "M" did you find in total?
Lay out the letter from the mosaic according to the example:
A simpler and more interesting option:
Roll out the dough, draw a letter on it with a felt-tip pen... and decorate it with a mosaic!
You can also decorate the letters on the dough with other items, such as cereal:
This game is good because it is active - it is more like a fun game of catch-up, rather than a learning process. It can be used instead of a mobile pause in class to have a useful rest.
Hang pictures of different letters on the walls of the room (you can use letters that you “decorated” with your child).
Now we give the child the command: “Run quickly, quickly to the letter C!”
And now to the letter “A”!
This game not only helps you learn letters in motion, it also develops attention and memory.
If a child refuses to run at your command, you can take him by the hand and run with him.
A very interesting variation of this game was invented and offered on her website by Natalya Chistokletova (). It's a game - “Cover the letter with your palm”:
Game "Feed the monster":
17. Outdoor game “Jump-jump-team!”
This game is also active, and therefore children also love it!
Do you remember the funny program “Jump-Jump-Team” on the “Carousel” channel?
You can play “jump-jump-team” with letters!
Let's take a cube with letters! (if you don’t have one ready-made, you can make it... Well, as a last resort, just turn the cards with the letters down with the image down and pull them out one at a time).
For example, this simple cube can be made using a children's cube, tape and paper:
Let's throw the dice... What have we got? Yeah! "U".
What happens with “U”... Snail? Let's show her (we put a pillow on our back and start crawling on the floor).
Now what? Letter "C". At "C" we have an elephant! Let's show it too!
My daughter learned the letters in a couple of months on her own, without any help from me...
And a sound poster helped me with this!
The meaning of its action is simple - the child clicks on a picture with a letter - the poster pronounces the sound it represents.
How much time and effort I saved thanks to this poster... And I spent it on other useful games with my daughter, which would not have happened without my participation.
The only “But!” - it is better to buy posters that work in the mode of studying not the names of letters (for example, “Ka”, “Sha”, “Be”, etc.), but the names of the sounds that these letters represent (not “Ka” but “K” , not “Be”, but “B”). The advisability of such a study was already discussed at the beginning of the article. There are now quite a lot of posters that offer the “sound” sound of each letter.
Of course, this article does not list all the possible ways to learn letters with a child - in fact, there are many more! Play, play and don't stop playing - there is no better way for a child to learn!

The alphabet of the Russian language has a centuries-old history. And although this is a well-known truth, few know who invented it and when.
The history of the Russian alphabet goes back to ancient times, during the times of pagan Kievan Rus.
The order to create the Russian alphabet came from the Emperor of Byzantium, Michael III, who instructed the brother monks to develop the letters of the Russian alphabet, later called the Cyrillic alphabet. This happened in 863.
The Cyrillic alphabet had its roots in the Greek script, but since Cyril and Methodius came from Bulgaria, this land became a center for the spread of literacy and writing. Church Greek and Latin books began to be translated into Old Church Slavonic. After several centuries it became exclusively the language of the church, but played an important role in the development of the modern Russian language. Many consonants and vowels have not survived to this day, since this Russian alphabet has undergone many changes. The main transformations affected the alphabet during the time of Peter and during the October Revolution.
However, it is interesting not only who invented the Russian alphabet, but also how many letters it contains. Most people, even as adults, doubt how many there are: 32 or 33. And what can we say about children! There is every reason for this. Let's dive into history.
The Old Church Slavonic alphabet (as it came down to us in written sources) had 43 letters. Subsequently, 4 more letters were added, and 14 were removed, since the sounds they denoted ceased to be pronounced or merged with similar sounds. In the 19th century, Russian historian and writer N. Karamzin introduced the letter “ё” into the alphabet.
For a long time, “E” and “E” were considered one letter, so it was common to think that there are 32 letters in the alphabet.
Only after 1942 they were separated, and the alphabet became 33 letters.
The alphabet of the Russian language in its current form is divided into vowels and consonants.
We pronounce vowels freely: the sound passes through the vocal cords without obstacles.
Consonant sounds require an obstacle in the way to be created. In modern Russian, these letters and sounds are in the following relationship, while the number of sounds and letters will be different:
If we don’t go into details and say briefly, this is explained by the fact that some vowel letters (e, ё, yu, ya) can denote two sounds, and consonants have pairs of hardness and softness.
By spelling, letters are distinguished between uppercase and lowercase letters:
Their writing is associated with the need to highlight proper and common nouns in the text (capitals are used for the latter, as well as for writing words in general).
Even if your child knows what the letters are called, closer to school age a problem arises related to the need to remember the letters in order in the alphabet. Most children confuse letters for a long time and cannot put them in the right order. Although it is very easy to help a child. There are several ways to do this.
Pictures and photos with letters can help you learn the alphabet. You can download them on our website, print them, stick them on thick cardboard and practice with your child.
How can pictures and photos attached to letter symbols be useful?
Beautiful design and bright colors will surely attract the attention of kids. Children become interested in everything unusual and colorful - and learning goes faster and more exciting. The Russian alphabet and pictures will become best friends in lessons for kids.
You can also easily download and print it on the website. A numbered letter list for children can make learning the alphabet order much easier for those who can count. This is how the children firmly remember how many letters are in the alphabet, and the accompanying photos and pictures that the table includes help build an associative series. So someone came up with a great idea - to teach the alphabet with pictures and photos.
No one will argue with the fact that all children love cartoons. But this love can be put to good use and you can learn the alphabet with the help of specially created educational cartoons. They include excerpts from Soviet cartoons, bright letter symbols, pictures, and songs. Musical accompaniment forces children to hum and rhyme the alphabet, and this way they remember it much faster.
This cartoon can be viewed here:
This is an excellent video tutorial for children. There is not only writing and reading letters, but also excerpts from cartoons, images of what words with a particular letter mean, etc. The baby will have no choice but to remember the song and the order of the letters.
You can watch this cartoon here:
In addition to colorful cartoons and melodic music, the cartoon “Learning Letters: The ABC in Poems” offers simple verses that are easy to remember and tell the child which letter is next in the alphabet.
This is a great cartoon for those children who are already familiar with the alphabet and are trying to read. Here we learn the alphabet and rules for writing words with the Computer and its assistant File. Using words as an example, they tell kids how to read, and what place the letters occupy in the alphabet, as well as how many letters there are in the Russian alphabet. This fascinating cartoon lasts 30-40 minutes, so you will have to be patient. But children won’t need it: the material is presented in a playful way, and the kids won’t get bored.

The main character is the cat Busya, who emerged from an illustrated primer to show children how letters look and are read. The cartoon has not only colorful drawings, but also musical accompaniment. Busya the cat reads short poems dedicated to a specific letter.
It’s easy to watch this cartoon here
It consists of viewing an illustrated primer, and a male voice pleasantly and leisurely reads short poems dedicated to letters.
Thus, learning the alphabet should be interesting for children, then they will quickly and easily master the material. We teach in a fun and unobtrusive way! This is the main key to success. You can download the video on our website or print out the pictures, buy books for children or manuals that speak the alphabet on batteries in the store. Cover all available places in the apartment with letters and tables with the alphabet. Learning must be integrated into life itself, and then it will become invisible to the child, but as effective as possible.
