When you teach your children to read using Reading Games makes it more fun.

Reading games have advanced rapidly with technology away from the Scrabble games we used to play. I like Scrabble and it is a good game for all the family and it does teach spelling and how to make up words.

Crossword and Hidden Words are also good games that are still around today. You can now download a free puzzle maker from the Internet and make your own puzzles for you kids to fill in. The puzzle makers are really

amazing tools. You can churn out an endless number of puzzles but only if your child likes doing them.

I have found that if the kid can do the puzzles they will keep doing them, but if the puzzle is too difficult they will give up and not want to do any more. So I make the puzzles with words they know as a revision sort of thing.

Nowadays with modern technology there are many reading games on the Internet for free. You will need Flash but that is free so it is easy to get started. With these games they are usually all play by yourself games. You either place against the clock or the computer keeps score. I think they are amazing.

And as kids love playing computer games they love these games and can play for hours on end. These games do teach but you still need to get in there and read to your child as often as possible. I like the PBS children’s games and these sites here, and there are many more. If you have an older child you can use this game to teach reading while playing a computer game.
