❄️ Happy First Day of Winter!
Hi there,
As the Winter Solstice arrives and the days reach their shortest point, many of us are settling into a season of coziness — blankets, warm drinks, and a little extra time indoors. It’s a wonderful moment to slow down, reset, and enjoy simple, meaningful routines with your little learners.
With winter holidays just around the corner, staying focused can feel tricky. Here are a few gentle ideas to help keep learning on track during this festive stretch:
✨ Create a cozy reading nook.
A pillow, a blanket, and a stack of favorite books can turn reading time into something kids look forward to.
✨ Keep sessions short and cheerful.
Even 5–10 minutes of reading a day makes a big difference — especially during busy weeks.
✨ Mix in seasonal stories.
Winter-themed books or stories about snow, animals, and traditions help keep kids engaged and curious.
At First Step Phonics, we’re all about simple, step-by-step progress — especially during seasons when routines shift. A little consistency now helps new readers stay confident and excited, ready for all the stories winter has to offer.
Just a friendly reminder, you can still enjoy 15% off* your next First Step Phonics order — just use the code WINTER15 at checkout through December 31.
Wishing you a warm, bright, and cozy start to winter,
