Video lessons and a matching detective-themed workbook teach your child letter names and sounds. No prep, no teaching experience needed — just press play.
The Letter Mysteries: Solve a New Case for Every Letter Sound
Who is this for
For kids who don't know their letter names and sounds yet — this is where the reading journey starts. If your child already knows most of their letters, jump ahead to Letters and Sounds or Beginning Reader instead.
What's inside
• A full video series where I teach every letter sound directly to your child, detective-office style
• A companion workbook with sound practice, mnemonic review cards, and letter games matched to each video
• Practice with beginning and ending sounds, syllables, and phonemic awareness (segmenting and blending)
• Introduction to capital and lowercase letters, vowels vs. consonants, and basic punctuation
• Early practice reading two-letter words
• Extra games and word lists in the back of the workbook for ongoing review
What child will be able to do
By the end, your child will know their letter names and sounds, tell capital from lowercase letters, and start blending simple two-letter words — all without you needing to plan or teach a single lesson yourself.
*This course will take about 6 weeks to complete. However, it is self-paced so your child can move through the course as quickly or slowly as they need.

No. The videos do the teaching — your job is just to watch alongside your child and hand them the matching workbook page.
The Letter Mysteries is video-led: your child learns directly from me on screen, and the workbook simply reinforces what they just watched. Letters and Sounds is a fully independent, parent-taught curriculum with detailed lesson plans for you to teach each letter yourself — no video required. Many families use The Letter Mysteries as the fun introduction and then move into Letters and Sounds for a complete, structured plan.
Most families start between ages 4 and 6, whenever a child is ready to begin learning letters.
