Help your child think of other words that rhyme with words in the Goodnight Moon book such as: bear, chair, fair, wear, mare, etc. "oo" in good is the same as book, foot and look. Example: "oo" in moon is the same as tooth, food and room. Have your child think of other words with these sounds and match them. Talk about the phoneme of "oo", and how it sounds in moon versus how it sounds in good.It also gives practice with phonemes, the sound of letters. This helps even very young children understand the connection between the words you say and the written words in the book. Repeat with other words such as kittens, mittens, clock, chairs, etc. Sound out each letter together as they are looking. Point to the bears and ask your child if they can find the matching word. Let your child read "goodnight" throughout the reading.Point out how the words kittens and mittens not only sound the same, but look the same along with house & mouse, brush, mush & hush, etc.Point out beginning sight words including color words and number words as you read.
