We are living crazy, frenetic lives today. We work 40+ hours per week, shop, cook, clean, do laundry, eat dinner…
And somewhere in the middle of all this chaos, we are our child’s first teacher.
We teach them shapes, colors, letters and sounds.
But what about that nagging doubt?
Are they ready for school?
Have you done enough?
Look ahead
1 in 5 college students today has to take a remedial reading class in their freshman year.
Not your child, right? Are you sure?
Luckily, we have psychological research that teaches us how children think & learn.
Now apply that research in your home and make learning a byproduct of fun.
Make learning a byproduct of fun!

What can we do at home to help our children to succeed?
Claire N. Rubman, PhD
Given that this is a book about you and your children, you might be wondering, who do I think I am and why should you listen to a word that I say?
Well, I’m a cognitive, developmental psychologist. I’ve taught in the classroom for over 30 years and I’ve raised three of my own children! I’ve seen the struggle first hand.
I’ve watched my children (and possibly your children) succeed and fail with phonics, reading, reading comprehension, and learning. I’ve seen our collective children hurting and I’ve also seen them succeed beyond their wildest dreams. I have such a passion for watching them develop a love for reading and learning that I wanted to share it with you.
I earned my PhD from Stony Brook University in 1994 and I have been teaching and raising children ever since. I have marveled at the educational successes and failures of my own three children (the last of whom is now off to university).
