What are Reading Fairy classes?
Reading Fairy classes are unique progressive classes that support every age and stage of a child’s pre-school & reading journey.
We are firm believers in learning through play and use activities that include sensory & performance storytelling, first words, phonics, songs, games, and picture book time. We use props, puppets, bubbles, musical instruments and more, to engage and delight children as they share stories and develop early reading skills at their own pace.
Each 40 minute session brings Reading Fairy and her character friends to life with original songs, dances & games. Each session ends with a snuggle up with Book Bear and a story to share with grown ups and children alike.
