Not only did I want to help Amanda develop a love and appreciation for reading and writing. but I also wanted to find a way to make reading and writing a natural part of family life.

I've found note writing to be a wonderful way to introduce new vocabulary. When one child receives a note, often the others want to read it was well. Sometimes one will ask another what a word is or what it means. My children also find it rather natural now to write thank you notes to grandparents or to make their own birthday imitations. Should someone call when my wife and I are away, we find a note telling us who called when we return. Supply.
