Language-building game for fun on the go. Created in collaboration with a reading and learning expert.

Consists of 24 durable waterproof, tear proof cards on a cable-lock ring. Developed as a tool for parents and teachers to support language development in children, this Junior game builds specific skills that are proven to benefit reading and school success.

Each color section of NAMiTS Junior builds a different set of skills:
Yellow Section - Wired for Words: develops vocabulary. The more words children hear determines how many words they will know and use.
Blue Section - Opening Windows to the World: encourages use of more complex language, stimulates extended conversations, and takes the child out of the here and now.
Red Section - Structured for Sound: focuses on awareness of letters and sounds.
Green Section - Digging and Discovering: Promotes opportunities for rich discussions on topics of science and our world.

Research-Based: The content for this Junior game was developed using Scientifically Based Reading Research done by Harvard Graduate School of Education in their Home-School Study of Language and Literacy Development. Of all the factors included in the study's analysis, the strongest predictor of children's literacy development was support for literacy in the home.

Building Language Together: The Home-School Study is the basis for Building Language Together (BLT), a family literacy project. BLT informs parents about the best ways to support their child's learning. It allows parents to become directly involved in activities that help foster specific language skills that support literacy development.

Families Make a Difference: Parents are the first and best teacher a child can have. No one person knows a child better, cares more deeply for that child, or has more at stake in their healthy development.

Proven Benefits: NAMiTS Junior provides a fun, interactive way for parents and teachers to build skills critical to future reading and academic success. Play the game and watch the child's vocabulary grow!
