What is Child1st Publications? Child1st Publications provides multisensory resources designed specifically for right-brained learners, including beginners, visual and kinesthetic learners, those labeled with dyslexia, autism, Aspergers, auditory processing disorder, and ADHD. Our reading resources include letters, sounds, sight words, phonics, reading fluency, comprehension, spelling and math. Our Mission Our mission is to inspire children to Love Learning. We accomplish this by designing unique learning resources that engage and stimulate the whole brain via elements such as images, body motions, and stories. Where We Came From In the late 1990’s, CEO Sarah Major was teaching a group of preschoolers and noticed that while all the children seemed to be bright, some of them just couldn't remember concepts from one moment to the next, no matter how often she reviewed with them. It was as though nothing was sticking to their brains, and she wanted to find out how it could be that bright children failed in school. The pivotal moment in her career came when she decided that everything she did as a teacher would be based on the premise that if a child was not learning, her teaching style and materials had to change to accommodate them. Throughout her teaching experiences, she developed various materials for teaching sounds and letters, numbers and counting, words and sound spellings that she tested with my students with astonishing outcomes. The difference these teaching elements made on children who were not learning was as dramatic as flipping a switch, turning the room from dark to light. In 2006, Sarah took the leap and retired from teaching to devote herself full-time to refining the teaching tools she used throughout her career and founded Child1st Publications. What started as a one-person, home-office operation has grown steadily over the past years, proving the fact that many children benefit from our visual learning style.
