3 is a little young, but when they’re ready (around 5 or 6), I teach my kids all the sounds that a letter makes at once using phonogram cards – we play games: phonogram Bingo, lay out cards and find the right one, hop up and down stairs for each correct card, lay them out on the floor like a snake and hop your way around, etc. For example, I may put out 10 cards on the table and ask ds to find /a/, /A/, /ah/ and he will point to and pick up the letter A. Sometimes I do it w/ treats like goldfish for each one correct.
