Early signs of dyslexia don't always look like reading struggles. 👀

Many parents are surprised to learn that some of the earliest indicators show up before a child ever opens a book. Here are a few signs worth paying attention to:

📌 Frequent upper respiratory or ear infections
📌 Difficulty understanding spoken instructions
📌 Delayed talking
📌 Mixing up sounds in syllables — saying "aminal" instead of "animal"
📌 Trouble remembering the days of the week
📌 Confusing up and down, or left and right

If any of these sound familiar, you're not alone — and noticing them early is one of the most powerful things you can do for your child.

Early identification of dyslexia means earlier support. And earlier support means more confidence, more tools, and a better path forward.
Join us for "Dyslexia: Let's Talk About It" on October 15th from 5:30 – 7: 30 p.m. for a free

in-person or virtual conversation hosted by Jeanine Phillips, Director and Co-Founder of Phillips Fundamental Learning Center. Every third Thursday of the month, online or in-person.

🚨 1 in 5 children is dyslexic— and most go undetected until it's already holding them back.

The earlier you know, the earlier you can act. And early intervention changes everything.

At Phillips Fundamental Learning Center, we believe every child deserves the chance to become a confident, successful reader.

That starts with understanding how they learn.
Is your early grade school child showing any of these signs?

🔲 Difficulty remembering or following verbal instructions
🔲 Confusing left and right
🔲 Struggling to recite nursery rhymes or remember days of the week
🔲 Late to walk or talk
🔲 Trouble focusing on spoken directions
🔲 Reversals in speech or difficulty expressing sounds correctly

If several of these sound familiar — don't wait. Trust your instincts.

Dyslexia is not a sign of low intelligence. In fact, many of the world's most successful entrepreneurs, athletes, and artists are dyslexic. With the right support, your struggling reader can transform into a successful one. 💙
