I love the Hooked on Phonics system. When I realized my daughter still wasn't learning to read over halfway through Kindergarten (because of the school's heavy sight-reading based approach), I got the Kindergarten level HOP and she was reading in less than two weeks. I've since used level K, 1st grade, and 2nd grade for my son, who needs a lot more routine phonics practice because of his dyslexia.

What I love about the program is that it teaches specific sounds and combinations and then uses only those in the readers/phonic books, so that when the kid gets to the book, he really doesn't struggle. It's a real confidence booster. Despite sticking to pre-taught sounds and words, the books are not badly written. They aren't great literature, but they are better than many leveled readers I've checked out at the library in the past. The system is also well paced so that you can complete an entire lesson or sometimes even two in a reasonable sitting, and it's designed so that the reading of books is broken up by the reading of stories which is broken up by the reading of words. There's a sense of steady progression and familiar routine that makes it appealing to my child.

I have never made use of the included DVDs. I don't really see the point. This is a system that requires one-on-one instruction by the parents, and the DVD just goes through sounds you could go through more quickly yourself.

The only downside is that these programs are highly priced for what you get – in this case, 2 reading workbooks, 8 short readers, and a writing workbook. However, because I have found the program to be so useful, I have been willing to buy it. I will likely get the next level as well.
