The letter C is one of the easiest letters for young children to write and serves as a foundation for learning many other letter shapes. Building confidence with C helps children develop the handwriting skills they need as they progress through the alphabet.

Phonics Tip
The letter C most commonly makes the /k/ sound, which can be confusing for children because K makes the same sound. Many early learners have difficulty deciding whether a word starts with C or K.
A helpful way to teach this concept is to compare words that begin with C (such as Cat, Car, and Cup) with words that begin with K (such as King, Kite, and Kangaroo). Seeing and hearing these examples side by side helps children recognize when each letter is used.
