- The next letter: stop the song suddenly and ask your child to say the next letter.
- With the book: on the alphabet song page in the Kitabcom book, the letters light up in the app as they’re sung.

The Difference Between the Two Songs
| The alphabet song | A letter’s song | |
|---|---|---|
| What does it teach? | The letter names and their order. | The letter’s sound and a word that starts with it. |
| When do we use it? | Every day, from the very start. | With each new letter your child learns. |

Why is there a song for each letter too?
The alphabet song teaches the names and the order; each letter’s song teaches its sound and a word, like: S is for sun. Together, the two build the foundation for reading.
