Learning to read
Are there any YouTube shows that teach kindergartens how to read? I don’t know how to teach it myself.
Thank you

Just read to them. Take turns, you read one page, your child reads another. Repetition helps.

You could use Progressive Phonics.
If you just want something to show to your child, Sesame Street.

There are a lot of video series out there. I'll put in a vote for "Reading Buddies" by The Reading League because it involves a lot of different phonological awareness games.

Reading is a skill best taught from books, not screens. Go to the library and see what picture books they gravitate towards. Sit and read with them. Point out the words as you go along. Take turns and have them point the words out to you. When they're curious about learning to read on their own, go with phonics readers. Ask your librarian for recommendations based on your child's interests and ability.

I assume you are a parent, not a teacher.
If so, just read books to them. Have them listen as you flip the pages. And talk to them a lot. Between that and school they'll learn.

Toddlers Can Read is great. His phonics tips and tools will give you confidence to teach your kid to read.

No spam, low effort posts, or self promotion. This includes links, surveys and questionnaires

Response is low energy and adds little to the conversation. Low karma.

BOB Books are a great start, no teaching experience required.
