I'll stick with the tried and true methods. The grandkids are going to learn (at least) the Greek alphabet (upper case and lower case) this summer. 3 kids, ages 2 1/2 to 7. Whiteboard and an eraser. Repetition. Rewards for doing well.

No matter what they do in life, from engineering to medicine, learning the Greek alphabet will be beneficial.

JRandomFreeper’s grandkids 30 years from now: “Remember when grandpa used to make us read greek?...that was really lame”. ‘yeah, I remember. Pass that neutrino gauge. I think I’ve got the plasma wavelength adjusted so we’ll get another light year faster on the outbound’.

Teach them the Jewish Alphabet and to read and write Cantonese, if you want to prepare them for the real world future.
