Is there any software out there on the market for the purpose of
teaching VERY YOUNG children (ages 1-4, for example) to read?  I'm
thinking of something that shows very large, easy to read letters,
in conjunction with the Doman program.  Interactive game playing
is not necessary.  I'd prefer it for an IBM PC clone (the AT&T
6300) but I'm interested in others as well.

Matt has done quite well with Doman's cards, but he's run out of
the preprinted cards, and it's a lot of work to print up new cards.
At the rate he's picking up new words, I'd have to spend 2 hours
per day making cards.  (He's now 3, and starting to read phonetically.)
