Phonic alphabet learning

We are helping DS learn the alphabet. Any tips for apps/videos so he can pronounce them correctly?

We taught as ABC but understand schools now learn as abc so want to teach him again!

Jolly phonics sounds video Jolly phonics songs we use to teach each sound, there are actions that go with each one which can help children remember as they make links between action and phoneme and grapheme.

But do sing the alphabet song too! Letters have names (alphabet) and sounds too.

Our school does read write Inc.

How old is he? If he's approaching school age, maybe find out what your chosen schools use?

Apps aren't great, I find, as even the UK ones don't match our accent, so some things esp vowels don't sound right.
