I'm not a parent, but am definitely a doting uncle to several nieces and nefews.
Here's what I did at that age. Playschool (I think) had this cool electronic book where the kids push some buttons and then hit play and it told a story. It was picture based so they didn't have to be spelling anything. I know 1yo is kinda young for this kind of thing but I gotta tell ya, my youngest niece was learning to spell at the ripe old age of 2yo - in part I suspect because this was her favorite toy and also because my sis is a FREAK when it comes to educating her kids. I went to dinner at her house one night and had to take a piss, I walk in the bathroom and there are labels EVERYWHERE. I finish my bidness and come out and asked her what the hell were the labels for, her response: "Oh, Lydia is learning to read."
I about fell out.
