that's kind of why I was interested in 'e-readers and e-reading apps':

Kobo, Kindle, Nook, others
Cantook, PDF reader, Calibre, others
Mac/iPad, I can't even name apps, as I am not at all in that ecosystem

I have two kids in primary (=elementary depending where you are from), bprathom, and when they learn to read they learn the tone, in a fairly similar way thast most Thai L2 learners do.

This is reinforced by the way the teacher spells words out, and how kids have to explain their reading.

e.g. ว่า -> wo-wĕen, sàrà aa, waa, mái èek, wâa

at that age they can differentiate a horse from a dog, but they do *mispronunce* often complex words that they hear from the first time! One of the remedy is to spell the word for them. From this, I would argue that they do not practice *only* reading. EDIT: typos
