Kids Online Letter Games

Educational online games??
I have a daughter who is 5 1/2. She struggles in school with her reading and writing, she is behind the other kids. I want her to be ready for grade 1 in the fall, so my question is….does anyone know of some good web sites that have good educational games in the reading and letter recognition areas?
thanks!!!
It is not an online game, but it is a reasonably priced computer game for kids.
The product is called JumpStart. I used it when I was younger, and I absolutely loved it! The product has different computer games for all ages and for all grade levels.
You can see a few on this site:

I would highly recommend these games. I believe they could really help your daughter have fun while learning new things! I hope she enjoys them as much as I did.
