I picked this one out of many options because I loved the way that it was presented. I loved the wood, the colors, the flashcards. Each one had differences but this one just looked extra special. I want to slowly get my son familiar with the words so I love that at first he can see the letters and then later you can use the second set of cards and tear off the words. Perfect! So far he has had fun with it though it doesn't hold his interest for long because he is in a car stage. Even just a few minutes a day is fine with me to start with. And it is made so well. I love the wooden look and how they are based around the differently colored vowels. It is such a great price. And really, if it helps him learn to read, it is invaluable.

Awesome

Awesome activity for preschoolers!

This is a well-constructed teaching tool for youngsters, and I'm impressed with the overall design and quality of the product.However, the word choices on the cards and some of the visuals are a little odd. I know there are limitations on 3-letter word possibilities, but very young learners need simple words and visuals to grasp the concepts of word building and spelling.Some of the words with the visuals are:WORD VISUALcat catpig pighat hatban "the NO sign"hag witchcog gearspet dogSo, cat, hat, pig, ham, and others are great. But not to have "dog" (an easy 3-letter word) with the picture of the dog is beyond me. Most of the cards are good, just some seemed like odd choices, in my opinion.I do like the set and will probably make my own cards on my printer using cardstock.

It kept a 5 year old engaged. She was able to manipulate the cards and spell out words with blocks

Perfect reading helper . . . a great way for a little one to feel successful when first trying to read!

The stand is worthless. The card does not stay in place, the cards are a bit thin, and the stand falls over every time. Besides those things my child enjoys this activity. We just put the cards and letters on the table or floor. However, I would buy again if there was a cheaper option without the stand.

Nicely made
