Reading games and activities

CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words are the first words that children start to read when they learn to blend sounds into words.

This versatile puzzle board game is really three games in one! With three different levels of difficulty, this game can be used to teach medial vowel sounds, CVC words and basic spelling.

Suitable for up to four players, children can spin the spinner and move their pop-out counter the requisite number of squares. Depending on the level of play, children can either identify the medial vowel, say the CVC word or spell it out. When the answer has been given, the child can pick up the puzzle piece and look underneath to see if they are correct.

Buzzle game board measures 370x270mm.
