CVC words are excellent for introducing kids to the magic of transforming simple sounds into words. Kids learn the concept that words have a beginning, middle, and ending sound that together create a word. This is an integral part of any pre-reading program. Our "Spell with Pups" gives a fun twist to learning to spell & read using colorful boards with colorful puppies encouraging kids to sit engaged for longer. Introduce reading & phonics to your preschooler and kindergartener with 3-letter CVC words (consonant-vowel-consonant words). Our wooden 3-Letter Word Builder is designed to teach letter blending and rhyming in a tactile way that fosters self-correction and independent learning. It is Montessori-inspired and a core piece to your set of Montessori materials and homeschool learning toys. Letter p can be inverted and used as d. Similarly letter b can be inverted and used as q. Suggestions: Introduce one letter board at a time. Toy Contains- 5 puppy boards come with the 5 vowels a-e-i-o-u already engraved, as well as 26 letter tiles that enable children to practice CVC word building
