Dated: 26th of June, 2009
My stepdaughter saw the bright coloured box and wanted me to open them right away to see what it was in the box. As we opened it she was getting really excited, and once it was opened we had a look at the brightly coloured cards. The instructions were clear and to the point of how it all works.
She could tell me what a vowel was and also identify which each of the pictures were, also she could tell me what lettyer it started with. The shapes of the cards are shaped like a bunch of grapes, it makes them look good and it makes them more of a fun way to learn.
The cards are easy for small hands to grip, and they have a spare card where you can add your own words. The cards could be more durable or laminated, as they are quite flimsy and easy to rip. Also the crayons don't work that well on the card, and they seem to break quite easily.
Overall we thought this was a fun and a good way to spend some time together.
