A couple weeks ago, when I first ordered the purse storage, I received a notification saying that it had been “delivered” but the package I received was NOT what was ordered, but some small electronic box thing. (I still doing really know what it was). So I filled out all of the important papers to return it and get what I had actually ordered on its way.
Well, the next day I got a package! Yay! The right thing came!
NOT. As we opened it ONCE AGAIN, it was the wrong package.
At least, that is what we thought…until we saw a gift receipt in the box! My wonderful sister had sent us a package! She found this game and bought it for her almost 4 year old and she wanted to share it with us.
This is Spout & Spell, by Fisher Price. (Link is at end of this post or in the shop) To play this game, you roll the die, push the gold star on the whale the number you rolled, and then with the tiles he spouts out of his mouth you try and spell the letters on your cards. There are both three and four letter words on these cards.
WE LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH! It is great for kids of all ages. It is perfect for those who are learning to count, learning their letters, or learning to spell, but also fun for older kids. I enjoy playing it probably as much as my 4 year old! The rules are simple enough and the only skills required are counting and letter recognition, or even just matching.
Since I don’t put my daughter in preschool, I am always on the look out for ways to teach her letters and numbers. We have loved using this to help solidify the letter names. I can’t wait to use this when she begins to read and spell. This is a great tool to have!
