Children will love to form CVC words with this lacing bead set. Cards are initially laid out with the yellow side facing up to show the picture of the CVC word. Children pick a card and identify the missing CVC word, form the word using a string and beads, then lay the word on top of the card. Cards are self-checking with answer on the reverse. All the letters and sounds in this set are from phase 2 of the Letters & Sounds programme, and beads are orange to match. Beads are 15-26mm wide and 29mm high. Beads can be used independently to create pseudo words to check phonic recognition. Set includes 90 beads, 30 double-sided cards (12x10cm), 30 strings (17cm long) and a clear storage box. Suitable for ages 4+.
