This is a great game to practice remembering letter sounds and blending them. Have your child make the sound of each letter in the word and see if they can "hear" the word that the sounds are making. If this is still difficult for them you can make the 3 sounds and see if they can hear the word. We have been practicing blending words in class. They have been guessing my secret word! We have been enjoying this little game. This is an important pre-reading skill that can be lots of fun to practice.
