Word Grab Phonetics

☆ COMPREHENSIVE PHONETICS
Word Grab helps your child gain a phonetic understanding of the alphabet and letter combinations, including both long and short vowels, and hard and soft letters. They will practice with a wide variety of phonics in learning to correspond the sounds of language with the visual letters that represent them. Improve phonemic awareness: the ability to recognize that words are made up of individual sounds. Through the game play children blend sounds, build words, and create sets of rhyming words. Customizable settings make it easy to adjust tons of options to suit the individual needs of your child.

☆ WORDS, WORDS, WORDS!
Word Grab features more than 250 words to expand vocabulary, each carefully selected to mirror educational standards . 200 crisp photographic images illustrate the words and provide thorough understanding and correspondence between sound, image, and written word. 200 storybook style sentences put the words in context to help with meaning and usage. Visual highlighting enables children to read along with the words and sentences as they listen to the clear, professional voiceover.

☆ A FRIEND AND GUIDE
Stuck on something? Helpful hints are provided by the friendly monster. The alphabet and word hint cards provide tailored assistance. The friendly monster acts as an interactive companion: watch as it chomps up letters, falls asleep when ignored, wakes when tapped and throws confetti for a job well done. Uncover zooming helicopters, giant balloons, jumping frogs and more beneath its magical hat. This fuzzy friend serves to add dimension, companionship and forward momentum, maintaining the child's interest in game play.

☆ PLAYFUL LEARNING
It's impossible not to smile at the friendly monster, the hilarious hats and the colorful scenes. There are 2 major levels of difficulty (in addition to the variety of individually customizable settings) - ABC Words and Rhyme Time. Each level features 3 scenes to explore, all beautifully illustrated and animated, with popping moles and long-legged flamingoes, outer space exploration and chugging trains. The reward activities (over 20 in all) are awarded at the completion of each set of words. Children give the friendly monster a funny hat to wear then uncover beneath it an interactive surprise!
