Learning to Read Through Play
There is one way to divide children into two groups. Those that love to read and children that will do anything to avoid reading. Many parents bargain, plead, punish, make deals and still can't get their kids to crack open a book. The secret is to make it fun. Knowledge gained through play is the easiest and most effective way for children to learn any task, including reading.Wordspot is a great way for kids to learn to read and they'll be having so much fun doing it they won't notice they'll learning!
The object of the game is very simple. Find hidden words among the lettered tiles and mark them using the included WordSpot tokens. Words may be spelled in almost any direction. They can go up, down, across, backwards, and diagonally. The first player to use all of his or her tokens wins the game!
This game is so easy to learn and kids will play round after round. Not only are they developing their cognitive skills for recognizing words quickly no matter what order they are laid out in, your kids will be encouraged to awaken the creative sides of their minds and create new words.
When your child has mastered small words in this game, increase the minimum word length to accomodate growing skill levels. This is a great game to have on hand to keep the kids busy and interested, adults too enjoy this game. If you're tired of toys that are little more than gadgets that don't expand the minds of your children and teach them little to nothing, get them a fun toy that will let them learn to read and enjoy every minute of it.
