Meet the Alphablocks
Alphablocks are 26 letters and when combined by holding hands they form words. Like the numbers of Numberblocks, each letter has its own distinct personality and often finds itself in hilarious situations in their world.
To distinguish the vowels, A, E, I, O, and U have stripes on their bodies.
How they’re introduced
As a learning program, the Alphablocks have five steps in introducing the kids to phonetics and spelling. Level one is all about recognizing the letter sound. On the other hand, level two is about introducing the less-known letters. Meanwhile, level three tackles combining two letters or more.
Level four introduces the kids to a combination of consonants while level five introduces learners in how long vowel sounds are made.
