Learn Tricky Words for Kids

The Tricky Word Activity Flashcards Bundle includes two packs, Reception & Year 1 and Year 2 designed to make these frequently used Tricky Words easy and fun! Simply designed and split into three groups featuring Happy Little Doers’ signature range of fun learning activities.

Tricky Words, also known as ‘Common Exception’ or ‘Red Words’, are those that do not follow the recognised phonetic spelling rules.  Many of these Tricky Words are frequently used in day-to-day life, so it’s essential for children to learn these in order to become fluent readers.

The Tricky Word (Reception & Year 1) pack is split into 3 groups. The Tricky Word (Year 2) pack is split into 4 groups. Each card belongs to one of these groups, indicated with a corresponding number of red dots. Repetition is key in learning Tricky Words, so be sure to go back and revisit each group. The activities included are designed to make learning these words fun!

The national curriculum for Year 1  and Year 2 sets out the Tricky Words / Common Exception words that need to be learnt by children in school, so these cards are ideal to help at home.
