The Phonics pack and the large wooden stand — so the sounds line up into a word a child can read.

Phonics Flashcards — included in Phonics Flashcard Starter Kit
  • Build the word, sound by sound — the stand holds the letters upright so c-a-t becomes something to look at.

A word you can see being made.

Blending is easier when the sounds stay put.

Blending is the hard part of phonics. It asks a child to hold three sounds in their head at once and push them together. The stand takes that job off them — the letters stay in a row, in order, while they sound it out. Swap the first card and the word changes. That is blending made visible.

What's Inside

The Phonics pack and the stand to build on.

  • Phonics Flashcards — 37 double-sided cards, one animal and sound on each, with a name for every animal.
  • Large Wooden Flashcard Display Stand — 34cm of handmade pine, holding a whole word upright.

More than phonics

The kit teaches sounds. Your Happy Little Doer takes away much more.

Habits that last

A little and often builds a routine for life.

A love of learning

Sounds and animals become a game, not a lesson.

Words that click

Seeing the sounds in a row is what makes blending land.

Confidence that lasts

The first word they read alone is the one they remember.
