    As a primary school teacher I am often sceptical about electronic phonic games as they are often phonically incorrect or have phonic 'flaws', however I bought this for my 'just' four year old and he loves it! It is phonically correct and it reads 2 letters as one sound when they make one sound for example e and a as 'ee' when in the word 'sea'. It uses letter names as well as sounds (something which is now mentioned within the new early years framework) and encourages children to play around with the words to make new ones, so good for pre-school children who may have only just started to be interested in letters.

    The only reason it has lost a star is because for me it could reinforce the letter sounds a bit more though I guess that's me being a picky teacher! Definitely a toy that you will enjoy helping your child to use - particularly if you have no idea how to help to introduce your child to words and letters. It doesn't have to be on the fridge - works just as well on the table. As I mentioned definitely one of the best phonic/word games for 3+yr olds I have seen and it is a very reasonable price.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and effective! 5 Jun 2009
    My son loves this. He has been very slow in his reading ability and this was great fun for him to use. It still stays on the fridge door and all the children use it to make words. The older ones try words like 'poo' - which it does not understand and gets them to try again! They all think it very funny - and it helps with the learning I suppose! The different levels are great for moving on. Good value for money.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Leapfrog Magnetic Word Builder 22 Jan 2010
    On the whole I am very impressed with this. My daughter has just started school (she is 4) and is currently working on her phonics. The only thing I would say that is negative is the sound is not particularly clear and you can only turn it up slightly, which means some of the letters are difficult to understand.
