It is labeled for ages 3 and up. The letters are small, so younger siblings should be supervised.

52 wooden letters and 28 picture cards. The board measures about 9.6 by 8.3 inches.

How does it teach spelling?

Kids place carved-out letters into the matching cut-out spots on each picture card, so the shape of the word guides them.

Is it better than flash cards?

Buyers say it keeps kids engaged longer than flash cards because it is hands-on and self-checking.

Wipe the wood with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry it right away. Spot clean the cards only.

Does it need batteries or a screen?

No. It is fully screen-free and needs no power.
