Yoto Card - Phonics: Letters And Sounds: Phase 1

Giving little ones the tools the decode written and spoken language and understand the world around us.

Phonics are an essential part in language learning, this series from Yoto features 7 interactive audio cards all based on the UK National Curriculum. Kids from the ages of 3+ can listen to a range of interactive exercises and learn to associate letters and words with speech, speak more confidently, hear and repeat musical patterns as well as identifying sounds from their daily life. 

This series includes:

What's That Sound? - This card develops your child's environmental awareness and listening skills by having them distinguish between sounds from daily life - from a dog barking to the sound of a lawnmower.
What's That Instrument? - This card asks your child to identify the different sounds instruments make, and identify these visually using the supplied guide.
Body Beats - This card develops your child’s ability to copy sounds and rhythms by stomping their feet, clapping their hands and more. Identifying and copying patterns is key to kids' social and intellectual development.
Rhythm & Rhyme - This card helps your child recognise that some words rhyme and encourage them to find pairs of rhyming words, which is a vital foundation to reading aloud with articulation and expression.
Tongue Testers - This card introduces your child to alliteration (when two or more words have the same initial sound) and encourages them to consider the different sounds words are made up of.
Make That Sound - This card encourages children to use their mouths to make fun (and often funny!) sounds. Making different vocal sounds develops children’s pronunciation confidence and awareness of the many sounds that make up speech. 
Make That Word - This card introduces your child to blending and segmenting - breaking words down into the sounds they are made up of and putting them back together again. This is the final step before entering the more formal aspects of learning to read.
