Filled with sounds, songs, and rhymes, Davidson's Kid Phonics provides a wealth of appealing opportunities to discover how sounds and letters knit themselves into words and sentences. In the Sound Buster game, kids hear sound clues and click on different critters called Busters to find a matching sound. Challenges include identifying sounds, songs, rhyming words, words that will end a nursery rhyme, and more.
Every right answer reveals a bit of a hidden scene.
When the whole scene appears, kids can choose a picture and build the word it represents, again by clicking different Busters to hear various phonetic possibilities and dragging the right pieces together. Finally, they can color the picture and print the page for their personal word dictionary. In the Word Builder, kids pick one of 200 pictures and again build the word it represents by finding and assembling the right sounds.
