Game name : Starts With?

Suitable for : 4 - 6 years old.

Concept: Language

Instructions: This game requires you to click on the letter that the spelling of the picture starts with. 4 letters will be shown at once. If you get it wrong, it will show the correct letter to you. But if you get it right? you get lots and lots of points! Nonetheless, you're still a winner at the end!






Why play?
The game itself is filled with colours and pictures that are picked randomly to test the children. Even the buttons containing the letters are coloured! This game is simple, to children who have a wider vocabulary. Simple yet clear pictures are put up for and it allows a child to know what it is at a glance. The rules are as so, that they are clearly stated right at the beginning. If you are not clear about it during the game play, you can always click the "?" button which is beside the speaker button at the top right hand corner.



"My children always get it incorrect!"
Well, why don't you play with your child then?
Parents could provide support to the child by telling them the names of the picture, and get the child to figure out the starting letter! It's the basic step to learning phonics as well!
You could also add in background knowledge of your understanding to the picture, as above the owl, it is a noctunal animal which sleeps in the morning and hunt at night.
Along the way, you could have been increasing your child's word bank!




I RATE:
4/5

This game will benefit children if there is another guardian supports his/her learning.
