| This game is great for children who are learning basic phonics and early reading skills. Children match up letter blocks to word-ending blocks to create new words. Keeping score for each assembled word makes this a fun and engaging activity for multiple children. |
| Step 3 Start painting your blocks. |
| Step 2 colored paints which are complementary to black marker showing through. (We also used a paint pen) |
| Step 1 Choose how many blocks you want for your game. We are using 6 word ending blocks, and 3 letter blocks. |
- Acrylic Paint & Brush
- Sharpie or Paint Pen
- Wooden Cubes (Craft Store)
| Materials |
| Step 5 Let them dry in between paintings just enough to handle. |
| Step 4 Since we have three different colors we're going to paint each color on the two sides opposite each other. |
| Step 7 Ad your final color. Your blocks should now look pretty cute! |
| Step 6 Don't worry about the paint lining up on the edges. I left them with borders intentionally.....looks Fab that way anyway! |
| Step 10 Write a different word ending on each face of the cube. |
| Step 9 |
| Step 8 Let them dry for a while! |
| Step 12 For older children you can use three letter word endings. |
| Step 11 Fill all your cubes up with word endings. |
| Step 14 Write different consonants on each of the blocks. It took three blocks to get most of the letters (no X, Q or Z in our game) |
| Step 13 |
| Step 16 arrange the blocks to make as many words As children form the words, have them as they can, then let them add up their score. If they miss a word you can help them too! |
| Play the Game! Children roll the dice and make words from the letters and the endings that come up. |
| All Done! If you like you can store your game in these handy wooden crates from the Dollar Tree! |
