Spanish See & Spell Educational Language Learning Toy, Early development & activity toys, Puzzle, Wooden puzzle, Gift for 4 year old boy or girl

I bought this as a birthday present for my 3 year old grandson and he finds it lots of fun. I am very pleased with the quality and sturdiness of the product. There are 8 double sided boards showing a picture and the spelling of the word is carved out so the letter shapes can be inserted. There are 50 wooden letters. It is a fun way to learn the alphabet and spelling of small words. I have bought several products of Melissa & Doug and have found them all to be excellent quality and value for money.

As usual a beautifully made, educational toy from Melissa and Doug. My 3 1/2 year old couldn't wait for me to unwrap it for her. The quality is excellent, with lovely pictures, plenty of letters and a variety of words to complete. Very helpful when trying to encourage letter recognition, phonics and learning to associate letters with simple words. The only downside is the lovely storage 'box' is more a storage 'tray', it has no lid! Every time my daughter gets the box from it's shelf, she spills a few letters, despite her being exceptionally careful. It's a shame that something as simple as a lid has been missed.

My 3 year old son had showed an interest in the alphabet so I searched the internet for a suitable toy to promote his learning. This was an excellent purchase. He has had it for about a year now and he still plays with it every single day. At first he used the tiles included to learn how to spell the words then he began to use the letters to spell the words without the tiles and now he uses them to spell everything! Every letter of the alphabet is included which is not the case with other toys we have bought for him. My son finds words on his posters and on products and uses the letters to spell the words he finds. He can now spell loads of different words outloud and it is all thanks to the presentation and quality of this wonderful toy. It is what I would describe as an 'heirloom' toy which I will keep when he is older to give to his own children who I am sure will love it just as much as he does.

Excellent learning resource!! My son loves letters and puzzles so when I saw this thought it is a perfect marriage of the two. This is fantastic. Sturdy, durable and attractive. I am really impressed and my son absolutely loves this! We use it for letter recognition and to link the visual image to the words. In this way I Ama able to introduce him to reading and the relationship between letters and words all whilst enjoying playing with his new puzzle! My only complaint is that there is no cover. It is beyond me why so many toy manufacturers fail to incorporate this into their toy design. My only other complaint isone of the letters were not printed properly . Nonetheless this is an excellent product which I know ei'll last my 2.5 year old for a long time!!

I've been buying Melissa and Doug toys for several years now and have always been impressed by their quality, durability and attractiveness. I bought these puzzle word boards because my son now recognises all his letters and is becoming interested in forming some short words. This set includes eight double-sided puzzle boards showing the picture and accompanying words for: bird, frog, duck, boat, cake, sock, hen, sun, pig, cow, cat, dog, car, bus, fish and bear. There are enough letters so eight boards can be completed without having to put them away after each word. As usual, I'd recommend this set although a lid on the storage box would have been helpful!

Easter is always a problem when grand kid is special needs and diary intolerant. This toy was excellent for him instead of an easter egg. He loves his school and this was a perfect toy to help with his letters and spelling. He also loved it as he is really getting into learning his letters, and can sign them very well. It is a very good toy for co ordination too. It is excellent to help recognise words. I would say all reception kids would benefit from this excellent toy making learning fun.

My toddler is due to start school soon but he has only been talking for a year so he still have quite a way to go with pronunciation and learning the alphabet so we’ve been using this and a book I ordered called getting ready for preschool by a.a GIRLING and it’s really helping him a lot. When reciting the abcs he does get a bit jumbled after G but that’s a massive improvement. His pronunciation of the words and letters are improving as well and it’s the type of learning he enjoys which is great as usually the homework from the speech therapist frustrates him because he’s bored but with this puzzle and the book he views it as play time so he absolutely loves it and annoys me by getting all the puzzle pieces out on the floor of the living room I cleaned 2 minutes ago!

Good for learning the alphabet, the sounds of letters and matching them to pictures. Good quality product. I bought it for a 3 year 4 month year of age child and she loves it. She enjoys making the puzzle, pronouncing the letters and saying the words of the corresponding pictures. It's a good educational and development puzzle product.

Ne ho acquistati due,uno per mio figlio e l'altro per un regalo che è stato ben gradito. Ottimo e divertente modo per apprendere l'alfabeto inglese.

Perfect.

The name Melissa and Doug immediately gives the impression that the toy is educational, made to last and safe/fun for kids to play with anytime. A couple of years ago we had been given a puzzle for a gift and we were missing one piece for the puzzle, so I called the customer service to help us out with replacing the puzzle piece. I was immediately impressed with the fact Melissa and Doug company did not have an automated message for you to chose options from for customer service support. I waited no longer than 5 minutes to speak to a representative about getting the puzzle replace if possible, and we had it mailed to our home in less than 6 weeks. After having spoken with customer service in regards to replacing the puzzle, I am convinced that this is a great company and they make so many amazing products that has something for every household, age group and safe for kids to play with always. My son had this product in his pre-k class last year. I have been thinking about buying this for us to have in our home and he was interested in this product right away. This product is perfect for my 5 year old to learn how to spell words, identify letters, and to build his sight word vocabulary at the same time. My hope is that it will help the 2 year old to strengthen his fine motor skills while he is starting to learn about the letters on each of the boards in this product. I have high hopes that this product will help my 2 year old that has some developmental delays, to start his interest in letters, words and identifying pictures while he is building his spoken vocabulary.

Thin wood, easily to break. Too big box for the puzzle.

Love this wooden puzzle!
