Magnetic words click onto the board as a child sounds each one out.

🔤 Reading confidence – 45 introductory sight words with magnetic backing, chosen from common words in preschool and kindergarten books
🧲 Hands-on practice – words lift off and slide back on, so children can build, check and rebuild without any pressure
✏️ Writing practice – the reverse of the board has writing lines, and a whiteboard pen is included
🔇 Quiet play – soft clicks and pen strokes only, so it suits a quiet table or floor corner
👫 Flexible play – works for solo practice or a parent and child working through the words together

The Educator's Note

Children handle each word physically, picking it up, saying it and placing it. That repetition is what moves a sight word from guessed to recognised, and a worksheet can't give that same hands-on practice.
The words come from the vocabulary of preschool and kindergarten books, so practice at home matches what children meet in their first readers.
The board and the lined reverse side let a child go from building a word to writing it, using the pen in the box. That's a natural reading-to-writing progression in a single set.

Words lift off and click back onto the magnetic board, so children can build and rebuild the first words they meet in early readers. The reverse side has writing lines, and the whiteboard pen is already in the box.

The set suits kindergarten age, around 4 to 6 years. That's when children move from naming letters to recognising whole words on sight, and need plenty of low-pressure repetition to get there.

Also available in a great value bundle

This set suits children who are ready to move from letters to whole words:

Children starting kindergarten (around 5 years) who are meeting their first reading books and need repeated, hands-on exposure to common words
4-year-olds in preschool who know most of their letters and are curious about the words around them
Early readers aged 5 to 6 who still guess at familiar words and need extra practice recognising them quickly
Parents and carers looking for a quiet, low-prep way to support reading practice at home, solo or together

Words they can pick up, move and check

Sit a child down with this set and the first thing you'll notice is how physical the learning becomes. Each of the 45 introductory sight words has a magnetic backing, so a child picks one up, says it, and presses it onto the board. If it's the wrong word, it lifts straight off again. Lifting and placing each magnet also builds the finger control children need for writing.

That matters for the early reader who guesses at words instead of recognising them. Sight words are the short, common words that turn up on almost every page of a first reader. Handling them over and over, rather than seeing them once on a worksheet, helps them become automatic.

From recognising to writing

The board does a second job. Flip it over and the lines on the reverse give children a place to practise writing the words they've just built, using the whiteboard pen in the box. It's a natural next step once they can read a word: build it, say it, then write it.

Play is quiet, with only the soft click of magnets and the squeak of a pen. That makes it easy to use at the kitchen table, in a reading corner, or alongside a sibling doing homework. Children at the kindergarten stage, around 4 to 6 years, can work through it alone, and a parent can step in to set a challenge such as 'find the word that starts with the same sound as your name'.

Where it fits

This is an introductory set, so it suits children who are just starting to read whole words. It pairs well with a home reading routine, the books coming home from school and, once they're ready for a game format, ThinkFun - Zingo! Sight Words Game. As their word recognition grows, the same words become building blocks for simple sentences, which is where the practice starts to pay off. You'll find more options in our Literacy & Numeracy range.

The set includes small magnetic pieces and is not suitable for children under 3 years.
