10 Early Literacy Sliding Books

Early Literacy Sliding Books are designed to be some of the first books that your young child can read. Children get to see sentences on the main pages of the book and then again on the sliding tabs. These board books with sliding tabs are from the creators of Your Baby Can Learn! Our new Early Literacy Sliding Books are designed to teach children literacy skills including learning to read individual words, phrases, sentences, and books as well as introducing phonics skills. Early Literacy Sliding Books are color-coded by volume and include Body Parts, First Words, Actions, Numbers, Animals, Colors/Colours, Feelings, Objects, Animal Rhymes, and Word Patterns. For babies, toddlers, and young children aged 3 months to 7 years.

10 Double-Sided Sliding Phonics Cards

Sliding Phonics Cards allow your young child to learn analytical phonics through play! Have fun forming over 70 rhyming words by pulling the image and letter tabs. Part of the Your Child Can Read series—the follow-up to the Your Baby Can Learn program. These cards have been redesigned for a new version!

177 Shape Bias Language Cards

177 double-sided cards with words, pictures, and descriptive sentences. These cards are numbered to match the Teaching Cards and are designed to help the child learn the shape bias. The shape bias is an important concept for babies and toddlers because the rate of word learning improves once the child learns that the shapes of objects (such as chairs, books, cups, etc.) generally provide more information about the objects’ functions than their colors, textures, sizes, or materials. The front of the cards shows the same words with different fonts and colors. This side of the cards is designed to help the child learn that words’ shapes are more important than their colors, specific fonts, or background colors. The back of each card has a photo and a descriptive sentence demonstrating the word’s meaning. These cards are a redesigned version with a new box!

Includes language development tips and a word cover to help isolate individual words.
