| 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. |











| Step 4 Since we have three different colors we're going to paint each color on the two sides opposite each other. |
| Step 5 Ad your final color. Your blocks should now look pretty cute! |
| Step 6 Write a different word ending on each face of the cube. |
| Step 7 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) |
| Time to Play! Have children shake the cubes and roll for their turn. Then have them arrange the blocks to make as many words as they can. As children form the words, let them add up their score. If they miss a word you can help them too! |
| All Done! If you like you can store your game in these handy wooden crates from the Dollar Tree! |
