Make phonics practice feel like a game with these Phonics Prompt Challenge Stick Kits! Each hands-on kit invites children to pick a prompt stick, find the matching letters, and build the answer—one sound, word, or challenge at a time.
With three levels of difficulty, these kits grow right alongside your learner. They are perfect for preschool, kindergarten, first grade, homeschool, literacy centers, small groups, morning work, or screen-free learning at home.
A built-in self-correction feature
Every alphabet piece is designed for easy, independent self-correction. One side of each letter is gray, while the correct letter side is white. Before beginning an activity, children simply turn all of the pieces so the white letter sides are facing up.
If a letter is accidentally flipped, the gray side makes it easy for children to notice that it needs to be turned over—helping ensure letters are always facing the correct direction for matching, spelling, and word building. This simple feature encourages independence while reducing frustration for both children and adults.
Easy and Medium Kit includes full upper and lower set. Hard Kit contains only lowercase letters with many multipoles of popular letters for word building.
