Best Phonics Toy I've Found
Too bad they have raised the price some (only about $10.00 though), However - I would pay that price as it is one of my favorite learning toys for children. My daughter played with this for years and eventually taught herself to read starting with Charlotte's Web at age 5 (her comprehension was low, but her ability to sound out the words was excellent for her age - and she persisted to the end). Of course, we didn't watch much T.V. when she was younger, but I really feel this toy deserves a great deal of the credit, and worked well for how my daughter prefers to learn. I highly, highly recommend it!
