Frequently Asked Questions

📘 How is word building different from just learning sight words?
Word building helps children understand the systematic nature of our language. Rather than memorizing whole words, they learn how sounds combine to create words—a skill that transfers to reading unfamiliar words independently.

📘 Can my child use this without constant supervision?
Yes! The word cards include pictures and sentences, so children can check their own work. Kids can match their built words to the picture cards for self-checking.

📘 What if I already have magnetic letters?
Perfect! The mats are designed to work with standard magnetic letters. The included printable tiles are an option for those who don't have magnetic letters or want matching themed pieces.

📘 At what reading stage should we start using these mats?
These work best for children who know most letter sounds and are beginning to blend them together—typically children ages 4-7 who are at the emerging reader stage.

Access Instructions

After purchase, you'll receive an email with download links. Simply print the mats and materials on cardstock (recommended for durability), cut out letter tiles if using them, and you're ready to start building words!
