Welcome to Phonics Play & Learn! This fun and interactive programme will give little discoverers a strong start to learning letters and their sounds, which is also called Phonics. Becoming aware of letters and their sounds is key to helping children learn to read and write. But the key to all skills is practice, practice, practice!
