What Skills Can Your Little Ones Learn And Develop?

Printable phonics puzzles for preschool and kindergarten - W Y Z beginning sounds

These beginning sound puzzles are designed to help your children practice and develop their early reading skills, such as:

  • Segmenting – this is the ability to break the word into its different sounds
  • Letter recognition – knowing what the written form (letters) of the sounds look like

And they’ll also be able to develop other skills such as:

  • Fine motor skills – as they pick up and move the pieces
  • Hand-eye coordination – to ensure they can move and line up the pieces
  • Problem solving – they’ll have to work out how to put the puzzle together correctly using their problem solving skills. Will they work methodically, one piece at a time until they’re happy it looks right? Will they use trial and error to see what works?
  • Shape And Geometry – being able to rotate the pieces and understanding how the different parts of the puzzle fit together
  • Patience – they may have to try lots of configurations before they complete the puzzles
