Aoife is coming to an age where she is learning her colours and alphabet; she had recently mastered her numbers, so I was keen to get cracking with her alphabet. SRI Toys very kindly sent us their Alphabet Snake to help us out with this!
I found that the Alphabet Snake can be used as a four in one puzzle; learning the alphabet, colours, counting and hand dexterity by putting the pieces together.
To get Aoife going, we started with colours and counting, both of which she breezed through - next came the alphabet which was a bit more challenging for her as it was a fairly new concept.
Now, after a few weeks, she is confidently singing her ABCs around the house and managing to put the snake together correctly with little help.
If you are like me and love a wooden toy or two, definitely check SRI Toys out!
