ABC Games & Alphabet Sounds

Many parents have kids that are soon to enter kindergarten for the first time and are wondering what their kids should know before they head out to school on their own.

As a mom who once taught Kindergarten, I always wanted to make sure my kids are well-prepared and ready to begin their school career with a bit of an advantage by knowing their letters and sounds.

I have seen the value in children knowing their letters early.

That said, I also recognize that kids are kids, and I want to make sure they have time to play – both independently and with me.

Learning Through Alphabet Games

Children acquire knowledge through play, so learning letters at our house is rarely a sit down structured time.

It’s a time of play and games!

The kids have fun and don’t even realize they are learning at the same time. I don’t believe we should leave teaching up to the schools. You get the great honor of being an educator of your child, and you can supplement what is happening at school by engaging your child in enjoyable yet educational ways.

I hope these resources help you feel equipped to take the reins in your own child’s education.

Letter Sounds Games for Kids Online

Children who have learned to read and spell fluently have a strong foundation for their literacy journey. You can catch an avid reader or speller early on if you focus on how they pick up letter sounds.

Letter sounds are usually introduced in preschool. Your child will continue to build on them as he or she grows. Learning can be difficult, tedious, and boring, but you can put the fun into it by using online letter sound games for kids that will keep your child engaged for hours. In time, your child will be familiar with phonetic sounds and great at recalling concepts.

Learning letter sounds games online include letter sound A games, letter sound B games, letter sound C games, all the way upto letter sound Z games. With these games, your little one can practice all the letter sounds from A to Z.

Other ELA games you can explore are: reading games, writing games, phonics games, sight words games, letter tracing games, etc.

Teaching letter sounds can be tricky. Children often get confused and can sometimes take a long time to learn this concept. This can be avoided if a strong letter and sound relationship is created at the beginning. This is the most critical step in helping children learn quickly and easily. Here are some things you can do to bring about a better letter-sound understanding:

Pick the familiar sounds first.

While teaching letter sounds, always encourage visual connections with the letter, both big and small. 

Use music and songs to teach sounds.

Online letter sound games for kids can be used to teach letter sounds with ease and fun.

Interactive letter sound games make learning and practicing letter sounds fun and engaging. They use lovely characters, exciting backdrops, brilliant audios and bright visuals to make practicing letter sounds an enjoyable process.

Children need a lot of exposure to sounds and words to become comfortable with them and games on letter sounds help kids achieve that exposure smoothly. They help kids to learn the sound of the alphabet and also be able to associate it with different words that contain the sound.

Interactive letter sound games for kids provide a holistic learning environment for children. Sounds require an auditory learning process. These games include fun visuals, rhymes and even songs that help kids build the necessary skills needed to practice letter sounds.

Letter sounds games online help teach the concept of letter sounds beautifully. They don’t go too fast or introduce new letters until your child is ready. The more practice and comfort your child achieves, the clearer the concept becomes. These games allow children to read and form associations quickly and effortlessly.

Online letter sound games help kids to trace the letters, identify their sounds distinctively and practice words starting and ending with that letter. They polish their ELA skills and help them to master the language arts at their own pace.

Educate your child using letter sound games and help introduce your child to the world of phonetics. Keep the enthusiastic learner in your child alive by using the best online games available on various apps and websites.

Some letter sound activities for kids are:
Reading recall: Pick any one sound for the day. Start with common vowel sounds like ‘s’, ‘r’, or ‘t’. Say the sound out loud, and get your child to say it too. Read out sentences where the letter is recurring. Ask your child to clap, growl, or jump each time they hear the sound. This is a great attention-building and recognition activity.
No more sound: This is a fun activity that can be practiced when your child has learned a few sounds. Draw a series of pictures on a board and give your child a duster. Now call out a sound, and ask your child to erase all the words that begin with the sound. This may take some practice, but it’s a great way to build a connection between letter sounds and words.

Game and Speech: 6 gesture-based sound evoking games.

First, let's decide in what situation you need to use gestures?

The gesture is useful if the child "sounds" a lot, accompanying his game with separate syllables and sounds, sings something, "speaks his own language", but at the same time refuses to repeat the same syllables after the adult upon request.

If your baby is over one and a half years old, and he is not in a hurry to repeat syllables and words after an adult, it is obviously worth playing imitative sound games with him using gestures. Such games will remove his fear of speech, reduce speech negativism.

Work on evoking sounds based on gestures is especially indicated for children with diagnosed motor alalia, general underdevelopment of speech of 1-2 levels, non-speaking children with autism who still do not repeat words according to instructions, but at the same time already know how to copy the movements of an adult .

‼️How to enter gestures?

The technology for introducing a digital gesture is extremely simple. Choose a simple and motivational game for the child and, repeating it many times, pronounce the same consonant sound, accompanying it with a characteristic gesture. From now on, every time when pronouncing this sound, the child should see the gesture that denotes it. For example, take an inertial typewriter and turn it on, press your lower lip with your index finger several times and make the sound [BBW]. After that, start the machine. Repeat the game many times - from 6 to 10 times. The number of cars / candles / balls should correspond to the number of cycles that you plan in the game. If you were going to repeat the game 10 times, prepare 10 cars. So it will be easier for the baby to sort out how long the game will last, and distribute his strength and attention.

And now let's list the "top" of 6 games for "popular" sounds at the initial stages of work.
Sound [V]
Material: To introduce sound you will need 6-10 machines and a piece of laminate. It is good to use unusual cars that sparkle, or inertial cars that accelerate strongly.

Perfectly suited for this game are flip-flop cars, which turn over when they hit the wall and drive famously in the opposite direction.

Game progress: Put a piece of laminate on a chair and a typewriter on it. Accelerate the toy and show a gesture for the sound [B] with your hand: pressing the lower lip with your index finger several times, pronounce the sound clearly and repeatedly. Release the machine. Repeat the game with each of the cars and remember, the more emotional the game is, the more involved, focused and motivated the child will be.
Sound [D]
Material: you will need flat stones from the sea, a small pot or basin of water and a change of clothes.

Game progress: tap the back of one fist on the other three times, clearly say [DDD]. Throw stones in a basin and rejoice properly. Keep playing until you run out of pebbles. Some children like to throw stones not into the water, but into a container filled with hydrogel, and then "with gusto" pull the stones out of the container, dipping their fingers into the elastic bubble material.

Sound [K]
Material: any cubes. For example, these can be cubes from the "Town" set.

Game in progress. Put the cube on a chair or simply on your hand, hit it sharply with your fist, clearly pronounce the sound [K] and "send" it to the opposite side of the room. Shoot dice-bullets just like that or at the target. The gesture that denotes the sound [K] is a sharply thrown forward fist.

Sound [F]
Material: 10 candles, for example scented candles from Ikea. Matches or an automatic lighter.

Game progress: light a candle, put it at a safe distance from the child and, rotating your open palm from left to right, say an exaggerated sound [Ф]. Move the candle to the child and let him blow out the flame. If your child can't blow, blow out the candle yourself.
You can learn how to teach a child to blow from our articles about non-obvious simulators for the development of articulation. The first part of the article is available HERE and the second part is HERE .
We remind you that children can only play with fire under the strict supervision of an adult. If you are not sure that you will have time to control the movements of the child, this game is not safe. Before you take it on, you need to work on leadership control - that is, teach the child to obey you as part of the task.

Sound [W]
Material: For this game you will need 10 durable balloons.
Game progress: move "to a safe" distance from the child (such that if the balloon bursts, it will not stun or frighten the child). Inflate one balloon and, without tying it, “exaggeratedly” push the balloon from the bottom up with the opposite hand with an open palm, clearly pronouncing the sound [Ш]. Then release the ball. It will fly right up to the ceiling!

Pay attention, if the kid is afraid to play with balloons, because he was once afraid of a balloon bursting nearby - you should not do it "through I don't want to". Better pick another game. Do not inflate the balloons too much, so that they do not burst and scare the baby.

Sound [P]
Cork toy
Material: plastic wine corks. You can collect them while spending time in an adult way😜, or you can purchase a set of 10 plastic corks.

Game progress: Take the cork in your mouth, simultaneously showing the “bird” gesture with your hand, and, sharply closing the thumb of the open palm with closed fingers, clearly pronounce the sound [П]. It is difficult to do this with a cork in your mouth, but, as experience shows, it is possible 😁. After that, blow hard, spitting out the cork.
It is important not to push the "projectile" with your tongue, but to push the cork with a directed air jet. Show your child that corks can become bullets. Shoot the chair, the ceiling, the walls...

The element of comedy will make the activity even more desirable for the baby. Encourage the child to "command" your actions, first with a gesture, showing a "bird" with your hand, and later with a sound.

To evoke each of the described sounds, strictly follow the following steps for introducing sound in all of the games listed:

Stage 1. At this stage, it is important that the child understands how the game works and begins to take part in it. Whether he speaks a sound or not, repeats a gesture or not - at this stage it does not matter.

Stage 2. The second step is to “slow down” on the next turn of the game, prompting the child to “ask” you to continue, showing with his hand a gesture characteristic of this sound. You can help your child make the gesture using a physical prompt. It is important that in the second stage we do not insist that the child pronounce the sound. Only the gesture that he performs on his own is important. The sound is made by an adult.

Stage 3 - when the child encourages you to continue the game, use a gesture to ask him to turn it up. If the child “on emotions” connects the sound to the gesture, the game progresses more cheerfully: the car goes faster, the ball flies higher, not one candle goes out, but three! If the child does not voice the game until it is worth focusing on it, wait 3-5 seconds and say the sound yourself.

Interesting? In the next article, we will tell you exactly how to choose the right sounds for a particular child, what points you should pay attention to so that training gives the best result, how to understand whether the technique is suitable for the child or something else needs to be tried.

Games with sounds - Site of kindergarten №422 "Lorik"

Games with sounds help develop phonetic hearing and phonemic perception.

Phonetic hearing is a fine systematized ear, the ability to distinguish and recognize the sounds that make up a word. Without a developed phonetic hearing, the correct pronunciation of sounds is impossible.

In the case of phonetic underdevelopment, the child mixes voiced and deaf, hard and soft consonants, does not distinguish between whistling and hissing, "R" and "L", "C" and "Ch" and others.

Phonemic perception is the ability to distinguish phonemes and determine the sound composition of a word. How many syllables are in poppy? How many sounds does it have? What consonant is at the end of a word? What is the vowel in the middle of a word? It is phonemic perception that helps answer these questions.

The correct development of phonetic hearing and phonemic perception underlies the unmistakable assimilation of writing and reading in the process of schooling.

We bring to your attention some games that contribute to the development of phonemic processes.

“Select the word”

Invite the children to clap their hands (stomp their feet, hit their knees, raise their hands…) when they hear the words, with the given sound.

“What sound do all words have?”

An adult says three or four words, each of which has the same sound: fur coat, cat, mouse - and asks the child what sound is in all these words.

"Who is more?"

Looking at the pictures in the book together with your child, invite him to find among them those in the names of which there is a sound “P”. for each named word an encouraging point is given.

“Come up with more”

The leader, naming some sound, asks the players to come up with 3 words in which the given sound occurs.

"Chains of words"

This game is an analogue of the well-known "cities". It consists in the fact that the next player calls his word to the last sound of the word given by the previous player. A chain of words is formed: aist - Plate - Watermelon.

“The Fourth Extra”

For the game you will need four pictures with images of objects, three of which contain the specified sound in the name, and one does not. The adult lays them out in front of the child and offers to determine which picture is superfluous and why. The set can be varied, for example: a cup, glasses, a cloud, a bridge; bear, bowl, dog, chalk; road, board, oak, shoes. If the child does not understand the task, then ask him leading questions, ask him to carefully listen to the sounds in the words. An adult can highlight the identified sound with his voice. As a variant of the game, you can select words with different syllabic structures (3 three-syllable words, and one two-syllable), different stressed syllables. The task helps to develop not only phonemic perception, but also attention, logical thinking.

“Young Poets”

An adult gives the child a set of pictures and asks them to arrange them in pairs with similar word endings (mice - donuts, daughters - dots, barrel - kidney, etc.). Before the game begins, you can look at the pictures, drawing the child's attention to the endings of the words denoting the depicted objects. Then, with these pairs of pictures, you can make sentences - couplets, for example:

They lived in a mink - there were mice,

And donuts lay on the table.

"Echo"

The game serves to exercise phonemic awareness and the accuracy of auditory perception. You can play alone or in a large group. Before the game, an adult addresses the children: “Have you ever heard an echo? When you travel in the mountains or through the forest, pass through an archway, or are in a large empty hall, you may encounter an echo. That is, you, of course, will not be able to see it, but you can hear it. If you say: “Echo, hello!”, then it will answer you: “Echo, hello!”, Because it always repeats exactly what you tell it. Now let's play echo." Then they appoint a driver - "Echo", who must repeat what he is told. It is better to start with simple words, then move on to difficult and long ones (for example, “ay”, “rather”, “windbreak”).

Catch a Fish

This game requires a magnetic rod. This is an ordinary stick, tied to it on a string with a magnet. Clips are put on pictures from any children's loto. The child catches with a fishing rod only those pictures in the name of which there is a certain sound, selected in advance. Or a child catches a picture and calls the sound with which its name begins.

"Jokes - minutes"

You read lines from poetry to children, intentionally replacing letters in words. Children find a mistake in a poem and correct it. Examples :

Patterned tail,

boots w t orami.

Tili-bom! Tili-bom!

Catkin t ohm caught fire.

Outside the window is a winter garden,

There the leaves in and glasses are sleeping.

"Beginning, middle, end"

Teach children to identify the place of sound in a word - at the beginning, in the middle, at the end. Offer to find in the picture, among the pictures of the loto, words that start with A and end with A. Or just offer to determine the place of the sound in the word.

“Think, take your time”

Give the children a few quick-witted tasks:

– Choose a word that begins with the last sound of the word “table”.

- Remember the name of the bird, which would have the last sound of the word cheese. (sparrow, rook ...)

- Choose a word so that the first sound is "k" and the last is "a".

- Invite the child to name an object in a room with a given sound.
