Peaceable Kingdom Alphabet Go Fish Letter Matching Card Game with 52 Oversized Cards Card Games for Kids Ages 4+ 2 to 6 Players

My daughter is 2 1/2, and she has always been resistant to learning the alphabet. She doesn’t like making guesses about what a letter is, and she often won’t even tell us the letter names that she does know. We have letter toys everywhere in our house, but I hadn’t really found anything that would be engaging for her and also help her learn the letters. She’s old enough now to start learning how to play some games, and I came across this set. I’m so glad I bought it for her! My husband and I play with her where one of us is on her team. We’ve only had the game for two days, but already she is improving at her ability to retain the letter names because now she has motivation to practice them while we play. This is seriously the only letter toy we have (out of many) that I have seen any real results with for my child. The cards themselves are very nice and thick, laminated. Some of the reviews were confusing, but these cards come with 2 identical cards of each letter with an uppercase letter and a picture in the center of the card, then the uppercase and lowercase letter together in the corner of the card, too. I considered another set before buying these where one card had uppercase and one lowercase letters on the matching cards. I’m really glad I went with these instead because at my daughter’s age I think it is important that the cards “match” and are simple for her. The fact that there are only two of each card (vs. 4 in some sets) has not been an issue at all. The game is really fun! I don’t know if it would be a problem if you played with more than two players, though.

This is a great game for kids learning their letters and sounds! High quality cards, vibrant pictures, easy to play game

Wonderful learning Xmas gift

Great quality! My daughter loves it and quickly learned all her letters

Have had these cards for 4 grandchildren. Bought the same brand for a gift because of the quality and fun we've had playing over the years

Not opened at this time. Due to being a Christmas gift. The box appears like a useful tool for learning the alphabet. We are excited to use it after Christm

Cute game for kids. My 4 granddaughter loves playing it. Good quality..

Played these as soon as we got them. My 3, 4, and 6-year-old all enjoyed. Using to help my younger two with their letter recognition and it seems to be working! When it was my older two's turn we would also say some of the letter sounds or words that started with that letter. "Do you have a D as in Dog?" for example. The cards are thick (almost a laminated type of feel). I have no doubt they'll last us while we need them as long as I actually put them away after the games haha. They're bigger cards so we used less cards at a time for my 3-year-old to be able to hold all of them - but was a non-issue and made them easy to read. Sometimes letters are printed weird on their posters or homework - not in a way that they would write the letter. These all seemed to be standard writing and easily recognizable or easy to copy if they wanted to.

My 4 year old loves playing with these Go fish cards. My only complaint would be that some of the pictures are not all phonetically aligned. Most of them are, but then you get thrown a curve ball with ones like Unicycle which makes a phonetic Y sound not an U sound. They also contain pictures that are quite America specific like the "wagon" for W which means nothing to most British children. However I'd still give these a 5 because they are really fun to play with.

Great cards to help younger children learn their letter names and sounds. My children like to play Go Fish and memory using these cards

Great way to have fun with kids!

This is a great game; my daughter is only three, and we play open face to practice and identify letters.

Fab gift for my grandchild.
