Phonics Games

Before your child can learn to read whole words, they first need to get familiar with the sounds each letter can make. In these phonics games, your child will develop their phonological awareness as they discover long and short vowel sounds, consonants, digraphs, and letter blends. Use these phonics games to give your child the tools they need for reading success.

Engaging Phonics Games to Master Reading

Start laying the foundation for your child's reading skills with our collection of phonics games. In these phonics activities, your child will learn to recognize the sounds each letter makes, from mastering the alphabet to more challenging concepts like silent letters, long and short vowel sounds, digraphs, and blending syllables. With animated games that will delight young learners, kids will develop these basic building blocks for reading fluency without feeling daunted by the number of letters or tricky variations. Students will practice their listening skills and memorize letter sounds naturally as they score points to win the game, also growing their knowledge of sight words and simple spelling at the same time. Whether your child is just starting their school adventure in preschool or is already a first grade champion, Education.com has a game to meet their phonics level and help them take that next step toward becoming a reader. Once your child has mastered all their letters, check out our collection of reading games to set them off on their next learning adventure!
