An original educational game in which children will enjoy a 3D wooden washing machine and, while “washing” clothing cards, naturally practise correct pronunciation, sound-by-sound segmentation, syllable segmentation, auditory memory, visual perception, and counting. The fun of threading onto strings also supports fine motor skills and working with a set of objects.
Washing Machine – A Word Play Game is an inventive speech-therapy and language game with unusual props. The child puts cards with selected items of clothing into the wooden washing machine, “washes” them, and then hangs them on the strings. The cards have pre-punched holes for easy threading, so fine motor skills are naturally included in the play.
The whole gameplay scenario is a clever pretext for developing speech and other skills. The game supports not only articulation practice, but also phonemic awareness, and work with memory and attention. Thanks to additional cards and accessories, the activities can be varied and adapted to the child’s age.
The game especially develops:
- correct pronunciation, sound-by-sound segmentation, and syllable segmentation
- auditory memory and comprehension
- visual perception and quick recognition
- counting and sorting (selecting items from a set)
- fine motor skills through threading and handling the cards
