Amazon.com Teacher Review

Mastering the alphabet or practicing those tough spelling words will be fun with this wood-framed magnetic board and its brightly hued letter magnets. The board measures 12 by 15 inches, and each of the letter magnets stands 1.5 inches tall. The letters have a nice rounded shape and come in primary colors and green. One 5-year-old we know had fun spelling short words, but got frustrated with longer words. Still, this kit provides an excellent start for learning letter names and shapes and simple spelling. --Trilby Cohen has spent most of the past decade as a primary school teacher and reading specialist in north Seattle public schools.

2.0 out of 5 stars A little small for a magnetic board, December 4, 2001

This board is on the small size for a toddler to use. The play scene magnets seem to be too big -- something is always falling off. If you are going to buy a magnet board look for something bigger.

This is an excellent educational tool for teaching you little one letters and spelling. The edge of this board and the letters are made of wood and the letters are painted with bright colors. But I have 2 problems with this toy. First of all, the letters got scratch mark real easy. My kid plays around with those letters for a little while and they're like worn already !The second problem is small pieces of wooden might peel off from the side of the board which I think it might stick into the hands of the kid, be cautious!!
