Intended Audience

Bubble Phonics is an introduction for toddlers to the phonetic sounds of the consonants and short vowels .

The Game

Bubble Phonics provides an entertaining phonics learning experience with colorful bubbles, audio and animated graphics. This serves as the first introduction to phonics for young toddlers. The game begins with an image for a word that starts with either a consonant or short vowel sound, such as an ant for the letter a. Translucent bubbles containing random letters float across the screen inviting your child to choose the bubble containing the letter that makes the beginning sound. For example, a voice instructs "Choose the letter that makes the beginning sound of the word bat". The image of a bat appears. Your child searches the floating bubbles to find the correct letter. A correct response is rewarded with a whimsical animation with sound effect. Otherwise, the child is gently encouraged to try again. A help button is provided, which repeats the word, and the initial sound. Each incorrect selection reduces the set of incorrect letters, eventually leaving only the correct letter.
