Think and Blink Alphabet Flash Cards a Review

The 3D Think and Blink Alphabet Flashcards are 26 brightly colored cards with a holograph on one side that goes between a letter and a picture of an easily recognized object set above the word written in lower case. The reverse side has a different picture, the letter shown in capital and lower case and then the picture name written out. Recommended for ages 3-6 these flash cards are great for kids who are just learning the alphabet and will still engage children who are starting to decode and read.

The holograph is a unique feature of these cards that allows the child to quickly see the letter and the picture with a simple movement. While the letter never fully disappears it does not affect the clarity of the object and vice versa.

The pictures are common objects that can be identified by most preschool aged children. The only problem my son had was calling the items by different names. For example he kept calling the ant a bug. While an ant is a bug I had a bit of trouble explaining to him that that particular bug was called an ant.

My son has recently started to take an interest in beginning letters. We often spend an hour or more each day talking about what letter various words start with. The holograph on the cards is a great way for him to learn what those words begin with. He gets so exited when he can come to me and tell me what a word begins with.

The cards have held up well to my sons’ typical play, much better then I am used to seeing with flash cards. The corners have not frayed. The cards are well made and do not get bent or ripped up with typical preschool play and use. They stood up well when he decided to take them out of the package to make a road and bridge for his cars.

The storage case is made of cardboard and sturdy enough for reuse and closes with a snap making it easy for preschoolers to open and close by themselves. The attached handle makes it portable and fun to carry around.

I highly recommend this product for preschoolers of all levels.
