Title: Great toy - Great teaching tool!
Review: My nephew was given this mat for his birthday and have given me rave reviews each time I see him, as have his parents. He was a struggling reader in first grade, and reluctant because of his difficulties. He has proudly shown me his ability to make words using this toy, and regularly experiments by making new words, adding to his vocabularly as he is ready to do so. His mother reports that he also uses it to study his weekly spelling tests.The mat pronounces words that are spelled into the mat using the tiles. It is remarkably accurate in its pronounciation, with a very pleasant voice.This toy won the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Toy Award, from what I've read and also holds my humble endorsement.
