Toys and Games Reviews of First Words Magnetic Poetry Kit
Customer Review: Great Fun for Early Readers
Summary: 5 Stars
This Magnetic Poetry Set made a fine stocking stuffer for my soon-to-be five year old daughter.
She has just started reading on her own, and has developed an interest in spelling. These words give her great exposure to both. They are all quite simple, and almost below her reading level. However, this works out well as she doesn't have to concentrate too hard on any one word. Instead, she can go up to the refrigerator and make up all manner of silly sentences and sentence fragments and giggle maniacally with her two year old sister, who can't read, but loves having big sis read to her. We've also practiced searching for words to describe various stretches of our Frigits marble run, (fast, slow, green, and for the final marble capture, the phrase 'going home' etc.) which is kind of a cool dual use for these.
As a young adult, I always had the adult variation of Magnetic Poetry on the fridge, and it's a thrill to pass the fun on to my kids. Parents who are familiar with the adult version, will be thankful that the words were chosen wisely for this introductory set. And so it appears, thus far, to be virtually impossible to make near-offensive or vulgar sentiments (the only noun that's gotten a lot of play that way is 'nose' because you can make all kids of booger-related references by using the word nose, which is just kid-level silliness).
All-around, I'm totally pleased with this one, and would highly recommend as an extra tool to make reading more fun for kids. I think it's definitely had that effect for my daughter.
Country of origin = China.
