How this product aligns with the EYLF

Supporting play-based learning and inquiry
The Moveable Alphabet encourages children to engage in play-based learning by allowing them to explore letter recognition and word formation through hands-on interaction. As children manipulate the letters, they can experiment with sounds and words, fostering a natural curiosity about language and literacy.

Building language, imagination, and social skills
This resource supports the development of language skills as children use the letters to create words and sentences. Through collaborative play, children can share ideas and stories, enhancing their communication skills and imaginative play, which are essential components of early literacy development.

Relevant EYLF Outcomes
