- 1-4 players
- Quick setup time, 5-45 min games
- Over 4 ways to play. All games can be adapted to meet players where they're at
- Sound Slam includes 69 beautifully hand drawn playing cards. Each card purposefully includes no letters so as not to distract players from practicing the critical skill of phonological awareness (ability to recognise words are made up of sounds).

- Design One: The Big Six (Konza, 2014) of reading are all connected and all important. A preachy tea towel telling anyone who will listen what it takes to make a reader.
- Design Two: A jumbled alphabet because gosh their singing is cute but it doesn’t mean they know letter names. Point some out while you butter their toast!
- Design Three: Consider this tea towel your permission to use the big words. A broad vocabulary is a one way ticket to becoming a reading champion!
Thick, 100% cotton all-rounders. Come at me mess!
