This phonics writing desk is fantastic for helping young children to learn wholst having fun.

It has a set of capital letters with the lower case letters underneith, a screen to show you how to write a letter or word and a screen for you to write on which is very similar to a magnadoodle board.

There are lots of different settings on it.
