Help dyslexic children practice word sounds and learn reading skills.
To become a good reader, a child needs to break down words into sounds, which helps them develop strong reading and writing skills.
This fun ‘clapping syllables’ game on the card below can help a dyslexic child to practise word sounds.

Learn word sounds improve reading
Get advice from the Dyslexic Mum about to make practising word sounds into a fun game:
“A member of the local Brownies group, we used to play the childhood game. ‘I went to the shop and bought…..’ You may have memories of playing this game. It is a simple game of remembering a shopping list of items.
I have turned this simple game into an activity. To make practising breaking words down into syllables, more fun for dyslexic children”.
Watch the clickable ‘Clapping Syllables Game’ video below, where the Dyslexic Mum demonstrates how to play.
Learn how playing the “Clapping Syllables” game can help a dyslexic child:
- Clapping – Clapping helps sound out syllables in words. This method supports multi-sensory learning. Dyslexic kids learn best when they use their whole bodies. Moving, dancing, and singing help them remember word sounds.
- Family Fun – Involving the whole family in the “Clapping Syllables” game makes learning fun. The child won’t even realise they are practising word sounds. Choose a relaxed time, like after dinner or on a Sunday afternoon.
- Play Again – You can use this card many times. Check the ‘Syllables’ words list on the card below for more words to practise.
The “Mooki Cards offer many more fun educational games, like the “Rule of 10” card. These are great for helping dyslexic children learn new spellings.
