Spike’s Sight Words: Cats & Dogs Board – Early Literacy Game

Engaging Early Literacy with Our Furry Friends

Learning should be a joy. The Spike’s Sight Words Cats and Dogs board introduces phonics through a theme kids already love. This animal-themed tool builds word recognition. We use familiar pets to bridge the gap between play and education. Whether your child is starting out or boosting confidence, this board offers a hands-on experience. Consequently, a simple sight words game feels like a reward.

⚠️ Important: How to Build Your “Spike Pack”

Please remember that this is an individual board. Therefore, you must purchase three individual boards to complete your ‘Spike Pack.’ If this is your first board, simply add it to your cart. Afterward, you can browse for the remaining pieces. Our unique system allows you to customise your pack. To reach your three-board goal, you can pair this with our Dinosaur board or our Farm yard Board. Additionally, this ensures a well-rounded vocabulary for your learner.

What you will get inside a COMPLETE pack:

• 3x Individual Spike’s Sight Words Board.

• Set of Word tokens (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced).

• Playing pieces and dice.

• Quick-Start Guide.

Please note: This product listing is for the Cats and Dogs board only. Ensure you select three boards to build your full set.

Tips for Playing

Start with the Beginner tokens to get the best results. Encourage your child to say each word aloud. Moreover, this multisensory approach is a proven method for success. As they gain confidence, you can swap in the harder tokens. Because our system is modular, it grows with your child. By the time you finish your Spike Pack, your learner will know over 150 words. This gives them a massive head start.

The Science of Spike

We believe children learn best when they are happy. For example, animal themes lower stress. This allows kids to absorb information quickly. This board targets words found in most children’s books. Thus, these skills translate directly to bedtime stories. We follow literacy goals supported by the National Literacy Trust.
