Educational Insights Set 1: Reading Readiness (Hot Dots Phonics Flash Cards)
Now there’s an exciting new sequential phonics program that combines the fun and excitement of Hot Dots flashing lights and fun sounds with a comprehensive readiness and phonics program. Each set of self-checking Hot Dots flash cards reinforces skills essential for reading success. After mastering the skills in the first three sets, children will be able to decode, or sound out, hundreds of 3- and 4-letter words. As they progress through the program, they acquire new decoding skills—so they’re reading in no time!
With the Hot Dots Power Pen™ (sold separately) in hand, phonics practice becomes an exciting game children can play on their own or with adult guidance. The Hot Dots pen gives immediate feedback for correct answer choices with flashing lights and one of seven positive sounds—or one of two gentle incorrect answer sounds for wrong choices. Each set includes 72 learning activities on 36 full-color double-sided cards. Packaged in sturdy plastic storage cases, these are the perfect send-home helpers for children needing extra practice. All cards can also be used without the Power Pen as traditional flash cards.
Grades K+ Ages 5+

Editorial Reviews
From the Manufacturer
The heart of the program is the Talking Hot Dots Pen, which provides fun feedback as it TALKS, makes fun SOUNDS, and even GLOWS. Press a correct answer, and hear words of encouragement, as the pen glows green. Select a wrong answer, and you might hear “Sorry, try again,†as the pen glows red. This is the kind of reinforcement children respond to with repeated play…and practice soon leads to mastery. Each 72-activity set comes in a sturdy plastic case and includes 36 colorful, double-sided cards. Perfect for home and school practice.
Customer Reviews
Great for beginning readers
My three year old son received these cards along with the Hot Dots Talking Pen from Santa Claus this year. Even though he also received some flashy electronic toys and play food, this was the first thing he played with when he finished opening his presents. He loves the sense of gratification he gets from getting the right answer and hearing the pen say, "Correct!" He is also learning to recognize more words thanks to these cards. He can select the word "purple" from the choices on the card because he knows it starts with "p." And how he is starting to go around spelling the different colors and numbers that are on these cards. Very educational, inexpensive, and great for beginning readers.
