You need mini cups. Ours had lids which allowed them to be stacked too.

Plus you’ll need circle stickers to write the letters you need. Think wheel of fortune, lots of vowels, r, s, t, l, n, d, etc. You can always add more as you need.

Note: I made all the vowels yellow and the consonants blue.

We spelled several ways. The first was she put the words in order like you’d spell them.

Spelling games

To mix it up we also spelled words in a tower from top to bottom.

Both ways were LOTS of fun and made her excited to practice her spelling words.
