How are phonics songs different from ABC songs?
ABC songs teach the names of the letters in order. Phonics songs teach the sound each letter makes, like /m/ in mop, then show how sounds blend into words such as c-a-t. Our ABC songs playlist covers letter names; this one is the next step.
How can RepeatWatch help a child practice letter sounds?
Drag A and B around one sound or one blended word and it repeats until you change it. Set the speed to 0.75× so each sound is clearer for a new reader, and save up to nine sections on keys 1–9 to jump between the sounds you are practicing.
Frequently asked questions
What age are these phonics videos for?
Most suit preschool and kindergarten (ages 3–6). The Alphablocks episodes, digraph songs and vowel lessons also help children in first grade (ages 6–7) who are still blending short words.
Can I limit how long the phonics videos play?
Yes. Set Stop after to end a video after a set number of loops, or use the sleep timer to stop playback after a chosen number of minutes. Short sessions with a grown-up nearby usually work best.
