How can I teach my child to read and enjoy the time together?

trugs is a system based on a synthetic phonics structure to allow anyone, who can themselves read, to help a child/student to progress their level of reading.

The trugs card games are deliberately designed with children and students in mind – in other words there is no mention of phonics, or letter clusters in the actual card games. The supportive literature gives all the details necessary, keeping the card games as an enjoyable way to practise the phonics being taught.

The card games are fun and competitive, with lots of laughter, they hardly notice the reading element – that’s why trugs works and that’s why children want to come back for more.

Every time they are playing they are decoding words in order to win. The stages are carefully graded to ensure easy progress and success.
