At the core of every child’s reading journey is the need for engaging, effective learning tools—and that’s where Trugs comes in. Trugs (Teach Reading Using Games) harnesses the power of play to transform phonics learning for children of all ages, making the learning process both fun and impactful.
Phonics can be a challenge for many learners, but with Trugs, the challenge turns into an exciting game. By combining structured phonics practice with playful card games, Trugs allows children to improve their reading and spelling skills without realising they’re working. From “Get it” to “Match it” and “Take it,” the variety of games within each Trugs box ensures that learning is never monotonous. These games follow systematic synthetic phonics, a proven method for teaching reading, allowing children to progress steadily through different stages.
The real magic happens when children realise that learning can be enjoyable. By playing Trugs, they develop essential skills like phonemic awareness, blending, and segmenting, which are critical to reading success. This playful approach captures their enthusiasm, motivating them to return to the game again and again.
