Great toy to grow with your child
Bought this when my daughter was 1 and bought another pack of lower case letters to reinforce both upper and lower cases. Used the letters on the fridge as phase one so she would learn letters, upper and lower, and sounds. The Word Whammer is excellent because it really does grow with your child - at 1 she was identifying letters, at 2 she was learning sounds and beginning to play games - at almost 3 she is learning to read basic words and hunt for letters and is experimenting with rhyming. We have gotten incredible mileage out of this toy and find it highly educational and useful for kitchen play while I'm cooking or cleaning. It is also very very durable. An excellent investment.

Word Whammer
All of my kids were excited about this new toy, but my 4-year-old can't get enough... I think it's perfect for the preschool- and kindergarten-aged child.

Some useful info about this product
Hi, I just received this item on amazon last week, just wanted to point out a few things:

1. You will notice in the product images are 2 products, the Word Whammer and the Word Builder, though this listing is for the Word Builder.
The Word Builder is the updated version of the Word Whammer.

However, when I recieved my order from Amazon they sent me the wrong product, they sent me the Word Whammer at first!
I called them and they graciously sent the Word Builder by 1 day mail, so be aware that this may happen.

2. Other then the airplane theme, someone pointed out to me that the Word Builder includes lowercase letters. I thought this meant that it has both upper and lowercase letters. It doesn't. It ONLY has lowercase letters.
I think the idea is that if you bought the Leapfrog Fridge Phonics Magnetic Alphabet set, meant for younger kids just learning letters, you would have the uppercase, then when your child is older, you get this one, the Word Builder which has the lowercase letters.
Since my child is 2 1/2 and I want the uppercase letters, I'm going to to buy this too, I guess... :(

Fyi, the Word Whammer had/has only uppercase like the LP fridge Alphabet Set.

The concept is great
I like this toy but the sound is tiny. Also, where to find the 325 words?
