The award-winning Bailey`s Book House now features two new activities! Bailey and his friends encourage young children to build important literacy skills while developing a love for reading. In seven activities, kids explore the sounds and meanings of letters, words, sentences, rhymes and stories. No reading skills are required: all directions and written words are spoken.

MASTER SIMPLE PREPOSITIONS Where`s Edmo? It`s up to you! Direct the action and send Edmo & Houdini over, under, in, out, off and on the doghouse.

LEARN THREE-LETTER CARNIVAL Sound out words at the Three-Letter Carnival! Group animals and objects by names that rhyme, or group them by names that begin with the same letter.

LEARN THE ALPHABET Learn your ABCs with the animated, talking Letter Machine. At the touch of a letter, dinosaurs dance and rhinos rollerskate!

MAKE YOUR OWN RHYMES Rub a dub dub, three kids in a shrub? Mother Goose rhymes take a new twist when you become a poet in Read-A-Rhyme.

EXPLORE SELF-EXPRESSION Make a card for any occasion with Kid Cards. You can decorate and print your own colorful creations.
