Lite Brite
This is my 4 year old daughter’s favorite toy. I was so excited when I came across
this toy because as a child I remember sitting on the floor in my living room
playing with hours on end. My daughter loved creating designs with the pegs and
seeing them “lite up” as she pressed the button. As a mom, I love toys that teach
without them even realizing their learning. This toy is a great tool for my daughter
who is in Pre-K learning her alphabet and letter sounds. Each picture has a design
using capital letters for each color (R=red, B=blue, G=green, P=pink, V=violet,
W=white, Y=yellow, O=orange). My daughter sounds out each color, decides
what letter it begins with and then plugs in the corresponding pegs. She even
learned a new color with this game, violet.
Cons
- The pieces are very small so keep out of reach of young children.
- Once the design is created and pegs are removed, you no longer have the capital letters showing you what colors go where, just holes. It makes it difficult for my daughter to recreate the image, so were constantly buying refill packs.
