Free alphabet file folder games. Letter identification and letter sound recognition is an important step on the path to reading. Take every opportunity you can to point out letters and practice their sounds with children, not just in the classroom but at home and on the road as well. Children will soon be able to pick out letters from a sign, and identify beginning sounds with ease. File folder games are another great way to practice and reinforce early reading skills. Our games are designed to make it easy for children to play alone or alongside a parent or teacher. Assembly for most of the games is self-explanatory, however, we’ve included short instructions and photo examples when necessary.
