Shalvit Kids TV Magazine — Issue 25: Phonics Power
PHONICS POWER — the reading-mastery issue of Shalvit Kids TV Magazine! 135 full-colour pages (1920×1280) of stories, songs and sound-building fun for ages 2–6, from the makers of the Shalvit Kids TV storybooks and songs.
The word workshop is OPEN! Letter blocks snap together into words — and every built word becomes a picture. Your child will blend sounds, meet blends and digraphs the right way, build word families, and finish the issue reading — one sound at a time.
What's inside:
Hero Story — The Word Builders (26 pages): Kiki, Bibo, Lulu and Pip open a word workshop where c-a-t… CAT! Every CVC word they build pops into its picture.
Story Two — Lulu Reads the Market Signs (18 pages): Lulu sounds out the whole world — BUS STOP, SHOP, FISH, HATS — expanding Books 82 (Lulu Loves Rhymes) and 83 (Bibo's Sound Hunt), with the beloved "banana does NOT rhyme with cat" beat.
Bible Story Time — The Ten Good Rules (Exodus 20): God's ten rules for loving God and loving people, told in toddler-true short lines, one rule per page. God shown only as golden light; the cast appear only as presenters.
Feelings Corner — Feeling Brave to Try Reading: the Brave Reader Plan — one sound at a time, mistakes are steps, friends cheer every try.
Sing With Us: "Put the Sounds Together!" and "Two Letters, One Sound" — full lyrics from Album 26 (Phonics Vol. 2), with actions.
Learning Lab — the phonics spine in its locked order: CVC blending → L-blends → R/S-blends → sh/ch → th/ng/ck → word families (Book 82's -at, -un, -op, -an) → vowel teams ee/ai/ay. Blends and digraphs are never blurred: blends keep BOTH sounds; digraphs make ONE new sound. Ends with Kiki Asks Why? — "Why do some letters team up?"
Count & Find: find 6 picture-words starting with B and 5 ending in -at — every count drawn, numbered and code-verified.
Puzzle Pages: 2 solver-verified mazes, spot-the-difference, word patterns, shadows, dot-to-dot, a sound hunt and the Big Quiz — full answer key at the back.
Jokes & Giggles, Colour & Create (including colour-by-number and a My First Reading Certificate), Make It (a blend wheel — grown-ups cut and pin, children spin and read), Yummy Corner (a letter-sound snack sort under the full kitchen-safety lock), Our Nigeria (Stories Before Books — how Nigerian stories travelled mouth to ear for hundreds of years), a "Sounds I Can Read" progress chart, and full Parent Pages with teaching notes and answers.
Skills learned: blending and segmenting, initial blends, digraphs sh/ch/th/ng/ck, word families and rhyming, vowel teams, print awareness, counting, persistence and reading confidence.
Print it, read it aloud together, and build words all month — over 120 pages of screen-free reading fun in one issue!
