Our two sons have severe dyslexia and so we have had to learn how to help them achieve their full potential. We have selected toys that are FUN. While the children are playing they can be practising and developing particular skills that will help them. You will find these toys in other areas of our webshop as they are great fun for all the family to play. We would advise you to present the product as a fun game or puzzles, and not as ‘something to help you with dyslexia’.
