Review: Would love to try more Hot Dots sets — this one exceeded expectations! - This Hot Dots Phonics set is a game-changer! My preschooler is absolutely hooked — she thinks it’s a game, but I know she’s learning essential phonics skills. The talking pen gives instant feedback, which makes her want to keep going. The cards are sturdy and colorful, perfect for little hands. We’ve used it for 3 weeks now and I’ve already noticed improvement in her letter recognition and sound blending.
