Vibrantly rainbow coloured alphabet boats with capital letters on one side, the corresponding lower case on the other side and vowels in clear. Ideal for learning letters and sounds, the order of the alphabet, the difference between consonants and vowels, for colour recognition and for sensory play.

The tactile squashy boats contain gel-like beads in 7 bright rainbow colours for the consonants and crystal clear for the vowels. There is a loop at the top of each boat for hanging on a string or with pegs, and the translucent colours will colour mix when held against a window or light panel, e.g. blue and yellow held together will produce green.

The boats have a compelling texture that invites sensory exploration and can have a calming effect when the beads are moved around, they can also be frozen to add another level of sensory discovery.
