I was delighted to meet Zoe and hear about the research and care that went into the development of the phonic tiles and the story cards that I bought.
I was impressed with both the concept and the presentation. I am sure that my grandchildren will enjoy using these attractive yet educational gifts.
It was really nice to meet you too and I'm so thrilled you're happy with your purchases. I hope your grandchildren love them too!
