Make learning the letter sound N an exciting adventure with this hands-on I Spy board game.

Instead of drilling flashcards or sitting through worksheets, kids get to move, search, and play while practicing beginning N, middle sound N, and ending sound N in words.

The colorful game boards and playful images keep children engaged, while the interactive format helps them focus on the /n/ sound in a way that feels like a game, not a lesson.

This letter sound N I Spy game is perfect for preschool and kindergarten classrooms, small group phonics instruction, and at-home practice for homeschool families.

It’s also a fantastic tool for speech therapy and occupational therapy sessions, giving students the chance to strengthen articulation goals, fine motor skills, and vocabulary at the same time. ELL students benefit from the strong visual cues and repeated word practice, which make new vocabulary more accessible and memorable.

Because the setup is quick and simple, this I Spy game is also a lifesaver for busy teachers who need meaningful sub plans, engaging activities for early finishers, or a go-to literacy center that can be used all year long.

With multiple play options, it adapts easily to every learning environment while keeping students motivated to spot, match, and say words with the letter sound N.

What’s Included in the Letter Sound N I Spy Game

10 colorful I Spy boards packed with pictures containing the letter sound N
40 image cards with printed words and illustrations such as nest, necklace, nurse, nine, noodles, north, noon, and more
12 token cards for keeping score and encouraging competitive or cooperative play
Step-by-step instructions for using the I Spy “Flip” gameplay

Just what I needed!

I love the "Flip" activities. They're always colorful and engaging. These activities reinforce childrens use of language, labeling, identifying of vocabulary associated with specific themes. My students in the past have loved the Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall flip, so when I wanted to update my beginning of the school year activities I happened to find the September themed one and knew I had to purchase it. I laminate my mats and have the kids cover the images with colored small or large game chips, vase jewels or playdough. If the images on the mats are too busyi make sure to uave extra copies for the kids to engage in matching the images. The kids love it!

We LOVE it

Great game. My students love it and my kids at home. Lots of fun times playing this game. I love the variety in boards. My suggestion for customers is to print it on cardstock so you can't see through the cards.
