Dyxlexia and children?

Question

What sort of toys would be good for dyslexic children? i heard of bingo? how about a rubiks cube?

Answer 1

Not word games as one person has suggested.  These will only highlight the difficulty the child has.  Imagine someone giving you a game which you had no chance of ever winning.  

My own son is dyslexic and enjoys playing many games  both board and card games but he has never come to enjoy any word game.  Even to this day where he is in his 20's and after getting an A level in English.  

Buy toys which are fun first.

Answer 2

I read some information about how working  with them on balance can be very helpful.

Answer 3

word cards trhat yo put together to make sentences-also in puzzle form
