Mermaid Lagoon Blend & Read Interactive Laminated CVC Word Blending Book

Mermaid Lagoon: Blend & Read🧜🏼‍♀️

Interactive Laminated CVC Word Blending Book with Sliding Mermaid (20 Beginning Reader Words)

Make early reading feel magical. 🫧✨

Mermaid Lagoon: Blend & Read is a hands-on, interactive phonics book designed to help children learn how to blend sounds into real words. Instead of worksheets or flashcards, your child gets to swim the mermaid across the lagoon to the shell while they sound out and read each CVC word.

This book focuses on the next step after letter sounds: CVC blending (consonant-vowel-consonant words) — the building blocks of early reading.

What’s Inside

This 8.5x11” laminated, durable book includes:

• 20 beginner-friendly CVC words for early readers
• Large, clear letter boxes for easy blending
• A built-in sliding mermaid tracker for interactive movement
• A sweet ocean theme that keeps kids engaged
• A vowel reference page (a, e, i, o, u) for extra support

Children practice by:

1. Saying each letter sound
2. Blending the sounds together
3. Reading the word — then “swimming” the mermaid to the shell

Movement helps children stay focused longer while reinforcing left-to-right tracking and building real reading confidence.
