How it works

Working with i-blocks is as easy as A, B, C. It is based on a set of interactive cubes with letters on all sides. A Biggle Station? and a Biggle Book? are all you need to make the most of these blocks. Just follow these five steps:

A Choose a Biggle Book and place it in the Biggle Station.
B The Biggle Station recognizes the book and the page it is opened at and reads the corresponding task to the child (e.g. 'spell NOSE').
C The child performs the action by placing the blocks in the Biggle Station so that they show the right letters on top in the correct order (the letters N, O, S and E).
D The Biggle Station recognizes whether the correct letter has been placed (the 'N') and gives direct feedback through sound (the letter 'N' is spoken) and light (blue = correct letter, green = correct word or red = incorrect letter). The child is given clues if the letter is incorrect.
E When the child has finished and removed the blocks, the Biggle Station will read the next task.

Various themes and levels of difficulty

The books that are being developed for i-blocks have different themes and levels of difficulty. You can therefore tailor the exercises to the child's learning requirements. It is this flexibility that also makes the i-blocks an excellent tool for special groups, such as children with learning difficulties or autistic children. And even adults learn a foreign language faster with the help of i-blocks.
