Alphabet Letter Train

£38From 3 years

Twenty-six letter carriages that clip together to spell names, words and very long trains.

Free to reserve. Pay when you collect, and we hold it for 3 days.

Every letter sits on its own wheeled carriage, linked with strong magnets. Spelling a name becomes a game of finding the right carriages and hooking them up in order.

Children who are not yet reading still love it as a train: the letters simply become cargo, and letter shapes sink in along the way.

What it helps practise

  • Letter recognition
  • Early spelling
  • Sequencing
  • Pretend play
