25-Mar-2022: Three Strokes and a Bump Learning presents Those Are the Strokes, Folks!, the first educational alphabet learning toy with high-value, deep-play make-believe letter-building.

We all know that preschoolers learn best with make-believe play. But what we may not think about is that for young children make-believe play means high-value, deep-play make-believe like the make-believe they create, or the rich make-believe play using a much-loved character from, for example, a TV show or a Disney movie.

Rich, immersive make-believe play in which reality is suspended and a make-believe world and its characters take over, that’s the make-believe preschoolers use for learning.

Educational letter learning toys typically do not include make-believe. And they certainly do not include the high-value, deep-play make-believe that children crave and need for learning – until now. Those Are the Strokes, Folks! is the first and only alphabet letter learning toy with high-value, deep-play make-believe for more effective learning.

The four letter line characters, the Three Strokes and a Bump: Roddy, Roly, Slopey and Bump, bring high-value, deep-play make-believe to letter learning. Children join Roddy, Roly, Slopey and Bump on twenty-six interactive letter-building adventures for easy, fast, and best of all, fun letter learning.

Those Are the Strokes, Folks! includes a full-feature interactive video, a beautifully illustrated 38-page hardcover book, and a 22-piece magnetic sticker letter learning activity with 2 game boards.

“I DO IT!” was 3-year, 4-month old David’s remark after using Those Are the Strokes, Folks!.

At his preschool David had made it abundantly clear that he didn’t want anything to do with learning letters. Then, I gave him Those Are the Strokes, Folks!. Not waiting for me to finish reading to him, he raced through the pages of the book following Roddy, Roly, Slopey and Bump’s steps for letter-building. This one! This one!,” he shouted as he set about building a new chosen letter with the magnetic stickers. He would not stop! As he built one letter after another he learned to recognize and name them.

With letter-building (that children love), each letter comes to have experiential and visual meaning that makes them easy to recognize and name. That’s the learning power and the joy of Those Are the Strokes, Folks!.”
