I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the Phonics Activity Book for Ages 4-5 (Reception)

Give your Reception child the phonics foundation they need with the Phonics Activity Book for Ages 4-5 (Reception) from CGP. Designed for four- and five-year-olds just starting their reading journey, this workbook builds the early decoding and sound-recognition skills that underpin confident reading and spelling throughout primary school.

Inside, you'll find colourful, engaging exercises that introduce letter sounds, blending, and simple word-building in short, manageable steps. Each page uses clear illustrations and friendly prompts to keep your child focused and motivated, whether they're circling pictures, matching sounds, or colouring in answers. The activities are carefully sequenced to match the phonics progression taught in Reception classrooms across England, so homework and independent practice reinforce what's being learned at school.

Sample phonics activity page showing letter sound identification exercises
Bright, child-friendly exercises help Reception pupils recognise and practise individual letter sounds and word matching.

Regular practice with this book means your child will grow more confident sounding out new words, recognising common phonemes, and tackling simple sentences independently. You'll notice them reading signs, labels, and early readers with less hesitation, and their spelling attempts will become more accurate as they internalise the sound-letter links. Because the book is structured around the English National Curriculum for Reception, you can be sure every activity is relevant, age-appropriate, and aligned with teacher expectations.

Phonics practice page featuring letter sounds x, y, z and zz with illustrated examples
Clear instruction pages introduce tricky sounds step-by-step, with visual prompts and varied question styles to build fluency.

This workbook is ideal for parents who want a trusted, straightforward resource to support their Reception child's phonics development at home. Each session takes just a few minutes, making it easy to fit into busy family routines, and the friendly format keeps young learners engaged without overwhelming them. It's a practical, proven way to give your child the reading confidence they need from the very start.

  • Covers essential phonics skills for Reception (ages 4–5), including letter sounds, blending, and early word recognition
  • Colourful, age-appropriate activities with clear instructions and illustrations to keep young learners motivated
  • Aligned with the English National Curriculum to support classroom learning and build confident early readers
  • Short, focused exercises perfect for quick daily practice at home
  • Published by CGP, a trusted name in UK educational workbooks
