Learn ABC Letters with Captain Cat invites your preschool-aged children to join along on an enchanting voyage through the alphabet waters, to learn the names and shapes of the alphabet letters, practice letter recognition, and easily find letters in context of words and the alphabetical order. Each activity has a separate learning objective and a different game. The game teaches the alphabet to the children one set of letters at a time.
