"I am a Special Education Resource teacher who works with children in grades K-5. Two years ago I found the Crazy Shorts, Crazy Longs, and Crazy Mores card games in a catalogue. I LOVE the games! One of my Fifth grade boys has struggled with Reading ever since he began school. After a few months of playing the games a few times a week, his reading drastically improved. When I talked with him about it, he said, “Ms. Wheeler, it’s those crazy games. I have learned more about reading from those card games than anything else.”         ​

"I have been using these cards forever! Kids enjoy the game and don't even realize they're getting phonics learning to stick.”         ​

"I learned about your cards years ago at an International Dyslexia Conference...I loan out materials to my students to use for additional practice during the week, so they get used a lot, and are a favorite of my students!  You know…….any chance to beat the teacher is fun :-)"

"We are working on a study at a University here in North Carolina, and Crazy Longs are just the only game out there that we have found that works to help children learn their long vowels."

"My students love these games!  They are an excellent resource for building decoding skills and fluency.  The best part is the students don’t realize how many words they are reading!" 😊

"Thank you for your amazing games and activities! My students are engaged with the activities, and decoding practice doesn't feel like "work" to them. Between your materials and everything from Marnie at Reading Simplified, I know my kids have everything that they need for reading!"

"Crazy Cards has helped so much with my planning and lessons! I find they are ideal and most fun for the kids when used as a review. Once students are able to sound out words with that pattern, we play! This helps with word fluency and recognizing spelling patterns. I love that there are so many ways to use the cards and my students have enjoyed inventing rules as well. Thanks so much! "
