This animated phonics song helps children learn the sound of the digraph PH and the digraph GH in English. A digraph is a combination of two letters representing one sound. Colorful characters teach kids two words at a time with the PH sound or the GH sound. Kids will love singing along and watching the action after each group of two words. As they do, they’ll practice making the PH digraph sound and the GH digraph sound. Developed with speech therapists to form sounds correctly. Extra practice reading words with the letter combination PH is inserted between the PH song and the GH song.
