Reception Activities for Kids

Reception year is a huge milestone — children are learning to read, write and count for the first time. The best support you can give at home is activities that feel like play but build the skills they need in school.

Quacky & Rex Reception activities are designed for children aged 4–5 and cover the key areas of the Reception curriculum — phonics, early reading, number recognition, writing practice and creative play — all wrapped in the warmth of the Quacky & Rex world.
