Alphablocks is a British 3D CGI-animated children’s educational television programme that is designed to teach children how to spell with the use of animated blocks representing each letter. Once the Alphablocks discover that whenever they make a word it comes to life, many new adventures in Alphaland can be created. This is meant to help preschool children with learning the alphabet, spelling, reading and writing. Follow Alphablocks and watch episodes on their YouTube Channel.
