The collection
Every pack in the reading journey
Nineteen carefully sequenced packs, each following the same clean, professional design — letters and sounds through to grammar and punctuation.
Every pack belongs to a colour-coded set — the flower on each card is coloured to its set, so a stray card always finds its way home.

Our approach
The little dots do a big job
Every sound card carries a small cluster of dots in the corner. They’re not decoration — each dot stands for one sound that letter or digraph can make. One dot for sh, two for th, three for ch.
It’s a simple visual cue drawn straight from structured literacy: at a glance a child knows whether a grapheme makes a single sound or several, then turns the card over to meet each one with example words.

Our story
Made at the kitchen table
Bloom Literacy Co. began with our own children and a simple wish: phonics resources that were as lovely to look at as they were effective to teach. Every pack is designed by hand in Australia, tested at home, and refined until each card earns its place. We think learning to read should feel like tending something that grows.
Shipping & care
Everything arrives ready to love
We print, hand-pack and post every order from Australia — and each pack comes in a clear PVC case that keeps the cards safe and waterproof.
Hand-packed and sent with care.
What does my order come in?
Every pack is packed by hand into a clear PVC case that keeps the cards safe and waterproof — so a spilt drink or a busy classroom won’t ruin them, and they stay tidy between lessons.
How are the cards made?
Each card is professionally printed on thick, durable cardstock and finished double-sided, so it stands up to real classrooms and busy kitchen tables.
How much is shipping, and how long does it take?
Shipping is a flat $9.95 anywhere in Australia — and it’s free on orders over $75. Orders are dispatched within 1–2 business days and usually arrive in 3–7 business days with tracking. (Adjust these times in your store settings.)
Do you ship internationally?
For now we post within Australia. International shipping is on its way — email us if you’d like it sooner rather than later, it helps us know where to start.
I’ve lost a card. Can I get it back?
Yes — that’s the Replant Promise. Next time you order any pack, tell us which cards have gone missing and we’ll print them and pop them in the box. Free, up to five cards an order. Every card is numbered on the back (like 12/46), so all we need is the pack name and the number.
What if something isn’t right?
If anything arrives damaged, we’ll replace it straight away — no fuss. Unopened packs can be returned within 30 days for a refund.
The Replant Promise
Lost a card? We’ll replace it.
Cards go missing. They slip under car seats, get left on classroom floors, and disappear into couches. One lost card shouldn’t spoil a pack of forty-six.
So next time you order any pack, just tell us which cards have wandered off — and we’ll print them and pop them in the box with your order.
- Free, with any pack you order
- Up to five cards per order
- Any pack you own, not just the one you’re buying
- No forms, no proof — just tell us
Every card is numbered on the back — like 12/46. Tell us the pack and the numbers, and that’s all we need.
Colour coded
Every card knows where it lives.
Cards go missing. That’s not a risk, it’s a certainty — under desks, into tubs, home in a school bag. So the flower on every card is coloured to its set. Find a stray card on the floor, and the colour tells you which set it belongs to.

For schools & clinics
Built for the way you’re now required to teach.
Since 2025, every Victorian government school has taught systematic synthetic phonics — a minimum of 25 minutes, every day, Prep to Grade 2. From 2026 the Year 1 Phonics Check is mandatory. NSW has screened every Year 1 student since 2021.
These cards were made for that. Not adapted for it.
347
The whole scope and sequence
Seven sets, from the alphabet through digraphs, vowel teams and advanced code to grammar and punctuation. Not a sample — the whole scope, in teaching order.
Sound-dots on every card
How many different sounds that grapheme makes, marked on the front. ea gets three — eat, head, steak. The ambiguity is on the card, before a child meets it in a book.
♥
Heart words done properly
The irregular part marked in red, so children learn the tricky bit by heart and decode the rest — instead of memorising whole words on sight.
DLI
A glossary for the staff room
Forty-six cards of structured-literacy terminology — phoneme, grapheme, schwa, syllable types. For the teacher new to explicit instruction, or the CRT covering Year 1.
Why this matters in a classroom
Lost cards are free. Forever.
Cards go missing in classrooms. That is not a risk, it is a certainty — under desks, into tubs, home in a school bag and never seen again. With most resources that slowly turns a complete set into an unusable one.
Not here. Every card is numbered on the back. Tell us the pack and the number and we’ll print replacements and post them with your next order. Free, up to five cards an order, for as long as you’re a customer.
