The letters are coloured and in large print. The cards are double sided, so they take up less space. They also have a chart that shows the possible combinations of the suku kata cards that form meaningful BM words, along with matching pictures to guide the kids.
The vowels are on separate cards and have illustrations on the respective cards to indicate the sound (e.g. card for vowel "a" has api, ayam pictures). That's useful cos I think he's getting the English and BM vowel sounds mixed up. Yesterday I tested him on spelling the word "gun" which is what the teacher taught in school. He spelt it as g-a-n because in BM, the vowel "a" has a similar sound as the short vowel "u" in English.
I've used the cards a few times and he is able to read through them quite fast (fast for him, but probably slow compared to normal kids).
It can be bought online at the following link at RM33.80 for a set of 2 boxes (series 1 and 2):
