Un believably good.

Can’t thank them enough to be able to have access to education from home. Thank you

Great

Amazing game, I learned to read just one month after I got it. Now I’m at 2000 golden eggs and reading 500 page books in 1 day

Sound cuts out

Sound starting cutting out a few months ago which makes it very hard to use. My 5 yr old loves it and would give it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the sound issue.

Hi, we are so sorry to hear you have been facing this issue within the program! The issue may be related to an auto muting which sometimes occurs when other apps seize control and mute the Reading Eggs app. There are a couple of easy solutions to this issue which vary depending on the model of your iPad, please send us an email to info@readingeggs.com and our customer support team can troubleshoot this with you so as to ensure the program is running as it should be. Sorry for the inconvenience. Kindest Regards, Reading Eggs Team

Good, but disappointed

Really Great program. kid like it. However it always lost sound. Quite disappointing as I have to always restart it, then the sound can just comeback for a little while. Hope IT staff can fix it. It almost happened half year.

Download this app!

As a mom of ten, I am surprised at how much I love this app. I have four kiddos currently using it, and it's been incredible to see what they are learning. Especially the ones who don't love to sit and do schoolwork. It's been amazing to watch them learn and retain new information. For one kiddo, he is actually asking to do his reading eggs every day and is excited to share his progress with his siblings and dad each evening. Watching how fast he progresses through the lessons and maps has been incredible, given his particular struggles with reading. Thank you, reading eggs, for giving this mom some hope that reading will become enjoyable for him!

Games, Rewards, and Learning - good option for screen time!

My son has enjoyed learning through this program. He looks forward to lessons and takes pride in his growth, especially when he achieves a certificate at the end of a quiz. The rewards program is great (children earn for their participating and then can purchase virtual items in the store). There’s lots of positive reinforcement throughout the program.

The lesson challenges appropriately grow and learning is done through games that are varied and fun. There are songs and very short videos, too, and so it addresses many types of learners. The lessons are short so they are achievable and easy to keep a child’s attention. The program has helped build my son’s confidence around reading and he can be very hard on himself but because the lessons are short and the challenges increase slowly, he has worked through these without too much frustration. Because he is in a dual language immersion program at school (90/10 Spanish English right now), this has been a good way to boost his English reading skills at home. I also appreciate this can take place of other screen time - he seems to enjoy it almost as watching a little show!

Issues with the sound

The sounds keeps cutting out making it impossible to complete some of the challenges. I am not able to see settings to make changes to the sound in app.

Hey there, thanks for reaching out to us and I'm sorry to hear you've been having this problem! We would love to investigate this, so if you haven't already done so please feel free to reach out to us at info@readingeggs.com to look into this :)

Great practice!

We have found reading eggs is great practice for our children! Some of the activities are difficult for young children because the ability to understand the directions is more difficult than the reading aspect. The Fast phonics section has better activities and is our favourite section of the program. I also wish there were fewer games. The lessons provide enough entertainment. The games and play area are unnecessary and often distracting (we are able to turn them off, but they don’t disappear, so the.my daughter is then asking me to turn them on).

The Games area can be disabled in your Family Dashboard by selecting the child's tab whose access you wish to change, then clicking/tapping on 'Edit Details' to the right of the Start button, then Program Access :)

my favorite learning

I use this as a foundation for homeschooling, printing out the homeschool program of work will make it tremendously easier! it even shows social studies/science subjects that you yourself can teach them outside of the program while staying all on track with math and reading on the program. Only thing I wish is that it would be verified for my mac book. I have it on here but it constantly crashes if I'm on reading for a bit then move to math, it'll stay on the loading screen forcing me to exit out. but works perfect when used on my iphone!
