Having Issues

Magic reading apps has been a wonderful resource and teaching my preschool to read. The magic spelling apps are having a new issue, after completing the first word, on the subsequent word, letters will not move to be dragged into place. So basically, these apps are useless now. Would greatly appreciate the issue being fixed.

Good Education for my children

I like it because your children get to learn more and that’s why I have given it a 5 out of 5

Decent app

I like the app, it is a good way for kids to learn the basic “cvc” of words. I think what would make it even better though, is if there was the ability to hear the full word, slowly articulated (S-u-n), instead of just the isolated sounds of the letters.This way they would learn to hear the proper sequence of the letter sounds within the word, and it would be easier for them to transfer the skill to their writing.
Thanks for the app.

Great for helping children build and spell words

This is a great introduction for building and spelling short vowel 3-letter words. There are 2 types of games and a category for each vowel. Great for helping children with beginning phonics.
