Good way to practice reading

There are 4 levels with words. The words are getting harder by each level. You are shown 3 pictures and 1 word. The word corresponds to one of the pictures. You (your child...) should try to read the word and select the right picture. You can't guess as an incorrect selection results in a new word and new pictures. Great way to practice reading for beginners.

An okay app

This app is easy to use and includes several languages. A word is shown to a child and the child must click on the correct pictures. However, if the child chooses the wrong picture, there is not an error correction. So I am not sure how the app is teaching a child to learn to read because it does not teach the child the words. I would recommend this app for children who already know how to read, but not for children just learning to read.

Word Matching

I felt this app was ok. It was very easy to understand how to use. I had to turn off the music because it got annoying. I agree with the person who says it needs more if it is going to be a paid app. It is good for practicing matching known words to pictures. I don't really feel that teaches someone how to read.

Fun to learn new languages too

The app is easy to learn and fun to use. I liked that you could also learn many other languages by switching the flags on the home screen. Tapping the fruit to "eat" it was a fun reward! Needs more levels.

Decent

For a priced app I would look for something more. There's not much to it. Three cards are presented, a kid's voice says the word on top, the user chooses which card matches the word. That's it.
