We love this app

In just one week our child was improving in n reading. We enjoy the learning experience too. It’s been fun!

Maybe ok for neurotypical kids…

This is not the app for a kid with severe ADHD. The lessons were good, but the games being never ending is awful. We used it three times at less than 20 minutes per time before my daughter’s behavior afterwards was unbearable. The games are built to be addictive and it will have a negative effect on kids that already struggle with boundaries.
