Lightning Fox: Kids English

Listen, say it back, then try it together at home. Start with short English phrases for everyday moments. Lightning Fox puts listening and speaking first. Pictures and short conversations give children a familiar context for practice. Parents can learn the phrases too and use them together at mealtimes, playtime and tidy-up time. Interface and explanations are available in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese. There is no English interface or English explanation; English-only devices default to Simplified Chinese. 24 lessons and 101 everyday conversations of 2–4 lines each: from mealtimes, brushing teeth and getting dressed to class, making friends, the park and birthday parties. The same phrases come back in different situations, giving children repeated opportunities to hear and practise them. Learn from everyday life Asking for things, saying no, asking for help, bath time, tidying toys, agreeing on a game with a friend… Each page is one familiar scene: one picture and one short conversation. More than following instructions Talk with family, teachers and friends: ask, choose, say how you feel, and say "No, thank you." Every character's lines can be practised, so children learn things they can really say. English on the front, help on the back The front of each page has only English, a picture and audio, so children guess the meaning from sound and image first. If they're stuck, a tap flips the page to show what each line means, new words and a short note. Explanations and the app interface are in Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese; there is no English explanation. Listen first, then say it • Listen: scenes play one after another with word-by-word highlighting and Lock Screen controls, handy on the go or at bedtime • Repeat: hear the model line, then it's your turn, and play back your own voice straight away After speaking, children can see which words were recognised and try unrecognised words again. This feedback comes from speech recognition; it does not assess pronunciation accuracy. Start by having a go out loud. A lesson counts as learned once every scene has been repeated. A little every day: collect stars, flip cards Finish a scene, earn a star. Save up stars to flip cards and collect 42 animal, dinosaur and fantasy creature friends. Stars are capped each day, so there's no need to binge. Who it's for For children beginning English and adults who want to practise with them. Start together, then decide whether independent use suits the child’s reading skills and familiarity with the app. For iPhone and iPad Lessons and audio are built in, so looking and listening work without an internet connection. The first time your child repeats a line, the system may need to download speech-recognition data. The first 3 lessons are free.
