Amazing app for kids

My kids love this app. I particularly love the game where they write the alphabet because it shows the correct way to do it and it makes it fun for them.

Amazing for kids

Such a high quality app with amazing games and educational content. It’s helped my daughter read, write, and learn digital painting. The books and games are so much fun. I love the penguin! You can customize him :)

Great for kids

Such a fun app for kids! My niece loves it! It feels educational without feeling like “learning,” which I think is such a win for parents. You can tell a lot of thought and love went into making it.

Fun for All

This app is very engaging for all ages. As a former teacher, I see students loving the activities in this app while still learning. I highly recommend the Penguin Academy to all parents and teachers of preschool and lower elementary school children.
