### 4/5 — Nice phones app for kids to learn new vocabulary !

*2020-08-06, version 1.6.7*

Was looking for an app to get my students to practise phonic sounds! This one did the job with the fun guessing sound memory games ! Loved the fact that you can choose between different accents (American, British or Australian) and you can also choose for the letters (Capital, Small, both). Give it a try !

This is a very good app for helping young children learn their sounds and words. Nice graphics and sounds too.

### 5/5 — Very cute

*2020-07-03*

Adorable. The child I babysit for loved it (he is 8!) It reminds me of Memory Cards from childhood. They have a virtual sticker board which I thought was kinda cool. The only thing is that the sound didn’t work for me?? Otherwise very cute. I recommend.

### 4/5 — Cobro correcto

*2019-05-22, version 1.6.6*

En mi anterior reseña, pensaba que el cobro había sido incorrecto. El problema es q Apple realizó el cobro de esta app junto con otra q había comprado hacía días, justo los 10€ q pensaba q me habían cobrado demás. 
Todo solucionado. 
He comprado esta app para complementarla con la de Jolly Phonics. 
A mis alumnos de Infantil les gusta bastante.
