I'm Learning

Read full description

First words with real photos, real sounds and native speaker voices, in 8 languages. Seven games, now with Writing: trace letters, numbers and words on handwriting lines. No ads and no tracking. Works offline. The animals and letter and number tracing are free. Tap the dog and your child hears "dog", then a real bark. That is how a toddler or preschooler learns eighty first words: animals, vehicles, musical instruments, things around the house and nature. Every word has real photos and is spoken by a native speaker. SEVEN GAMES • Explore: tap a photo, hear the word and its sound. • Listening: what do you hear? Pick the right photo. • Reading: which word goes with the photo? • Spelling: build the word, or fill in the missing letter. • Memory: match pairs of photos, words or sounds. • Drawing: coloring pages, stickers, shape tracing and scratch cards. • Writing: new, see below. NEW: WRITING Your child traces capital and lowercase letters, then numbers, whole words and the missing letter, on real handwriting lines like at school. Numbered start points, arrows on the stroke and a moving dot show how each letter is formed. After tracing, the voice says the letter's name. GROW UP BILINGUAL The app's language and the language your child learns are set separately. Keep the menus in English and let your child learn Spanish, French or Dutch words. Or the other way round. Choose from English, Spanish, French, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese and Japanese. SOMETHING NEW EVERY SEASON A few weeks a year the app adds a category of 16 words with its own photos, voices, coloring pages and a Foxy in seasonal clothes: fall, Christmas, winter, Easter and summer. Right now it is fall: mushroom, hedgehog, acorn, pumpkin and more. FOR PARENTS • No ads, no tracking, no third party analytics. • Purchases and links out of the app sit behind a parental gate. • Screen time timer and a child lock. • Progress: see which words your child knows. • Works without internet. • Made for toddlers and preschoolers, about 2 to 6 years old. FREE AND FULL VERSION The animals, and letter and number tracing, are free, with every game. The other categories and the seasons are part of the full version, which you unlock in the app. You see the options and prices in the app, behind the parental gate. Questions or ideas?
