TechSafe vs Phonemes by Gwimpy

TechSafe - Sexting is one of a series of beautifully illustrated internet safety information apps by kids and teens. ‘Sexting’ is when a person shares naked, semi-naked, sexual images or videos of themselves or others. It’s also when people send sexually explicit texts or messages. Children as young as 6 are Sexting and the most common age to send and receive Nude photos is 14. During the 2020 lockdown period sexts written by children in the UK rose by 183% Funded by the Police and Crime Commissioners Action Fund and Herts Community Fund in the UK, this app is packed with advice and resources to help kids, teens and adults prevent or deal with Sexting.

Have you ever had a surge of anxiety about your child facing the paraphernalia of phonics? Relax; you do not need a linguistics degree to reach the first stage. In fact, with a brief introduction of the basics, your child will soon be having creative fun with words, as any child should. A phoneme is the smallest sound unit; your child will be taught about these as part of their phonics learning. There are forty-five phonemes! Yes, a few more than twenty-six letters of the alphabet. Phonemes by Gwimpy will introduce your child to these sounds with the assistance of a little helper who is also grappling to master them. The phoneme is pressed on the menu, and the sound is reproduced with this sound being included in a word which is then reinforced by a short morphing of the phoneme into an object representing the word. That is it!
