My First Hindi

Read full description

My First Hindi turns learning the Hindi alphabet into playtime. Designed for children aged 4–10, it teaches Devanagari the way kids actually learn — by touching, hearing, and building, not by memorizing worksheets. THREE PLAYFUL LEVELS वर्णमाला — Hindi Alphabet The complete varnamala: 13 swar and 36 vyanjan on one colorful board. Tap any letter to hear it pronounced clearly and slowly. Open a letter to explore real words that use it — every word hand-picked, illustrated, and voiced, with the letter highlighted as it is spoken. स्वर और मात्रा — Swar & Matra The heart of reading Hindi: how vowel signs attach to consonants. Children see the matra waiting in a dotted slot, tap a consonant, and watch it fly in to form a real syllable — then hear the syllable, the letter, and the whole word, each part lighting up as it is spoken. Completed words rise onto a shelf so kids can see everything they built. शब्द अभ्यास — Word Practice Drag-and-drop word puzzles. See a picture, hear the word, and build it letter by letter into matra-aware slots. Every letter speaks when it lands. "मेरा शब्द" reads back exactly what your child assembled — even silly non-words — so experimenting is always rewarded. Gentle hints, encouraging feedback, progress dots, and stars keep motivation high. Easy and hard modes grow with your child. MADE FOR CHILDREN • Huge touch targets and simple, back-only navigation • No reading required to play — everything is learnable by touch and sound • Gentle, encouraging feedback — never harsh, never discouraging • Reduced-motion support and color-independent cues MADE FOR PARENTS • 100% offline — learn anywhere, no Wi-Fi needed • No ads, no in-app purchases, no accounts, no tracking • Bilingual interface: Hindi first, with English captions everywhere • Clear, slow, child-friendly pronunciation for all 49 letters, 190+ words, and syllables WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN • Recognize all 49 letters of the Hindi varnamala • Connect letters to sounds and real words • Understand how matras transform consonants into syllables • Build and read their first Hindi words • Develop reading readiness through play My First Hindi is the first step on a longer journey. Reading practice, stories, and writing are on the way — but it starts here, with a child, a letter, and the joy of hearing it speak.
