"ParryLingo" is an English dictionary with pictures for children. The main feature of our method is that the lessons in the app look like a regular test, but after several cycles of repeating the pictures-hints in the questions disappear partly and step by step. Thus, children continue to choose the correct answer, already using only their memory, reacting to a communicative situation. This forms the connection "visual image of the object - the word - pronunciation". This app is completely safe for children and there is no advertising in it. Thanks to this, children can take classes without the help of their parents, thereby immersing themselves in the world of English independently and at any time. Try it now! More than 100 lessons on the following topics are available in the ParryLingo appl: - Family - terminology of relationships within the family (ex. Brother - Sister). - Colors - names and pronunciation of colors on the examples of animals. - Nature - the names of natural zones and phenomena in combination with associative images (ex. Desert - Camel). - Animals - more than 30 different species of representatives of the animal world. - Fruits - names of the most common types of fruits. - Toys - the simplest toys from a ball to a helicopter. - Parts of the body - the basic aspects of the structure of the human and animal bodies in a simple and clear way. We wish you and your children success in learning English! - Regards, ParryLingo Team. The app has paid content: unlimited creation of author's lessons, it requires payment.
