Already enjoyed by over five million families, Kids Learn to Read is finally available on the App Store. Kids Learn to Read is a delightful game that invites preschool-aged children to blend sounds into words, read and form simple words, identify spoken words and learn word families. Its six sections include: Magic Letter Bridge: kids learn to blend letter sounds into words by moving Tommy the Turtle across the letter bridge Skateboards and Helmet: children practice reading as they are asked to fit Tommy's animal friends with skateboards and helmets. Turn the Blocks: kids make words in a way that's fun by turning real-looking blocks with letters on each side until the word is spelled out. Word Ball: children learn to identify spoken words by helping Tommy bat the right ball. Word Magic: kids learn about word families as they fill the corresponding pot with potion and watch magic happen Rocket Words: children get to practice word families as they assemble and launch a rocket into space If your children do not know the alphabet sounds yet, we recommend our Kids ABC Phonics app. And if your kids need to learn or practice the names of the letters, try our Kids ABC Letters app. Every section is designed to let children enjoy success time after time and receive positive reinforcement from the likable teacher, so they want to keep learning. Once your child is involved and happy, you can relax, with the assurance that he or she is having a great time - and learning.
