Your child is smart. Reading just hasn't clicked yet, and that's not your fault, or theirs. Poppins Learning is a reading app for struggling readers ages 7 to 11, dyslexia included, studied in a published clinical trial (Scientific Reports, a Nature Portfolio journal, 2025). Built on the Science of Reading, Poppins Learning trains the skills underneath fluent reading through short, rhythm-based games: phonological awareness, phonics, and decoding. Twenty minutes a day, at home, on your schedule. Designed with neuroscientists. If homework has been ending in tears, or you've heard "I'm just not smart," Poppins Learning was built for this moment. Most reading apps were made for kids who already read. This one is for the child who sounds out the same word every night, who hides their book, who's quietly falling behind while everyone says "they'll catch up." WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL DO - Play rhythm games that train phonological awareness and decoding, the foundations of reading - Sound out and decode new words through playful written-language games. Play, not pressure - Build reading fluency and confidence, one small win at a time - 20 minutes a day, with screen time capped automatically. No ads, no endless scrolling WHY PARENTS CHOOSE POPPINS LEARNING - Studied across four clinical trials, two of them randomized controlled, one published in Scientific Reports, a Nature Portfolio journal, 2025 - Made specifically for dyslexia and struggling readers, ages 7 to 11 - Built with reading specialists, and far less than the cost of weekly tutoring ON ITS OWN, OR TO COMPLEMENT A SPECIALIST You don't need a tutor or a reading specialist to start. Most families use Poppins Learning on its own, as daily reading practice your child can do at home on any schedule: phonics and decoding they can work on anywhere. And if your child already sees a reading specialist, tutor, or teacher, Poppins Learning fits right between sessions and keeps progress going every day, whether you have help in place or you're still on a waitlist. Either way, it's designed to support, not replace, professional help when your child needs it. Start your child's free 7-day trial, then subscribe in-app. Cancel anytime.
