Turn any topic into a podcast, story, or poem your family will love. Now with read-along sight words, printable coloring sheets, and two-host episodes in 15 languages. HootPODS turns any topic into a short audio episode made for your family. Ask a question from the dinner table, snap a photo of something you found on a walk, or pick a museum nearby, and HootPODS writes, narrates, and illustrates an episode around it in about a minute, pitched at the reading level you choose. CREATE ANYTHING • Podcasts, stories, and poems from any topic, 1 to 12 minutes long • Two-host conversations or a single narrator, with standard or premium voices • Personalize with first names and interests, if you choose to add them • Need inspiration? Explore Ideas across nature, history, science, stories, life lessons, and holidays, or tap Surprise Me • Photo to topic: point the camera at a leaf, a bug, or a landmark and get an episode about it • Nearby places: find museums, parks, zoos, and historic sites around you and make an episode about where you are • 15 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, and Turkish READ ALONG AND LEARN SIGHT WORDS • A read-along transcript highlights each word as it's spoken • Practice sight words: choose this week's words from the standard Dolch lists (Pre-primer through Grade 3), type or paste the list from school, or scan your teacher's weekly schedule • Episodes use this week's words the most and keep practicing the words already learned, and the read-along highlights them • A summary for grown-ups with vocabulary and conversation starters • Related book suggestions to keep the learning going PRINTABLE COLORING SHEETS Turn any episode into a black-and-white coloring page drawn from the story, then print it, save it, or AirDrop it.
