Ratings and Reviews
Good as part of a few apps used together
The app is a good start as it focuses on teaching the most commonly used and basic words for early reading and beyond. As a stand alone app, your child might get bored soon but if you add it to a mix of others to keep things fresh it will be a great addition. We have many of the "Eggy" apps and find find them great as diversions and additions to the online Reading Eggs program. My 5yo son has been using all or most of these for six weeks and I'm astonished at his progress just as he nears the start of primary school. For a challenge to my 5yo, we had to turn the difficulty up high but that was the only way to keep his attention. I do agree with other comments on the reverse reward system; the sound and visual effects are so much more interesting when you lose so turn up the difficulty to focus the challenge elsewhere!
Trophies
Great app! Easy to use for my 4 year old, and it has improved his vocab tremendously. Only suggestion is could you please let us know what the requirements are to achieve each trophy. We have completed all the levels, but need to achieve a few more trophies, and my 4 year old is really keen to get them all. Thanks
Excellent!
Great tool for kids starting school as they need to learn and know these words. My 5yo loves it. Learning comes naturally through play.
