APPS WE LOVE

Superfonik

Sound out words one mini-game at a time.

Can you catch the k-i-d as you’re skydiving through the air? Sounding out words has never been as fun as it is in Superfonik’s mini-games. Each short game requires kids to zap, snatch, or eat objects that match a word on the screen. Sounding out increasingly difficult words is just part of the fun!

What we love: How the games are just as silly as kids are! In one game they play as a ravenous rodent, opening wide to fill their mouth with the correct objects. In another, they’re slingshotting unexpected snacks to a racoon. Kids will get so lost in their absurd missions that they won’t even realize they’re sounding out words along the way.

Kids will need to sound out words in each activity in order to progress to the next mini-game.

Quick tip: At first, words will automatically be sounded out for kids, and as they continue to play, they’ll have to sound them out for themselves. But if they need a little help, they can always tap each letter in a word to hear its sound.

Meet the creator: Piknik has created many fun and educational children’s apps that are all a part of a subscription bundle, so families can access several apps (including Sago Mini World, PAW Patrol Academy, Toca Boca Jr, and MathTango) across multiple devices with one subscription.
