Description
This app doesn’t work reliably with iOS 15
Children love spelling in this engaging 'build and spell' game. Parents love how easy it is to add custom word lists and see children's progress. It's great for weekly spelling lists, learning new vocabulary, and spelling bee practice. Ages 4-8.
In the Little Big Car Factory, players become super spelling car designers! After selecting a vehicle to customize, they will spell words to gain access into each of the Design Labs at the factory. They will select from a variety of flashy paint designs, snazzy wheels, fun decals, and groovy radio tunes before taking it out for a spin on a non-violent race course that is different every time.
The simple, uncluttered interface makes it easy to set up word lists for your children. You can also add context sentences and record your own pronunciations.

Ratings and Reviews
Amazing app but now it crashes
Crashes every time I go to the parent page. Such a shame as this is my son’s favorite spelling aid and has been great up until now. So hoping it can be updated to fix the bug.
A+ Grade from the teacher!
This is the best app I have ever seen or used with my classroom. I had kids who are really struggling with the spelling words that our school system uses. When we started using Car Factory, the kids wanted to practice their words all the time. Getting to make their own cars and adding all the special features made it highly motivating for them. And the icing on the cake was when they were able to drive their car and collect coins. This app is absolutely amazing and I even intend on using it with some vocabulary this year as well. Thank you so much for your quality app. I would love to be able to sync my devices so I could see my kids progress all in one place. But, As long as they are practicing and loving learning, I consider this a win! You rock!
Amazing Results
Two of my children really struggled with spelling. I tried every app and phonics program out there. Nothing clicked. Then I came across this app and the results were immediate and amazing. My son is now at the top of his class and loves to read and write. My daughter went from failing to an “A”. As mother to watch your child struggle is heart breaking, but to watch them not just succeed but to do it with great joy is an amazing feeling that can not be described! This app is the only app that I found that not only allows you to customize their spelling lists but it also engages the child in a way that gets them wanting to learn more!!! Get this app. You will not regret it !!!
