Safarispel
Afrikaans animal phonics game
$0.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A small Afrikaans safari game for kids. Spot animals in the wild, drag letters to spell animal names & hear phonetic sounds, & collect stickers for your field guide.
Safarispel is an educational game where children learn Afrikaans spelling and phonics of animal names as they drive through the African savanna.
HOW IT WORKS
1. EXPLORE: Drive through a calm safari scene and spot animals hiding in the bush. Animals appear randomly and every game drive is different.
2. SPELL: Hear letter sounds as you drag tiles into the right slots to spell the animal's name.
3. LEARN: Complete the word to reveal the animal, and discover a fun animal fact.
4. COLLECT: Earn stickers for your field guide. Find all 16 iconic African animals to complete your collection.
