Ivy Sprouts

Preschool Phonics, ABC & Math

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Meet Ivy, the little sprout who teaches your preschooler to read, rhyme and count, one joyful lesson at a time. Ivy reads every question out loud in a warm, natural voice, so your child can play on their own before they can read. There are no menus to figure out. One big play button starts today's adventure, and Ivy takes it from there. A FRIEND WHO CHEERS EVERY WIN • Ivy waves hello, shows what to try, and dances when your child gets it right • Tap Ivy any time to hear the question again • Real praise like "You put the sounds together!" instead of generic cheers • Balloon parties, bursting stars and flowers that bloom on the path WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN • Letter names and sounds, plus finding the letters in their own name • Letter tracing, one stroke at a time, with a start dot, arrows and a finger demo • Rhyming: hearing and matching sounds • Blending and breaking apart words (rain + bow = rainbow!) • Syllables: clap and count • First, next and last: the building blocks of sequence • Counting words in a sentence • Early math: counting critters, numbers to 10, shapes, patterns, more and less CALM CORNERS • The ABC corner for alphabet play any time • The Breathe corner, where Ivy guides slow, calming breaths for big feelings PROGRESS THEY CAN SEE • Earn stars, build day streaks and fill the daily seed tray • Finish a lesson for the first time and pick a flower for Ivy's garden. It blooms on your path forever. • A picture-based path that pre-readers can follow without any words BUILT FOR FAMILIES • Grown-Ups Corner (press and hold to open, so little fingers can't wander in) shows what your child practiced this week, skill by skill, in plain English • A separate profile for each child • Parents sign in once with Apple or Google • All lessons are free. No paywall, no third-party ads, no tracking, no chat and no social features. • Speech practice is checked on the device. Your child's voice is never recorded or sent anywhere. A full year of preschool literacy and math, mapped to real classroom standards and wrapped in play. Plant a seed and watch it grow. Questions or ideas?

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Tracing just got even better! • Big, beautiful tracing on iPad: letters and numbers now fill the screen like a real worksheet, with bigger buttons and letter tiles. • Smoother, fairer tracing on iPhone and iPad: the green ink follows your child's finger exactly, even on curvy letters like s, g and 8. • Letters always fit neatly in the drawing box - no more clipped tops or tails. • Ivy's direction chips now show slanted arrows for slanted lines.
