Overview

Kids Learn to Read is the 3rd app in our Reading Curriculum Series.

★ Prerequisites:
Knowledge of letter names and sounds. If absent, first get Kids ABC Letters and Kids ABC Phonics.

★ Intended for:
Kids ages 2-8 (We thought 3 was the youngest, but parents are reporting otherwise).

★ Featured by:
Google at the Google I/O on May 11

★ "I couldn't get my phone back!"

Chosen to be featured at the Google I/O developer conference in San Francisco where its launch was announced on May 11th, Kids Learn to Read is a new child-pleasing addition to Intellijoy's best-selling reading-curriculum series, which includes two of the company’s top-ranked apps: Kids ABC Letters and Kids ABC Phonics.

Let's do the rest of the description in a question-and-answer form.

★ What will my children learn?

Kids Learn to Read is a delightful game that invites your children to practice blending sounds together to form, read and spell words that are all made up of only three letters of the alphabet, such as "dog","sun", and "big".

Kids Learn To Read assumes that your kids already know the sounds that the letters of the alphabet make. If your children do not know these sounds yet, we recommend our best-selling Kids ABC Phonics app.

And if your children have not had a chance to learn the names of the letters, we recommend that you download our Kids ABC Letters app. It's the most enjoyable way ever for kids to learn the names of the letters of the alphabet.

To summarize, Kids Learn to Read is a delightful way for your children to learn how to read simple words, all made up of three letters. Kids ABC Phonics is a fun way for them to learn the sounds of the letters. And Kids ABC Letters is a wonderful way for them to learn the letters of the alphabet.


★ What activities are included in this game?

The game has four wonderful child-friendly sections.

✔ Learn to Blend with Tommy Turtle. In this delightful learning activity, your children hand Tommy his walking stick, sneakers, and then a skateboard and watch him cross the letter bridge while they learn to blend letter sounds into words.

✔ Learn to Read with Tommy's Friends. Kids have fun practicing elementary reading as they are asked to fit Tommy's animal friends with skateboards and helmets.

✔ Learn to Form Words with Letter Cubes. In this inviting activity, kids get to make words in a way that's fun by turning real-looking blocks with letters on each side until the three-letter word is spelled out.

    Poor word examples in "blending sound" section

    Pictures appear at top of screen but they are unrelated to the sounds that are put together. Child is limited to hearing isolated sounds that may or may not blend to produce the word being presented, ex /b/ /o/ /y/ does not sound out as "boy." I was going to purchase other components of this app but I am somewhat reluctant to spend even a few dollars on phonemic awareness activities that may not provide appropriate examples. Other parts of this app were okay for teaching blending sounds. By the way I am an ESL/ early childhood teacher.

    My 4 year old loves this!

    My four year old would rather play with a video game than sit down and do flash cards and such, so this has been a wonderful tool to concrete his phonics and small word recognition! Amazing! I will be buying the other apps from this company.

    Neat App

    Very cute animations - I like that the child must go through the stages of piecing the words together before moving on - very bright and colorful. Children will enjoy the skateboarding turtle... : )
