A large collection of leveled videos and interactive activities based on Little Friends (Oxford University Press) reading and writing curriculum. Then objective is to teach and reinforce 3,000 everyday words. Given what it does for how much it costs (up to $180/year) we suggest being careful when downloading this curriculum, especially considering that the program collection your email address and information about your child (age and name) before forcing you to subscribe.
The activities vary in quality, following the tried and true matching/coloring/tracing formats found in hundreds of apps. While they succeed in offering playful exposure to common letter and word themed play patterns, there's nothing all that unique.
Weaknesses include a menu that is poorly designed (the icons don't help you get to the content), some pushy design, with cluttered graphics and constant background music, and a general lack of original content. Some games take a long time to download; making us suspect that this app requires a solid Internet connection. Because this is a language program marketed in the US, it's also worth nothing that the narrator has an English accent.
We reviewed this app because Apple has been featuring it without stating the price. You can try the app free for one week. After that ithe cost is $15/month using an auto-renewal system.
