We've added more words, more languages, and phonics. First Words Deluxe provides endless fun for the toddlers in your life, all while giving your child a head start on learning their letters and learning to spell words. Now with Spanish, French, German, Japanese, plus US and UK English. First Words Deluxe is toddler-tested and approved, with a user-interface designed specifically for the littlest of fingers. The game includes over 150 words in five kid-friendly categories: ** Animals ** ** Vehicles ** ** Colors ** ** Shapes ** ** Words from around the house ** (Fewer words are shown when the phonics option is selected, because many English words are not spelled phonetically. A total of 68 phonics words are included.) A wide range of options let you tune the game to match your child's current skills and abilities. If your child is old enough to ask for your phone, they're old enough for First Words Deluxe! Here's what educators and reviewers have said about our First Words apps: “First Words is an app that teaches letters and words in fun and interactive way. Very easy to use these apps will help support your little ones learning with great illustrations and bright colors. Each app supports kids learning and encourages kids to explore and discover by revealing, rewarding and teaching.” -- Fun Educational Apps “Excellent - As a teacher, I love this game! Just what technology was meant to do!” -- iTunes Review “This app has great settings that let you control the level of difficulty for the child – either with lots of hints or almost none at all. The letters slide nicely into each word and when completed the child is rewarded by having the pictured animal enlarge and animate briefly.” --Carisa Kluver at Digital Stortyime “First Words Deluxe is a very straightforward word-building game. Words are either said letter by letter as they are dragged into the appropriate gray boxes or, if chosen in the settings, a smaller set of words can be sounded out with phonics. This makes this game a treat for both pre-readers and early spellers.” --Common Sense Media “Looking to guide your toddler towards recognizing letters and how to spell words up to eight letters long? Then First Words Deluxe might be just what you are looking for. This pre-reader and spelling application encourages vocabulary development in a wide range of categories such as: vehicles, animals, at home, colors, and shapes.” --Andrea Gardner at Applicable2u "First Words is a great app -- as I said at the time, 'Leo loves First Words because it's fun and easy. I love it because he's learning to spell words, and the interface makes that learning error-free.'" ---Shannon Des Roches Rosa at Squidalicious *** We love getting feedback from our users.

My son is almost 4, he's autistic and loves letters. We've been told he'll probably learn to read and or spell before he is able to talk. 1. The app is easy to get the letters to snap correctly. Other apps are too precise and it causes frustration. 2. You can change the settings so that you can spell in any order or in order. After a while I switched it over to in order and my son has since mastered this spelling things like Pentagon or triangle or other big words in less than a couple seconds. 3. Just discovered you can toggle the hints. Now we've turned it up a notch. He has to spell the words from memory and in order. 4. When you tap the picture of the word you have to spell it says the name of the object out loud so they can also associate the sounds with the order of letters. This app is well worth the money! The art and animation are very basic but that's OK because our goal is identification of the sounds, spelling, and further driving the recognition of letters. Have had the app for about 1 year now. -- Thewhooooo, 2019-08-13 ### ***** "Love it!" I got this app to help teach my son his lowercase letters (already knew uppercase) in a fun way. I love how customizable the app is! In a short time my son has learned many of these words. -- Laurenm328, 2017-02-17 ### ***** "Love this app for early literacy skills!" In settings there is an option to make the user spell from left to right. Everytime you select a letter, the app says it and then will spell the word and pronounce it. My three year is definitely engaged and will repeat the letters along with the app! -- rrich1984, 2016-03-06 ### ***** "Simple but (therefore) attention-grabbing" 4 thumbs UP! (2 from me, 2 from the kid) Our 3.5-year-old will easily sit half an hour playing this game (he would keep going if I'd let him). I like its simplicity without extra fluff. All the setup options are very intuitive and straight forward too. Our son kept picking letters out of order, and it was bugging the OCD in me. So I went to settings, and there it was, the "left to right" option. Tada! We've only played the shapes category so far, but I like the variety that goes beyond the regular, way too common geometric shapes. Having the Japanese option was actually the determining factor for us, and I would think any parents who are raising their children in one of the optional languages would really appreciate the multi-lingual function. We had the free version for a long time but now that our son is really picking up on letters and sounds, we decided to get the full version even though I knew the app was old with no updates of late. But lo and behold, I was pleased to see that it was just updated a month ago! Yay! The animation and the drawings are very basic, which can be improved, I suppose. I do however like the bold (again, simple in a good way) colors. -- Ju :D, 2015-11-13 ### ***** "Just wow" Thanks to this app my 2 year old knows her abcs upper and lower case. She spells everything on sight. We try to keep her time limited to electronics. It's nice to have a good educational app for when she does use it. -- jo2ko, 2015-03-20 ### ***** "Absolutely great learning game!!!!" My 18 month old loves this game! So easy for him and saying the letters helps his abc's tremendously!! We upgraded and so glad we did! Would love to see a section for fruits too. Love this game for my toddler! -- Tw1822, 2015-03-02 [View all First Words Deluxe reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## First Words Deluxe In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Word Pack 1 | $4.99 | ## First Words Deluxe Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Singapore | Education | #36 | | Top Paid | Malaysia | Education | #37 | | Top Paid | Hong Kong SAR China | Education | #47 | | Top Paid | Philippines | Education | #49 | | Top Paid | Kuwait | Education | #54 | | Top Paid | Ireland | Education | #63 | | Top Paid | Thailand | Education | #66 | | Top Paid | New Zealand | Education | #76 | | Top Paid | Pakistan | Education | #80 | | Top Paid | United Arab Emirates | Education | #81 | | Top Paid | Lebanon | Education | #83 | | Top Paid | India | Education | #89 | | Top Paid | Egypt | Education | #90 | | Top Paid | Indonesia | Education | #100 | | Top Paid | Saudi Arabia | Education | #105 | | Top Paid | Vietnam | Education | #118 | | Top Paid | Taiwan | Education | #150 | | Top Paid | Colombia | Education | #179 | | Top Paid | Australia | Education | #186 | | Top Paid | Hungary | Education | #190 | | Top Paid | Canada | Education | #209 | | Top Paid | Greece | Education | #211 | | Top Paid | Poland | Education | #214 | ## First Words Deluxe Discovered Keywords -
