Reading.com: Phonics for Kids

My son and I started using this app after he turned 4. My goal was for him to be able to read before he starts Reception (we are currently in England). We spend a few minutes almost everyday and he has enjoyed all of our sessions. It is amazing how his little mind works and picks up the method of learning with full cooperation and participation (sliding letters, writing)as well as play (I let him do the games after a lesson as a reward). After a few sessions he has been reading books independently, and different signs and statements he can see around him. His teacher has commended him for his reading when he officially started school. My son enjoys reading. We read different books daily. As a parent, I definitely recommend this app. I know it comes with a small cost but the progress and success it brings paves a long way.

Although keen to get this working/came recommended, I had to give up…. It is riddled with glitches. I wasted a lot of time installing/un/re-installing, emailing their customer services. Overall unresolved and slow to reply. Don’t waste your time!

This app has made reading easy and fun for us and my 5 yr old. He has yet to start kindergarten but is reading and sounding words out on his own. We are literally only on lesson 23 but he is reading full sentences, often recognizing words before we finish reading to him. He knew his letters and most sounds before we started on the app but this just makes learning much more fun. Great (plus affordable) investment into his future.

Need my money back

My six year old son completed all 99 lessons over the summer. His decoding ability, reading comprehension, and sight word recognition has soared! I love that the app would balance new sounds with review to keep his learning fresh. It was just the right pace the entire time! My son enjoyed the word games and felt proud each time he would read a new book during a lesson. The visual timeline was very encouraging for him to see just how far he had come! Highly recommend!!

It’s perfectly paced and is working!!

My son is reading so well, now! This app was absolutely the best thing we did for his reading. He loved the method and the games. Thank you for making the difference for us!!

I have a hard time trying to teach my child and usually don’t know where to begin. I love how this app tells me exactly what to say and do. I love love love it! Plus it’s a great time to bond with my daughter while she is learning.

I bought this at the beginning of the summer hoping to teach my daughter the basics of reading before going into kindergarten. School starts next week and I am so happy her progress she has made this summer. She went from knowing her letter sounds to making it all the way to level 53!! We will continue to use this app during the school year and hope to finish in the next two months.

This app is a game changer!! My kids love it and feel amazing once they complete each level! It’s easy to follow, I love that it’s not extremely busy, yet it’s not boring . Highly recommend
