First Words for Toddlers Lite

This app is excellent to teach kids how to read and write. The app shows you an image then the name of that image and your kid have to match the letters with the word, it tells your kid the sound of each letter and how to read it. Your child definitely is going to know how to read and write sooner than normal. Proved with my 3 year old kid.

This is one of those apps that should be included in schools. Great for learning to sound out the words and spell them as well. The sound effects and graphics only make it better. This is highly recommended for kids learning to read.

Being an English teacher in Japan, and having a Japanese/American son, I know the importance of phonics. If a child or adult can conquer English phonics, they can read anything in English, and will have a huge advantage in conquering English speech too. This game has a lot of free play before you need to upgrade to the pro version and even the free play is a great start for an English learner. Also, this game has great sound effects, great interface, color-coding to help the true beginners, and even encouragement when the user gets the answer right. Overall, a very cool app! Keep it up.
