What it is: Phonics and spelling practice (consonants, short vowels and long vowels).

What you do with it: 9 different activities, e.g: point to the objects with names beginning with a certain sound, point to the letters making certain sounds, point to the words beginning with certain sounds, create new words by replacing one letter in a given word etc. There is a simple scoring/motivation system (correct answers earn stickers for the 'sticker zoo').

What we really liked: the concept, easy operation, voice clues, good educational value, multiple user accounts with detailed progress stats, overall quality of the app.

What we didn't like: the activities get repetitive after some time. Navigation could be better (e.g. we couldn't find a way to return to the main menu, no option to choose specific letters/sounds to practice manually etc). The reward system may not offer enough incentive for the target age group. For use in schools 3 user accounts may not be enough.
