Three little hops to reading

Every lesson follows the same simple path, so children always know what comes next.

  1. s
  2. a
  3. t
  4. p
  5. i
  6. n
  1. Listen and say

    Your child hears each sound in a real, warm voice, watches an animal act it out, then says it back.

  2. Trace and play

    Little fingers trace each letter on the screen, then play short games to practise the new sound.

  3. Read real words

    Sounds blend into words like sat, pin and tap, and then into short stories your child can read.

What is inside the app

Short, playful activities that build on each other, made for small hands and short attention spans.

  • Letter sounds

    Starting with s, a, t, p, i and n, every sound is spoken in a real recorded voice and acted out by an animated animal.

  • Blending

    Children slide sounds together, s…a…t, until they hear a whole word pop out.

  • Helper words

    Little words like “is” that children learn to spot quickly, so stories flow.

  • Three mini stories

    Short read-along stories such as “Pat sat on a tin”, using the words from the lessons.

  • Word games

    Fill the gap, match the picture, rhyme families and flash cards turn practice into play.

  • Stars and a certificate

    Every finished part earns a star and a puzzle piece. A full puzzle becomes a certificate with your child’s selfie.
