EDUCATIONAL APPS FOR 0-5 YEAR OLDS

 KIDS EDUCATIONAL APPS

In these days technology is a necessity of our lives.Most of the school work and projects are done through online Apps and google.During Covid time kids as well as parents were getting hold of  new Apps for online learning or even submitting their assignments .

Ive always wanted my kids to use screen time but to a certain extent and had set some time limit for them when they were young.They knew that when the Timer would ring they have to stop whatever they are doing on screen .I also wanted them to spend time on screen to, watch something creative or learning and downloaded some learning Apps for them to boost their brain rather than just sitting and watching random you tube videos or playing violent games.

While searching for some good Alphabet Apps for my four year old who is now 6:)I came across some great Apps  which she enjoyed and which are listed below for you to try out with your little one!!




Reading Eggs:

This is an interesting App which makes reading fun and interesting for kids.It has personalised one on one lesson designed according to childs ability.It is suitable for 2+ years and it covers phonics,phonemic awareness,vocabulary,fluency as well as comprehension.My kids used this app in their primary years and did some extra reading at home with reading eggs book set .Kids move on to different levels and they recieve golden egg to collect which makes it exciting for them.you get a free 30 day trial and then if you like it you can pay for its subscription.This App is widely used in overseas school as a part of schools curriculum.




ABC MAGIC PHONICS:

This is a free App and easy to use .It also has a pronounciation option ,when you click on the letter it pronounces it.This App even has a fun matching game to match the picture with its begining sound and also some other pictures that begin with same sound which helps to improve childs vocabulary.



Spelling&Phonics :Kids Games:

This app is great for teaching CVC words and kids can easily memorize the spellings in a fun way.I introduced letters gradually to my daughter when she was 2.5 years old.Sometimes kids  aren't interested in books  and want to learn concepts in a form of a game.In this App they also get to choose stickers once they spell the words and have a collection of them at the end.
