8/10 review by AppCritic (www.appcritic.co.uk)
"Not only are apps becoming more and more helpful in daily life, but they are quickly becoming great learning tools for kids too. ABC Aliens is one such app, a colourful and fun spelling adventure, aimed at teaching young children their ABCs."
*****
Letter recognition and learning phonics (the sounds that letters make) help provide the building blocks for your child’s reading and writing development. So, let our ABC Aliens give your child a head-start on their road to literacy success.
This beautifully-illustrated/animated and professionally-recorded (with US & GB accents) resource helps children master the English alphabet as well as the sounds each letter makes. Capital and lower case letters modes, as well as a choice of voices (alien or child) allow for even more flexibility in your child’s learning and development. Add to this the Record & Play Your Voice functions (iPhone/iPad only) and you have an app that is hard to beat when it comes to taking the first steps towards successful reading and writing. To consolidate what your child has learnt, why not take the addictive ABC or ZYX Countdown challenges?
Loved by children, both native and non-native speakers of English, from ages 3 to 10, (as well as their parents and teachers!) ABC Aliens is a stimulating way to join in and engage with your child’s learning while boosting their English level through educational play.
Developed by online & mobile education specialists, Cambridge English Online Ltd, with 10 years’ experience creating cutting-edge online and mobile resources, ABC Aliens has been tested and reviewed by teachers and parents and aims to support National Curriculum guidelines on teaching and learning letters and sounds.
