Monster ABC guides your child in a really fun way through the process of literacy acquisition. It helps children get to grips with letters and the initial sound of words in the best way possible.

What is an initial sound?
Today, little ones use initial sounds to navigate the first stages of literacy acquisition. An initial sound is the first sound of a word and is represented by a letter or a letter combination (like “mm” in the word “mouse” and “sh” in the word “sheep”). Children learn how to make out the initial sound of a word and match it to a letter.

How does Monster ABC support literacy acquisition?
The app helps children to learn letters and the sound they make in a fun way by using pictures. Each picture represents a word whose initial sound must be matched to the corresponding letter. If the initial sound and letter match, your child will enjoy a true sense of achievement. In doing so, the child easily recognizes the correct combination of initial sound and letter. The learning process is supported interactively with visualizations and sounds that are perfect for children.

In addition, a free-of-charge initial-sound table, featuring pictures and their matching initial sounds from Monster ABC, can be downloaded from the wonderkind website: https://s3.amazonaws.com/wk-anlaute/wonderkind_initial_sound_table.pdf

Horrible

Horrible boring app. I want my money back


Confusing Vowels
KiwiinNC

While I think it's important for children to hear and understand different accents, I don't think it's helpful for children learning their letters and sounds. The British accents is confusing here - they use short i for o? I hate to say it - but maybe they need to use an American accent for American audiences.

Really bad & boring. I’d like my money back, too.


It's ok ...

Boring for my son but he actually learns something so I rate it 4 stars. Love it that you can switch from upper case letters to lower case letters.

My son and I love it. It's fun matching and getting the gold coins. Has anyone ever gotten to the gold level? I feel like I'm a pro and can't get passed the silver level!
