This app would probably be good if it had sound. Not very helpful for spelling if no one can hear what word to spell...
He or she is so wrong. Something was probably wrong with the iPad or the sound was off.
My 6 year old absolutely loves the game. It has some challenging words for him and others are easy; so I think he’s the perfect age for it. We let him play iPad while we take a shower, and the last 3 days, it’s the only one he’s played!!
Both grandkids have a great deal of trouble spelling. They are ages 10 and 7. The 10 year old is at the upper range for this game EXCEPT he can enter words of his own choice. He has chosen to play this game over all the others he has available! This is a HUGE win. The 7 year old finds the preset word list most appropriate. Bring on additional spelling games!
This app is amazing and so needed. It allows you to add your own words and record them too. I would love to see more levels added or more spelling Apps from your company. My children found it engaging although they are older than its target audience.
This game was short. Our child completed it in an hour. It’s definitely not $4 worth of content.
My kids are having fun with this app and getting better at spelling. Well worth the three bucks.
My kids, 5&7, downloaded this app last night because they liked the horse picture. After they started playing the realized they needed to spell to play it. Fortunately we have been working on words and they were excited to answer most of them. We all sat at the table and played together for a few hours! They loved it! The first thing they did this morning was go right back to this game! An app that can teach my kids a life skill and make it fun at the same time is a 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Great job whoever you are!
As an SLP, this app is great fun for my students! Entertaining and engaging, my students didn't realize they were working on spelling skills! Love the graphics, characters, and the letter hunts! Students will love searching for gold and making words with the sounds they find! Great for use with multiple students! Excellent educational app! I can always trust Artgig Studio to deliver quality educational apps!
