Word Zoo - the learn-to-read dynamic dictionary
Word Zoo is a new approach to helping children learn to read. It enlists your child's short-term memory for recognising letters and words, rather than requiring on-screen pattern matching. Word Zoo's in-built dictionary empowers your child to solve reading puzzles on their own and, by holding letters and words in memory, consolidate word recognition into a long-term skill.

Word Zoo engages your child in the learning process, letting them personalize their experience by taking a photo, recording a victory jingle and adding their own words to the dictionary. Parents, carers and teachers may also like to modify Word Zoo's dictionary to tailor the challenge to the child's level and interests.
Word Zoo has no ads and no in-game purchases (other than a one-off to upgrade to the full version if desired). It is ideal for ages 3 to 6, but has levels suitable for younger children learning letters, and older children learning sight words.
