"First Words is an application that teaches letters and words in a fun and interactive manner. These apps are extremely user-friendly and will aid your children's learning with vibrant illustrations and vivid colors. Each app supports children's learning and promotes exploration and discovery through engagement, reward, and instruction." — Fun Educational Apps "Excellent - As an educator, I appreciate this game! It exemplifies what technology was meant to achieve!" — iTunes Review "This app offers excellent settings that allow you to adjust the difficulty level for children - providing numerous hints or almost none at all. The letters smoothly glide into each word, and upon completion, the child is rewarded with an enlarged and briefly animated image of the pictured animal." — Carisa Kluver at Digital Stortyime "First Words Deluxe is a straightforward word-building game. Words are either spelled out letter by letter as they are dragged into the corresponding gray boxes or can utilize phonics for a smaller set of words. This feature makes the game enjoyable for pre-readers and early spellers alike." — Common Sense Media "If you seek to assist your toddler in recognizing letters and spelling words up to eight letters long, then First Words Deluxe may be precisely what you need. This pre-reading and spelling application fosters vocabulary growth in various categories such as vehicles, animals, at home items, colors, and shapes." — Andrea Gardner at Applicable2u "First Words is an outstanding app -- Leo loves First Words because it's entertaining and uncomplicated. I appreciate it because he's learning how to spell words with an interface that ensures error-free learning." — Shannon Des Roches Rosa at Squidalicious
