App Description

Welcome to “Spanish First Words with Phonics“ the first educational application to teach children Spanish through letter sounds (phonics) and letter names, that also provides the choice between distinción or seseo. Your child will start off by learning the sounds of letters through phonics (distinción or seseo mode) and how these associate to specific words. As your child’s understanding of the sounds and names broadens your child will move on to learn the names of the letters (distinción or seseo mode) and how they are used to form words, learning spelling at the same time. The three different hint alternatives (color hints, letter hints and color and letter hints) combined with five more settings, will challenge your child and adjust the level of difficult. The unique interface, featuring a list of thumbnails, allows your child to explore all the words and will offer endless hours of fun and education.

Featured by Apple on New & Noteworthy and What’s Hot for the iPhone on the US, Spanish, and Chilean App Stores in two categories Games/Educational and Games/Kids!
