The Alphabet Space Mission app uses exciting, interactive ABC Song Space videos, talking animated phonics flashcards and beat-the-clock, ‘Tilt & Play’ Matching Maze games to teach the ABCs and Phonics in a new and exciting way. Use this app as a full beginners phonics course, or to supplement current learning.

50% OFF for a limited time!

Let your young learner fly into space with five exciting ABC song videos that teach the ABC Song, phonics, and first words! Watch closely as you fly through space and find the items that are taught with each video! Then, let the fun and silly aliens teach beginning phonics sounds (sounds of letters used for reading) as you reach the alien planet!

The fun talking-flashcards teach the letter names, phonics sound for the letter, and first words using the letter. Learn that 'apple' and 'ant' start with 'a', then practise more words and letter sounds.

The ‘Tilt & Play’ Letter Match and Picture Match games are exciting, high-energy space mazes that will further reinforce all of the ABCs, Phonics, and Words that are taught in this app. Tilt your iPhone to steer your spaceman around the maze and hit the correct answer bubbles, BUT, watch out for the ice aliens! If they freeze you three times, it’s game over.

*There’s also a US English ('Zee') app version! This UK version has only 'Zed' sound + 'Zebra' pronunciation differences.*

**Supported with creative learning ideas and colour-in ABC worksheets.**

*Fully childproofed-no app store/ad/social media/web links (supporting parent resource link hidden in Help part)*
