Help your child learn how to pronounce all of the consonant sounds in the English language and practice them in words and short sentences. The app contains interesting pictures, fun exercises and games to keep children engaged and motivated to practice their sounds.

The app is developed in collaboration with a UK Certified Speech and Language Therapist. It works through each sound in a systematic way; beginning with easy combinations of consonants and vowels before moving on to longer words, phrases and sentences.

The app covers all 24 English consonants and additional consonant clusters. It practices consonants at the initial, medial and final positions in words. Practice is offered at a single-word level, in short phrases and sentences. Words are spoken in an English accent.

The app features engaging pictures of common objects, nouns, verbs and adjectives. These are carefully selected to suit both children and adults. The app is also an excellent resource to support vocabulary development and memory.

The app includes flashcards with spoken word, memory games and a useful record-playback facility. The ability to record and hear their own voice helps children to learn how to listen to their sounds and check that they are pronouncing the sound correctly.

Using the app will help to motivate your child to carry out the regular home practice, making it less like ‘homework’ and more like a fun game.

Before using the app, your child should be able to pronounce the sound in isolation and with a vowel e.g. bee. The exercises and games will help your child to use the sound in more complicated words, phrases and sentences.

The flashcards provide a picture and written word in addition to speech; helping your child with word recognition and vocabulary building.
