Kids' Match

Your child hears a word and finds the picture that goes with it. 120 pictures, five themes, and no reading required at any point.

A picture matching game for children ages 3 to 6. Your child hears a word, then finds the picture that goes with it. No reading, no letters, no spelling.

What your child does

A word appears and is spoken out loud. Four pictures sit on the screen. Your child drags the right one onto the word. That is the whole game, and a three year old can do it on the first try.

The word is printed while it is spoken, so a child who is nowhere near reading still sees the shape of it. Nothing ever asks them to read it.

All four pictures come from the same theme

Play the Jungle and the choices are a monkey, a toucan, a fern and a cobra. Not one animal and three cars. Your child has to know which word goes with which picture rather than spotting the one that looks out of place, which is what makes it worth doing twice.

120 pictures across 5 themes

Jungle, Mountains, Backyard, Beach and Garden. Every theme holds 24 pictures in three sets of eight, ordered on purpose: set one is the things every child can already name, set three is the ones that take a closer look. Eight words is short enough to finish in one sitting.

Made for children who cannot read yet

Every word is spoken. Nothing on screen needs an adult to read it aloud, so your child can play alone.

See how they're doing

Every set is saved to Progress. You'll see the words your child matched, the ones they keep missing, and how that shifts week to week. Enough to know whether it's landing, without hovering over them while they play.

A profile for every child

Add as many children as you need. Each one keeps their own words and their own progress and picks up where they left off. Works for a family with three kids and a classroom with thirty.

Music written for it

Every theme has its own score from our in-house music studio, with sound effects to match. You know how most kids' apps get muted by day three? We wrote this one so you wouldn't have to.

Nothing about your child leaves this app

No accounts, no sign in, no ads, no trackers, no third party code of any kind. There's no server to send anything to. Your child's progress is saved on your device and stays there.

When they're ready for letters

Kids' Words picks up where this leaves off. Same themes, same voice, but your child starts placing the first letters of the word instead of matching the picture.
