Vocabulary
Twelve high-frequency animal nouns kids see in early readers. Picture-to-word pairing builds the visual-verbal connection that early vocabulary depends on.
Listening
Every flip and match plays the matching English word, so kids hear and see vocabulary together — far more durable than reading alone.
Pronunciation
The current version uses your browser’s built-in English speech engine — clean and clear on iOS, macOS, Chrome, and Edge. Higher-quality recorded audio is rolling out in batches; words switch over automatically once their recording ships.
Memory practice
Three difficulty levels — picture-to-picture for younger kids, picture-to-word for early readers, word-to-word for stronger readers — train working memory in measurable steps.
