After trialling this I could see how helpful this was for my nearly four year old so decided to go ahead and buy it. I am so glad I did as in a short space of time she was reading sentences and is now reading confidently on her own. I bought ABC Reading Eggs for my second daughter and although I try to limit her IPad use to once or twice a week I can see how much she has picked up.
The characters and graphics are fun and easy to understand - very useful tool to teach kids to read.
Approximate cost: $80
I agree Reading Eggs is a great investment in your children's education.
Both of my girls have been using it for a few years now.
It really has some great programs for the kids.
My 5 year old has Reading Books which she has been using for a while now and its helped her to read.
A great preparation to schooling years.
A great program for kids of any age.
Reading Eggs is a great investment in your children's education. It is used in my household for my three boys aged 4, 6 and 8. My 4 year old is getting ahead in preparation for school next year, by learning his letters, sounds and small words. My six year old enjoys the stories and the games and his reading has improved dramatically. My 8 year old does Reading Express and enjoys the Quote Quests and Trading cards. I can't recommend this product highly enough. It makes leaning fun!
I agree a great investment indeed, we have been using it for a few years now.
Both of my girls are loving it
my daughter started using this in prep via her school, once she showed me what it was and how much it was teaching her i had to buy it for home because i thought it was great! my other daughter now uses u]it daily and has learnt so much . it really is great value
Sounds like a great aide for young children, thanks for the review!
I teach in secondary schools and so we use the Reading Express program (part of reading eggs) and I enjoy seeing how excited my year 7 and 8 boys are at earning eggs to 'pimp' out their pad - meanwhile they are reading and completing comprehension and literacy challenges to earn these "eggs" without realising they are reading.
Approximate cost: $20 per student for 12 months
i stated using this program with the free trial offer, my daughter loves it, and its an amazing learning program and a fun way for children to learn
I have just joined ABC from a free sample offer i received a couple of weeks ago. i wanted this for my 3 year old to learn to puzzles, reading skills, phonics in a fun way. So far i think it is fantastic and will continue still once my 3month free trial expires.
I only started using this program because of the free trial and I think it is great. My daughter loves it and it is helping her a lot with her reading. I think it is great that because her school is using the program she can continue her progress at home and vice versa. Once my free trial ends I will be looking into buying a subscription.
very good im adicted to hadnt thought of reviewing fcebook though..great idea and good comments
My boys have been using reading eggs since the beginning of this year and is a clear favourite. Reading Eggs has taught my three year old and five year old to read. It is simple for them to navigate without my help and has become part of their daily learning routine. I like the map feature as it encourages them to complete stages. The animation is bright, appealing and entertaining. It is a great way to teach letter sounds and encourage reading.
My little boy found Reading Eggs much easier to understand than Letterland. I think the animations are great and the levels are suitably increasing as their skills develop.
my daughter has had a membership for the past two years. Reading Eggs has prepared her for school, she is now a confident reader.
Thanks so much for the review! Can't wait to use this for my little baby girl:)
My daughter loved this site, it was great, the fact that she loved it meant that she spent time on it and her reading improved because of it
Couple weeks into my 2 month free trial and have decided to definitely purchase a subscription at the end - my 6 year old son has had a massive improvement in his reading at school in just 2 weeks - amazing !
My 3 year old and 5 year old enjoy Reading Eggs, and constantly ask me to put it on for them. The games are aimed at just the right level, with the right level of repetition and length of time for each game. It's very cute and I hope it is a learning experience. Certainly good if your little ones want computer time and you want them to play something other than Mario Kart! The prices are a bit dear, and it annoys me that I need to pay twice for having two kids use it.
Approximate cost: $80 a year for one child, 50% of that to add another child
My son has access to this via his school and LOVES it! I love to get the email telling me of his progress. And it's usually a couple of levels each time he uses it!
Get program! Keep up the great work!
Approximate cost: $0
My little boy loves doing these lessons. He has learnt his ABC so quickly by using their method, but he doesn't see it as work or boring. Also by using eggs they can learn about working for something & when you have enough you may purchase things.
Approximate cost: $70.00
Great way to learn reading and writing and computer skills with great fun. My kids love it. Great animation to entertain them with full of games that they buy with their eggs. Teaching them the value of money - in this case 'eggs'.
