A few things parents ask.
What does the app include?
Phonics Play includes 69 mini-lessons across 13 learning worlds and 13 main games. Children practise letter sounds, blending, words, spelling, listening and reading.
Does it teach French phonics?
No. Instructions can appear in French, but phonics sounds, practice words, stories and answers remain English.
Where is progress saved?
Progress is saved in the same browser on the same device. It does not automatically move between devices or browsers. Clearing site data or using private browsing can remove or limit saved progress.
Which app can I use now?
The public web app is available through the Download page. We do not display unverified App Store or Google Play listings. No email address is required to open the web app.
How does the audio work?
English letter sounds use recordings. Spoken words and read-along features also use voices available on your device. Start audio with a tap and check the device volume. French spoken directions depend on an available French voice.
Does the app record my child?
Recording is an optional, parent-enabled practice feature. Short recordings stay temporarily in memory for playback and are not uploaded. They are cleared when leaving the activity. This is not automatic pronunciation scoring.
Where should we start?
Begin with a sound your child recognises. If matching sounds to letters is comfortable, try blending a simple word such as sat. Return to an easier activity whenever useful; the website does not provide a placement assessment.
How long should a practice session be?
Try one small activity together and stop while your child is still comfortable. Five to ten minutes is a practical starting idea, not a requirement or a guaranteed route to progress.
Are there subscriptions or prices on this site?
No paid plans or billing terms are advertised here. You can open the currently available web app directly. Any future paid offering would need clear terms before purchase.
Can parents join in?
Yes. Listen together, model one example and let your child try. French instructions can help a French-speaking adult understand the task while keeping practice in English.
A LITTLE PRACTICE. A BIG ADVENTURE.
