Eggy Words

The next educational app that I’m going to talk about is called Eggy Words. I just started using this app with my nephew as they are sight words that are on eggs that he will be learning and using. Eggy Words 250HD is an application designed to help children recognize and learn sight words. Sight words are words that readers should know automatically “at sight”, such as he, the, was and where. This app covers the first 250HD sight words using a fun and motivating game to keep kids learning. Learning to read is an important milestone in every child’s life. Knowing these sight words makes fluent reading easier, which lets the brain focus on the real enjoyment of reading – comprehension – understanding and enjoying what you read.
