AlphaBooks for iPad – A Great Way for Kids to Learn

Do you have young children at home learning the alphabet?  If so, Letter Buddies AlphaBooks for the iPad is a great educational app to add to your collection.

Created to help two to six year-olds prepare for school by learning letters, developing vocabulary and practicing basic reading skills, Letter Buddies entertains and teaches with its collection of 24 books.

One letter of the alphabet is featured in each book with the exception of X, Y and Z which are combined into one.  Each letter is a unique character with a descriptive name from Active A to Zany Z.

Kids select a letter, are introduced to letter names and then asked if they know any words that start with that letter.  They swipe the iPad’s screen to turn the pages and see a series of words and pictures alternating with simple sentences and descriptive photos for each word beginning with the selected letter.

Options allow users read letter books in two ways: Read to Me and Read it Myself.  Kids can also double tap the screen to repeat what was read and turn sound and word highlighting on or off.

Letter Buddies AlphaBooks is a cute educational app perfect for young children practicing letters and learning to read.  Simple sentences, fun character names and color photographs help children become letter masters and fluent readers.  You can download the app from the App Store for $5.99.
