Phonics Island Letter Sounds Reviews

I purchased PhonicsIslandLetterSounds because my son was tracing and liked it. But after full purchase still we are getting only trial version level

PhonicsIslandLetterSounds would be great if it just updated from the trial app. I bought the full version and we lost all our stickers:(

My son was in level 6 and it got to the place where you put the animals with the correct sounding the train and it jams! He put the 1 st Q word (animal) in the train but when he went to put the 2nd one in, it kept asking the question but the screen was not allowing him to do anything. We went back out and started over but same exact problem. Please fix this as it is very annoying and makes it impossible to finish to the rest of the game!

My son really loves PhonicsIslandLetterSounds, but after tracing the letters so many times he doesn't want to do that anymore. I can turn that function off in the settings when using my iPad, but it does not show that function on the Kurio tablet. It just doesn't make sense because all the other options are there. I checked the developers web site and could not find a solution so I just emailed them today. I'll post if they provide a solution.

P.s. Check the developers website link for solutions to most of your issues

I generally like PhonicsIslandLetterSounds. I haven't been through all the levels yet, but there is a bug on level five. When you get to the very last set of exercises on that level, the train grows as animals are selected. However, once you select one animal for each sound, the train asks for more animals and you are unable to select any animal. And even of you could select more animals, there is no train car to put them in. On that level the train never pulls out of the station. As a result, it's not possible to complete the level. And the poor kid never gets the prize. My four year old was disappointed.

I never buy full apps. I just let me kids at few ones. But when my 2 year old was choosing correct letters after a few weeks, I broke down and bought it. The only thing is, the tracing is a bit hard, even for my 4 year old.

This game is great and my kids love it! They love tracing the letters, putting the animals in the train cars, and my almost 2 year old son absolutely loves to pop the balloons. One problem that I have noticed with the game is on level 6. When you get to the second part of placing animals in the train cars it asks for the animals that begin with either Q, Y, or Z, but there is only one animal that begins with the letter asked for. Once you choose that animal, the game either freezes or there is no other animal to choose from so you can't complete the game. If this could be fixed, that would be great.

PhonicsIslandLetterSounds gives kids two main tasks: There's a matching game, in which the phonic value of each letter is sounded whenever its card is turned over, and there's a section where animals need to be put into a train based on the sound you hear when saying the animals' names. The graphics are nice, and you can skip ahead easily if you've already heard the directions. What I don't like is the "start" screen, which consists of a sun which you push to start the game -- but its surrounded by a dozen other apps that CF Corp is trying to get you to download. It's aggressive marketing, it's a distraction for any five year old using PhonicsIslandLetterSounds , and it irks me every time I see it. Once you get to the rest of PhonicsIslandLetterSounds , though, everything's great. The memory game is a great way to learn phonics values; my kid loves it.

Ok, I never do reviews but I had to say something about this one. It is awesome. My son fell in love with it on sight. He is 2 and the letter sounds activities were so much fun for him. He laughed while popping the balloons and seeing things fall. So he definitely had fun while learning. I quickly realized that I needed the full version. So I purchased it. This was just the first night so I am sure he will spend lots of time learning on PhonicsIslandLetterSounds. He was very upset because I made the dreadful mistake of introducing him to PhonicsIslandLetterSounds close to bedtime. Don't make that mistake....✌🏾

My son loves this game and it really is a very good game. My son is learning and he thinks the game is fun. The problem is the tracing. It is so sensitive and frankly difficult for my 4yr old and myself. He's starting to get so frustrated that he wants to quit that whole game over this one issue. I hope the game makers will fix this problem. When you trace you have to be COMPLETELY precise and even then it doesn't always work. Other than that one thing, it's a great great game.

Abby Monkey is a really fun character. The graphics and sound quality are fantastic playing this on an iPhone 5. The great thing about PhonicsIslandLetterSounds and others from 22L is that the kids are are occupied with some fun, but it's educational at the same time. With the matching game, it's not just rote memorization. PhonicsIslandLetterSounds is making the sounds of each of the letters, so the kids are actually learning their letters instead of just remembering the symbols.

As someone who is a huge fan of the Montessori Method of learning, I was ecstatic to find that Phonics Island Adventure impliments it into their app.

PhonicsIslandLetterSounds is packed with adorable animals and illustrations which kids will love. The fact that the developer is almost always adding new things is awesome, as well!

This is definitely a great app that's highly recommended for parents of youngsters who are learning how to read!

As a teacher, I am always looking for new ways to help my students along, and I regularly try new educational apps. So far this is one of the best apps I have seen for practicing phonics. My children use it and love it, my students parents’ come to me all the time telling me how much their child enjoys it and how much they have improved. 22learn is a great company and produces quality apps always.

I already bought this but all of a sudden it asks if I want to unlock the full version. What's up with that? It would be nice if the free & purchased apps had totally different icons. The grand kids love PhonicsIslandLetterSounds , but are opening the wrong one at times.

Double click home button..swipe the apps on bottom of screen from left to right and you will see a music control type looking thing come up. On the far left you will see a volume button that most likely will have a slash through it meaning its on mute. Click on it to un mute it. Now it will work..i followed their app support here and thats what they showed. It worked for me on all my apps that didnt play music that i bough.

My kids absolutely love PhonicsIslandLetterSounds and I can honestly say that Phonics Island Adventure is probably the best out there! My children are so inspired by the bright colors, user friendly interface and rewards PhonicsIslandLetterSounds presents. My kids think they are playing an awesome game while at the same time they are learning their letter sounds by associating it to their favorite animals and more. My kids love the newest update which includes new learning games such as tracing letters and identifying letters by sound! I highly recommend PhonicsIslandLetterSounds to any parents or teachers looking for a new and intellectual way to teach their children letter sounds!

My daughter plays PhonicsIslandLetterSounds all the time. She loves the game where she can pop the balloons with letters on them as well as the one where she puts animals whose name begins with a particular letter into the train. I am a demanding parent when it comes to high-quality educational media for children and I am more than happy that I downloaded PhonicsIslandLetterSounds for my 4-year-old daughter. PhonicsIslandLetterSounds is very engaging and easy to use for her, and she has already learned almost all the letter sounds. If like me you have a child who is just beginning to read, Phonics Island is the way to go to get them started. Letter sounds are pronounced clearly and you have the option to choose either uppercase or lowercase letters. In sum, this is a fantastic app!

it is so good for your kids to get smarter.

My 4 year old daughter is learning words quickly and having fun. Thanks.

I purchased PhonicsIslandLetterSounds for my nephew who's been having trouble learning to read. I wanted him to practice more, but I also wanted him to have fun while doing it so that he only has positive associations with reading.
I'm so glad that I got PhonicsIslandLetterSounds for him. His reading skills have improved visibly in the past few weeks and I can tell that he has a lot of fun using PhonicsIslandLetterSounds.
