Parents love WORD Force

“These reading games are awesome! A few days ago, my 5-year-old did not know how to rhyme and was having trouble with a number of letter sounds. Now he is pointing out the first letter of every object he sees and pretending he is “Robot Pig,” one of the characters in the game. My partner and I were blown away at the change. The diverse characters and silly narratives hooked him instantly, and I feel good knowing that his screentime is active learning time.” - Parent in Virginia

"Thank you so much. This is the first computer program I have found that provides good practice of basic reading skills in a game format that stays more focused on the phonics and reading skills being practiced. What I have found is that often, the game aspect of the program takes precedent over the reading skills. Thank you also for making this available for everyone. What a wonderful gift to the children, their families, and the community!" - Reading Specialist
