Squash and Spell : Kids Typing

Super cute game perfect for the little ones, learning to spell! There's three different modes - spelling, with the rainbow where a word appears for you to fill in, letter one where you can hear the pronunciation of the letter with a "..is for ..." example of a word the letter is used in, and finally touch mode where you can draw and follow the shape of each letter. The voice actor is really great, loving the little effects and the different modes too. Overall really cute and fun for young children!

A wonderful game that provided to my toddler everything needed to jump start into letters, phonics, reading and keyboard familiarization all in open ended play. This app's graphics strike the delicate balance of not being too flashy where i feel it would make my kid crazy and zombiefied but also still engaging and fun and not dull for a toddler's short attention span. The open endedness style of play makes it ideal for a toddler to explore however they want, both as a joined activity with a parent or entirely on their own. The phonics are a nice touch whereas normally kids would hear the name of the letters ad nauseam they instead get to hear the sounds and associate that with the letter's name. All in all 10/10, highly recommend!

Promising start with my 4 year old. She mostly enjoyed the colours and aesthetic... and blowing up the letters!

Update: YAAY! I saw that they have custom words in Beta!! I can't wait to try it!! :D I love how cute this game is! it is a great way to work on both spelling and typing! My five and two year old love it, however my only wish for the game would be the ability to add a list of words to spell and type. I would love to upload our weekly spelling words for school onto the game for practice, but I can understand how that may be hard because it also speaks the words.

My 1.5 year old LOVES Squash and Spell! It's so simple but fun! There's no pressure; just fun goofiness!! And I LOOOOVE that it pronounces the words and letters as you type them. She's going to learn reading and typing all at the same time and very early! This has so much charm! I can't recommend this enough!

I bought it for my daughter who has a lot of fun playing on it, she tends to use the typing mode or clicks on the letter to spell the words. I really love the art style and there seems to be a lot of fun quirky functionality to discover outside of the spelling by clicking around.
