Pros and cons of Kids Learning to Read - Little Reader CVC Words app for iPhone and iPad

Kids Learning to Read - Little Reader CVC Words app good for

My 2 and a half learned so much playing this game! Its amazing!
Great idea for a word spelling game. Bt my daughter who is 2 loses interest in it very quickly.
My son loves moving the pictures and is learning quickly. I loved being able to add a picture of me for the word mom.
This app used to be awesome but the audio doesnt work anymore. It used to be a 5 star app.

Some bad moments

It basically teaches a kid how to randomly drag pictures into a box until it finds the correct box. Reactions not reading.
This app offers word picture match that can be used for both learning and assessment with disabled students. The number of items per page is adjustable and you can chose the words presented. Nice pictures also but some a little small. There are also some atypical words for a young child learning words but will be great for enrichment later
Interesting app allows children to build sight-word recognition. Has much more than the basic "cat - dog" words from MY day! Allows kids to think a bit!
I would give this app 5 stars if the pictures were bigger. The pics are smaller than a stamp and the kids sometimes have a hard time figuring out what things are because of the size. Other than that, i think its a great app! Please fix size of pics!
This is good for language comprehension learning by any children. My son is auditory processing impaired (aka autistic); this is very helpful. I would like to see option to put three or four words sentence strip (with picture merged with word) to teach him fragment unit of sentence. He learns best mastering small segments of sentence then see these put together to form a sentence. This skill building style works well for autistic kid. We like all your apps so far. Thanks.

A few update suggestions for this educational, research-driven already good app. 1. Make each word on/off so the parent can add vocab step by step as child is ready 2. Allow pronunciation on/off to be splittable, i.e pronounce for picture only, or text only, otherwise child can match sounds without reading when hint on, or never gets pronunciation guide with hints off. 3. Would be nice to make word lists from a master word bank. Even without, app is highly recommendable
