Parents Choice Award Winner! No in-app purchases - all 60 word families are immediately available to help your child learn to read and spell.

In this classic carnival-themed app from the hit PBS KIDS preschool series SUPER WHY, kids ages 4-6 will learn reading, word-building, and phonics skills as they play along with the Super Readers.

Learning and practicing word families is a key literacy skill, as it helps children to build onto their letter sound skills to reading full words more efficiently. Children learn to identify these key rhyming word families to make them more fluent readers.

For even more Super Why reading adventures and different literacy skill-building experiences, be sure to check out Super Why Power to Read and Super Why ABC Adventures, both available in the Super Why Let’s Read bundle pack.
