Word Tales logo

Currently under redevelopment for the web, Word Tales is an award-winning interactive early reading program.


Word Tales teaches first letter sounds, not spelling; however when you choose an object that begins with the correct first letter sound, the name of that object appears in a list, showing how the word is spelled.		No time limits, buzzers or other negative feedback when clicking an incorrect answer. Instead, Word Tales pronounces the choice, encouraging you to try again.
