How it works

✏️1

Add this week's words

Type in the sight words you want to focus on this week, plus a few of your child's favorite things, like unicorns or soccer.

🎧2

Your child practices

Short, gentle activities with a friendly voice: hearing words, reading sentences about their interests, typing, and games. No timers, no pressure.

You see the progress

A clear list of which words are mastered and which still need work, week by week, so you always know how it's going.

Why it works

  • The teacher's list comes first. Practice is built from the exact words your child's teacher sends home, not a generic list. App time matches classroom time.
  • A little, across days. A word only counts as mastered after your child gets it right on separate days. This is the same spaced repetition reading teachers rely on. Five minutes a day beats an hour on Sunday.
  • Audio everywhere. Every word, sentence, and instruction can be read aloud by Sprout, so children practice on their own. You get a clear report of what's sticking.

Three ways to practice

Every activity is read aloud on tap, so even pre-readers can join in.

📖

Sight word practice

Spot the word, read the sentence, build a sentence, fill in the missing letter, and more. Activities rotate so it never feels repetitive.

🔤

Typing practice

Hear a word, then type it. Great for kids who love the keyboard and need the spelling to stick.

↔️

Letter & number practice

For b/d mix-ups and backwards 3s: your child listens for a letter or number, then picks the one facing the right way.

Why parents like it

Made for your child

Practice sentences use your child's name and real interests, so the words actually mean something to them.

Gentle by design

Kids move on only when they're ready. Wrong answers get a kind nudge, not a buzzer. Celebrations are silly animals, not points or leaderboards.

Private and calm

No ads, no trackers, no social features, no outside links. Just your family and this week's words.

Works anywhere

Five minutes of practice on a phone, tablet, or computer fits wherever your evening does.

Plant this week's words. Watch them grow. 🌟
