Knowing letter sounds is one thing. Blending them into a word — hearing /c/ /a/ /t/ become “cat” — is the real beginning of reading, and it’s exactly what the Foundational app teaches.

Short daily sessions guide your child from putting two sounds together all the way to reading whole short words smoothly. Games like Word Builder and Memory Match keep it playful, while every activity builds the same core skill: sounds, together, into words. The app models each step out loud, so your child always knows exactly what to do.

Most children complete Foundational in two to three months — and walk out of it reading their first words with confidence.
