“This program was amazing for my daughter! My husband and I have talked about buying it for the year since we have seen a huge progress in her learning, and have noticed a huge improvement in maths as well.” – Roxy McDonald
“It has been such a blast to get to know the program and watch Alaska play and learn on it- such a lifesaver for parents, the entire concept is genius! I am so glad I found it and will continue to recommend it to my mummy friends :)” – Tiffany
“My children love Reading Eggs! I've seen one reluctant reader grow in confidence and an emergent reader gain fluency. They have fun while learning and constantly ask if they can "play" on Reading Eggs.” – Steph K.
“I purchased this for my two grandchildren, ages 3 and 5. They both have enjoyed it. They love learning electronically and the graphics make it fun. The price is reasonable compared to other learning sites, which is always a bonus.” – 'Granny', 62
“I just wanted to tell you how wonderful your site is. My son is 3 and had been asking me to help him learn to read (as he already knew his alphabet). I tried your site and he has progressed at a rapid rate and now can read some sentences. I think you should put yourself forward for site design awards as the site is intuitive and allows children to develop mouse skills while they learn to read. I am very happy I came across Reading Eggs. Well done!” – Sharon
“My son started Reading Eggs about six months ago when he was 2. He is now on Map 6 and can read basic books, which is great. The other benefit of the program (aside from him teaching himself to read at age 2) is that he is so completely addicted that we can get him to do anything else simply by threatening a day without Reading Eggs.” – Kate
“I just wanted to congratulate the Reading Eggs team on such a wonderful product. Earlier this year, my 3-year-old daughter was pestering me to teach her to read and I had no idea where to start. I found your Book Pack in a local bookstore and haven't looked back. After four months, she's now on the fourth map and loving every minute of it. She gets such a sense of satisfaction every time she gets a new critter, and I love seeing her eyes light up when she knows that she can read a book by herself. Thank you again! Without Reading Eggs, I'm not sure what I would have done for the next two years before she's allowed to go to school!” – Rebecca
“Firstly, thank you. your program is helping both my little boys learn to read, and love doing it. It is excellent, and to have my 3-year-old read a book to me is magical. The self-esteem boost it has given to my very bright, but not very motivated 5-year-old is amazing, so thank you.” – Helen
“What you have done with this program is so fabulously fantastic. My 3-year-old daughter just can't get enough of it and she is so happy when she can recognise words or sometimes read entire sentences. We recommend it to all our family and friends with kids. Keep up the great work. We appreciate it very much.” – Roshan
“[My child] keenly picks out letters and words that she recognises when we're reading traditional books, and picks up things like word repetition on the page. She also talks about it and relates everyday things to Reading Eggs; she may hear a word or phrase and say, 'Mum, I learned that on my Reading Eggs.'” – Gina
“I think your program is just fantastic. My son started playing with it at 3 years of age and is now 4 and loves it. I notice he can read words all around – on the TV, in books, magazines and the kids' names on the role at preschool, which has more than impressed quite a few of the mums! I have told so many friends about how great Reading Eggs is. It is quite simply one of the best money I've ever spent!” – Katie
“[I] will be purchasing a subscription to Reading Eggs as my kids LOVE it and have to be dragged away from the computer for meals and baths. My 3-year-old is starting to read sentences and my 5-year-old is excited that the programcomplements his school work in Year 1.” – Lisa
“My girls love Reading Eggs! They are eager to go to their map and crack their egg to see what hatches. I love the variety of lessons it offers.” – Mom of four girls, Homeschooler
“My daughter loves Reading Eggs! She is so excited by the progress she has made through the site. She enjoys the games and is learning so much. I highly recommend it. It is great for learning phonics and letter sounds. The games are fun and educational. We will continue to use Reading Eggs until she is reading on her own!” – Alycia A.
“We first got Reading Eggs last year for our older son who was struggling slightly with his reading. He did really enjoy it and caught up at school, [then] his younger brother, then 3, really got hooked. Before Christmas last year [my youngest] knew maybe five letters. By Easter he knew them all and had started reading. It shocked us all and the teaching staff. He is in reception now and is far ahead with his reading skills for his age. My daughter, now 2, is showing an interest and knows several letters already. I know there are cheaper and free websites out there but this one works for us. It's a case of Reading Eggs winning over TV every time.” – Kate H.
“I am a mum of five young boys, two of which enjoyed your program so much they would rush home from school to be the first one on […] The younger kids sit in amazement watching and listening as Sam the Ant sings and dances; he even gets my attention with his catchy rhymes. I just wanted to say what a brilliant idea this program is. My 5-year-old now corrects his peers' spelling (sometimes even mine!), so thanks for having it affordable so that a lot of children can benefit from it.” – Mum of five boys
“Thanks for [sending] Jaye's progress report. Jaye loves Reading Eggs and is responding so well. It's a truly clever program. His dad and I are really thrilled with what he's getting out of it. We printed off his first certificate for the Zoo Quiz and he was so proud of it. It's a great keepsake to mark his progress.” – Jess
“Just want to say this website is absolutely fantastic. I'm sure it won't be long until it is standard practice for every child in [the country] to learn to read this way! I have certainly been recommending it to all my friends with preschoolers. Thanks.” – Jo
“I've just purchased a 12 month subscription to Reading Eggs for my two children (3 and 7.) We've been doing the free trial for a week and I am very impressed with the program. They both absolutely love it and I am particularly amazed at how much my 3-year-old has learned in a week. I'm a primary school teacher and think the programis exceptionally well designed.” – Sue
“Thanks Reading Eggs, my son is making fantastic progress with your program. Best money spent ever!” – S. Brown
“Both of my boys take great pleasure in the Reading Eggs program. I take great pleasure in seeing them take great pleasure. It is an educational experience which not only enhances their reading skills but their computer skills also. Thank you. I am greatly impressed.” – Vanessa
“I am amazed and how much my 3-year-old is learning with Reading Eggs! He can identify all of his letters and knows their sounds. At the rate he's learning, he'll be reading by Kindergarten. He LOVES to play it and views it as fun, not work. He had never used a computer before trying Reading Eggs, but it's presented in a way that is intuitive for him, as he can work his way through it on his own. He was even using the mouse like a pro after the first day!” – R. Martz
“This has been so great for my son in preschool who needed something visual and exciting for learning and remembering his letters. His teacher tested his alphabet today and told me he knew 15. Last time she tested he knew two. I am so pleased and he has only been using the program for three days!” – Maree
“I just want to thank you for such a wonderful program. I discovered Reading Eggs at the beginning of this year and started my daughter on it just before she commenced preschool. She loved it so much that she took one of the books in to school to read to her teacher. Her teacher was amazed. Over a very short period my daughter went from having no reading knowledge other than the alphabet and her name to reading at a Year 2 level. I have shared Reading Eggs with a lot of parents and will continue to do so. Thank you once again!” – Mel
“I'm loving Reading Eggs. I am a primary teacher and the mother of a 3-year-old. Two years ago I discovered your programand mentioned it to some parents who were working with their own children at home, but it wasn't until I started my son on it, about a month ago, that I discovered what a comprehensive and truly effective programit really is. My son is already reading CVC and some CCVC/CVCC words easily along with quite a number of sight words. Thank you.” – Gilliane
“[My daughter] recognises words, knows all her letters now, is more interested in reading books and loves going to the library now. [She] spends more time looking at the words in books and trying to read them instead of just flipping through looking at the pictures.” – Callum
“Just want to say a HUGE thank you for your fabulous Reading Eggs program. My daughter is 4 next month and it is simply amazing how quickly she is genuinely learning to read. It is great how easily Reading Eggs teaches children to read. It takes any stress out of the learning process by making it fun. We have just had our second child, and I cannot tell you how great Reading Eggs has been. While I feed the baby, our daughter navigates her way around the Reading Eggs site, completing lessons and (her favourite bit) hatching critters! Thanks again.” – Anna
“I would like to thank and applaud you for such an excellent program. My son (who will be 4 at the end of this month) already had an aptitude for reading and writing and could read and spell a few simple words before we started Reading Eggs. However, since starting [the program] in September this year, he can now read all of the books [in the Book Packs] and is VERY hungry for more.” – Sharon
“What a wonderful program! I decided to use the free trial as an opportunity to test whether my 3-year-old, was ready to learn to read … and oh yes she was! She completed Map 1 with a gold certificate before she turned 3-and-a-half, and I am amazed at how much she has become aware of words. A couple of days ago while driving home, she excitedly yelled out 'There's a “the”, Mummy, on that sign!' That was music to my ears! I now feel I am giving her quality time sitting with her while she completes her lessons (the housework can wait!). My 20-month-old also repeats everything she hears said on the program in the background, and I am sure she will also become addicted as much as we have when her time comes. Congratulations, and we look forward to a long commitment to your site!” – Vona
“Well done Reading Eggs! What a wonderful program. I have two daughters who have just turned 2 and 3 and they love Reading Eggs. Because of their ages they have trouble using the laptop, but they can still do the lessons with my help. They point to the screen and I click on the things for them. My partner and I can't believe how much they have learned in the past month. Thanks a million Reading Eggs!!” – Ricki
“Chloe is now confident to sound out letters and put them together to read the word. She is just so confident now … she loves this program.” – Dad
“Just a quick note to tell you how impressed I am with your program. My son is 4 years old in December and started Reading Eggs in August this year. He is doing really well and absolutely loves the program. We have recommended Reading Eggs to a number of family and friends. Thanks again.” – Nadine
“We have been loving using Reading Eggs for a while now with my two younger children, 3 and 5. My youngest has been using it since he was 2-and-a-half and asks for it every morning. I have nothing but praise for the site and rave about it to all our friends!! THANKS!” – Anne
“I subscribed for a free trial of Reading Eggs for my kids, and they absolutely LOVED it. Thank you for this program! It has helped IMMENSELY!” – Lanna C.
“My children are absolutely loving this program. Having used a number of online reading programs, I have to say that Reading Eggs is the most impressive by far. I will be sure to pass the word.” – Craig
“I just wanted to thank you for such a fantastic program. My kids love it! I have passed your website onto four friends already and their children seem to have the bug too. Thank you and well done on a fantastic program.” – Sarah, Adam and Sian
“My son LOVES Reading Eggs and is up to Lesson 15. Thanks!” – Lena
“Reading Eggs is incredible! My daughter can't get enough of the activities, she enjoys them so much. We had to turn the computer off because she was getting tired. In just THREE days she started reading the most basic of words. Thank you so much Reading Eggs.” – Arthur
“Again, thank you Reading Eggs team for a really successful program. We are just over the moon with how well [our son] is doing and how much he's enjoying learning! No pushing required.” – Jess
“Bailey could not read. He loved Sam the Ant and before my eyes he start telling me words and whole sentences. I couldn't believe it, it was great. Bailey was so proud of himself.” – Eliza
“This is the best teaching program there could be. Well done to the inventor, with admiration” – The Ducaj family.
“I just wanted to let you know how much my children are enjoying your program. I think it's excellent, interactive, fun and has some obviously well-researched activities and teaching principles in play. I am truly amazed at how quickly simple repetition, quirky characters, games, music and Sam the Ant have brought reading alive. Thank you. I have recommended it to all the people I know with children.” – Diana
“My youngest son has joined up to the Reading Eggs programand I am amazed at how quickly his reading has taken off. It is a fantastic program. Thank you again.” – Lisa
“We are really enjoying the Reading Eggs programand I'm sure Ella is progressing a lot faster [with her] learning than she would have without it. Thanks again for a great system.” – Anglea
“Just want to let the Reading Eggs Team know that it's the BEST reading program I have come across. I have gone through several but this is just fantastic. Cameron is totally addicted and just wants to spend all his time on Reading Eggs! THANKS!” – Dene
“Thank you so much for your wonderful program. My daughter is enjoying it so much that she is begging for more time to on the computer to continue with her Reading Eggs. It is music to my ears as I am passionate about reading and I couldn't be happier with her progress.” – Karol
“My son has just started using the Reading Eggs programand I think it is fantastic. He has learned an unbelievable amount in an incredibly short time and I am so happy with the program.” – Helen
“My son is really enjoying Reading Eggs. This morning he said “I don't watch TV anymore, I just do Reading Eggs!” Thanks for an excellent program.” – Rosy
“Big congratulations to all the team at Reading Eggs! You are providing an invaluable service and I hope to spread the word far and wide. Many, many thanks.” – Elissa
“A wonderful introduction to the written word and a positive experience using sounds and associated letters and words. We have to negotiate our time on the computer because Samantha would be on Reading Eggs all night if we let her. A terrific accompaniment to books and a different edge to enhancing fine motor co-ordination. The levels offer an element of competition with a well-appreciated certificate. We are not allowed to talk while she is 'hearing' the instructions. A great find. Well done! We would love to see a programlike this based around numbers (mathematics).” – Kerry
“We think the Reading Eggs programis absolutely fantastic. Just love the encouraging format of the lessons – it is so motivating to earn the critters at the end of each lesson and exciting to collect the eggs to buy games. We just love Reading Eggs!” – Pauline
“AMAZING! We continue to be surprised by how quickly and how enthusiastically all of our children are taking to reading, all thanks to Reading Eggs – we are telling everyone we know about it!!” – Fiona
“Reading Eggs was something that we used years ago with our older daughter. We had been using something different with our youngest and it was becoming stagnant. Reading Eggs has ignited her interest in reading and she has excelled quickly since we started our subscription. I am very pleased with the program; even my older son is enjoying using the older kids' version. The lessons are a good length, the prizes and games are fun, and the lessons have been engaging for the kids. I couldn't be happier with our Reading Eggs purchase.” – Tawnee H.
“Reading Eggs is fabulous. My kids want to do a lesson each night, they love it!! It has taught my youngest who has just turned 4 so much already. I think all schools should have Reading Eggs!!” – Natasha
“I just wanted to let you know how absolutely fantastic your programis. My son is 4 and was expressing anxiety and reluctance to attend school because he said the reading was “too hard”. We began him on Reading Eggs and the difference has been amazing. He is now so much more confident and happy about learning. His teacher has noticed a real difference in his reading. [He] is happy to sit down every day to do his lessons. He never expresses any reluctance or unwillingness and he has learned so much. I am constantly amazed at the inventiveness of the programand the way it keeps the child constantly engaged.” – Dr D. Joseph
“My 4-year-old loves Reading Eggs and ABC Mathseeds […] He asks to do it every day and it keeps him occupied while I tackle subjects with my older kids.” – Celena
“My 4-year-old loves to have his computer time with Reading Eggs. He cant wait for that time of the day to come. He has learned a lot and can read three-letter words, knows beginning sounds and rhyming words. I get reports after he takes the quizzes that tell me how he is progressing. I can reset the level if he need more practice on something before advancing also. I highly recommend this product.” – Gwen K.
“Both my kids have been registered (aged 6 and almost 4). Both kids loooove Reading Eggs. They have Book Pack 1 at home but they want to do it online too. We are completely addicted to our Reading Eggs and it is regularly used as a reward for being good.” – Rachael
“I absolutely love Reading Eggs. [My son] is only just 4 and he is doing so well with his reading. I never thought it possible to be honest! He loves it too. The first thing he says in the morning is 'Can we do Reading Eggs please?'” – Della
“I really want to thank Reading Eggs for such a fantastic program. My son, then 4, started Reading Eggs 12 months ago. Comparing to when he began, he could just recognise the alphabet and very simple words. Now he has just turned 5 and reads books very confidently! He really enjoyed the simple-to-use interface and was always keen to spend time doing Reading Eggs. He logged into Reading Eggs most days and after one year, had completed most of the lessons. Whether we sat with him and supervised or whether independently, we were amazed at how powerful the learning tools were. Reading Eggs very thoroughly took him through all the facets of the English language and gave him the confidence to become a really good reader. We wanted to drop you this note to express our appreciation for this programand to encourage other parents to take up this same opportunity. ” – Alistair
“[I] am on a free trial of Reading Eggs and I think it is brilliant. My 4-year-old son LOVES it and I shall certainly be purchasing a subscription in a few weeks' time! This is a great programand I shall be recommending it to friends.” – Rebecca
“Just wanted to tell you how pleased I am with the results I got from my child after signing up for a trial. I did not have to help her with anything at all. She just did it all by herself. She is so excited that she can read. She has started sounding out words and spelling it. She did so well that within a week, I bought [a subscription]. I have decided to let everyone I know with little ones about Reading Eggs and will buy friends with 4-year-olds Reading Eggs as gifts. That will be the best present a friend or family member could give to a child!! Thank you so much!!” – Saroj Sami
“My son is 4. I really didn't think he was old enough to start a phonics programbut I figured if it was fun and engaging for him it couldn't hurt. I didn't have very high expectations. He went from having no phonics knowledge to reading in about a month! Reading Eggs is so fun for him, he asks to do it nearly every day. He loves the egg reward system too; when he completes enough lessons he gets to go 'shopping' in the Store for game items. The songs are so catchy, my husband and myself wind up singing them too. I highly recommend this programto all my friends with young children. This is the best online programwe have found for phonics!” – J. Thornburg
“Olivia is 4 and this is what she has to say about Reading Eggs: 'Thank you for Reading Eggs. Thank you for the lovely games and thank you to Karen for getting it for me. I really like the stamping game with the boxes that have some letters right and some letters wrong it is so much fun.'” – Peta
“I just wanted to let you know that since using Reading Eggs, my son's reading at school has gone up three levels. He was having some trouble with new words but now shows confidence in sounding them out and giving it a go. My daughter is nearly 5 and will start preschool next year, and she also loves Reading Eggs.” – Bev
“My daughter has a short concentration span but would spend ages playing these games. Her ability to read has increased and her interest to try to learn to read has increased. She has always loved us reading to her but I have had difficulty in getting her to take an interest in reading – she loved Reading Eggs.” – Tania
“Has a passion for learning now. ALWAYS writing strands of letters ALL day. Was NEVER interested no matter what we tried BEFORE Reading Eggs. THANK YOU!!” – Brenda
“Thanks for the trial. We LOVE it. It's really well designed and my daughter is having fun and learning a ton.” – Ellen
“This programis CLEVER! My son, who had zero interest in sitting down to learn how to read, was excited to play the game. He loved the songs and watching to see what crazy creature would hatch from his eggs. The learning games are solid; they do all the things a great reading instructor would do but with excellent graphics. I have encouraged everyone I know who has a child learning to read to try it out, and I bought a second subscription for my daughter. My son now reads like a champ…and LIKES it. Thank you, Reading Eggs!” – Cynthia, Homeschooler
“Reading Eggs has tremendously helped my child progress in reading. It has been a great addition to our curriculum. My child finds the lessons engaging and I like the bright colours and updated graphics. I have looked at other reading programs but the graphics seemed washed, outdated and my child seems uninterested to complete the lessons.”– Talieeya Davis, Homeschooler
“My children love Reading Eggs. They enjoy learning to read and spell with the lessons. My son struggled with other phonics programs. But he loved Reading Eggs. Opening a new egg after each lesson kept him motivated to finish the program. My daughter loved the Skills Bank part of the program. She was glad Reading Eggs had a spelling section.” – L. Taylor
“My daughter is 4 years old and is learning to read. We purchased Reading Eggs to supplement her learning and have absolutely no regrets. At the beginning, the child takes a placement test, so they can begin at the correct level and not be bored or frustrated. I find this extremely helpful. Not only is Reading Eggs educational, but it is really fun. My child especially likes earning golden eggs as she completes tasks (these can be used to purchase items inside the game). The characters and songs are silly and fun, while the tasks are challenging and progressively more difficult. We have used several free and trial subscriptions to other phonics programs, but Reading Eggs has by far been our favourite. I would recommend it to any parent looking for a fun way to reinforce phonics lessons.” – Flora, Homeschooler
“We were in a book store and I couldn't help but let them know how well my son is reading thanks to the Reading Eggs program. I actually pulled out a book from one of the Book Packs and [he] stood in the trolley reading to the shop assistant. He was more than willing. It's so exciting to see my child so confidently read, especially after having another child with a reading disability […] I really just want other children to experience reading the way my 4-year-old son has. Also, my son's behaviour has improved incredibly since starting Reading Eggs. I struggled myself with reading at school and am so happy to see my son enjoy it. Thanks for such a wonderful program.” – Cathy
“My 4-year-old could not read at all and only knew some letters and sounds. After two weeks [on Reading Eggs] he was reading books of a standard that my older daughter read after two terms of Kindergarten!” – Wendy
“My preschooler LOVES Reading Eggs. She considers it a treat to get to play. She has made it through two levels so far and just keeps trucking. This is much more comprehensive and child-friendly than any other software or site we have used to date. I just wish this had been around when my older son was learning to read. I have recommended this programto several of my friends and plan to use it well into the future.” – Jacqueline Chappell
“Our speaking-delayed son is loving Reading Eggs and is adding lots of new words to his sight and spoken vocabulary daily. He has earned over 9000 eggs – that is a lot of lessons completed. He is confidently navigating around the map selecting lessons and the extra activities – all independently. I have recommended Reading Eggs to his preschool teacher and other parents.” – Brian
“[My son] is 4 and has been using Reading Eggs for a month or so now. He has progressed to Lesson 44 and loves the program. His reading ability has advanced very quickly and we are all very happy. We are always encouraging him and purchasing books in the real belief that the whole language approach to reading is the best. Your programincorporates this philosophy as well as the important basic phonics to encourage reading skills. This was the best [money] I have ever spent. Thank you. ” – Richard
“Cannot believe how quickly this program has helped my son gain confidence in building his reading skills. He now looks forward to learning sounds and is using them in all areas of his life to decode/read words. Super program, thanks.” – Catherine
“I have been using Reading Eggs with my 4-year-old boy for a month now. It is a fantastic programand has completely removed any anxiety about progress and motivation in his reading. He loves doing the lessons and his progress is significant. After Lesson 9 he read his first book and is able to tackle his school books. More important I have complete confidence that this is helping to equip him with the skills he needs to feel able to cope in school, despite being one of the youngest. Thank you so much. I would advise any one to invest in this program. It is money well spent!” – Joanne
“What a fantastic concept. Thank you so much for making learning to read so enjoyable for our 4-year-old. I imagine a lot of passion and energy has been put into Reading Eggs.” – Frances
“I am a director of a child care centre and also the mother of a 4-year-old. I have recommended this programto all the parents at my centre and my friends. I have a 4-year-old who is very competent on the computer and also loves reading. Reading Eggs has brought those two things together. It is so very age appropriate and I have not seen any software that even comes close to being as good (and I have seen many!). Well done, it is great!” – Mother/teacher
“My son who is 4 was not interested in sitting down with me to learn to read from books, although he loves to listen to me read. The computer-based programis the perfect avenue allowing us to spend one-on-one time together, and I can easily see what he understands and therefore give praise appropriately where it is due and encourage him where he stumbles. His keyboard skills have also increased and he asks daily to do his Reading Eggs!"” – Kerry
“My daughter is 4 and a half, and wanted to learn to read. She has only been doing Reading Eggs for less than a month, and yesterday she read the story at the end of lesson 16. She was actually sounding out the words and working out what they were. My husband couldn't believe it (and I was shocked too). Thank you so much – your programis amazing. We will be telling everyone about this great reading tool.” – Jane
“What a great way to learn and have fun at the same time! My daughter is 4 and loves Reading Eggs. She really enjoys seeing the eggs hatch into a new critter as a reward for completing each stage. Thank you all SO much, I will definitely recommend this to ALL of our friends!” – Nova
“Thanks Reading Eggs for a fantastic product. After completing the free trial my 4-year old was hooked. My only problem was getting him to repeat lessons […] until I purchased a Book Pack. Suddenly the [printed] map and interaction with stickers had him repeating lessons 1 to 10 with no problems. I have now had my son read me his two “special” books from Book Pack 1 at bedtime rather than me read to him. What a wonderful accomplishment.” – Filomena
“I stumbled across this and thought I'd give [it] a try with my 4-year-old. After her first five lessons, she started pointing out letters and their sounds in books and during conversation. After the ten lessons, she proudly read her book to her Kindergarten class. Since then, a number of parents have asked about Reading Eggs for their children; so impressed were they at how quickly she picked up sounds and words. It took just over a week! Thank you for such an easy-to-follow program, giving children success at all levels. She can't wait to start the [next few lessons] – all she wants to do is her “egg games” every day. Now she's started, we can't stop her!!” – Kristine
“Thanks Reading Eggs for a wonderful service. My daughter is in Kindergarten and has really struggled to get a grasp of reading and has not really enjoyed reading, although she LOVES stories. She has now finished 30 Reading Eggs lessons and has loved doing them. Yesterday her teacher said to me for the first time that her reading was 'great'. I can't tell you how happy that made me and I think you guys are certainly part of her progress. I have also started my 4-year-old son on Reading Eggs and he is starting to enjoy it too. I was amazed that he started to pick up the idea of sounds through your lessons. I have been talking to him for months about what sound words start with and he really hadn't grasped it, but on Reading Eggs, I think he has started to. With the help of your programI think he will be a lot more school-ready and have an easier transition to big school in a year's time than my daughter has had. Thanks again, you are really making a difference.” – Brenda
“Ever since my 4-year-old son has started 'playing' (as he thinks of it) on Reading Eggs, I can't believe how he has developed with his literacy skills. He is constantly spelling out words, reading simple things, writing lists of words and always asking “what spells this mum?” I am totally in awe watching a child learn to read and write and I truly believe that Reading Eggs has been a huge encouragement and instrument in his development. I think the website is one of the best I've seen…I want to play on it! It is so appealing with the colours, the critters, the games…I cannot speak highly enough of the package you have designed and am telling anyone who will listen about it. Thank you very much we love it! ” – The Ward Family
“My 4-year-old son has just started school and to know that he has skills that will help him advance in his class is amazing. I praise the creators of Reading Eggs for coming up with something that is enjoyable for kids, as well as educational. Well done to the Reading Eggs team.” – Delilah
“Our 4-year-old is thoroughly enjoying Reading Eggs. He has come a very long way in the past four weeks, from no reading skill at all to now having some sight word recognition [and] good letter/sound understanding. Overall, we're delighted with the program. The quality of the graphics and the content is very high, which obviously adds to the attraction for him. Thanks again.” – Michelle
“My 4-year-old loves Reading Eggs. I am an early childhood teacher with a lot of experience with early literacy, and I can honestly say that this is the best programthat I have ever come across for young children. Congratulations and thank you for this exciting new learning opportunity.” – Cathy
“What an 'egg-cellent' program. My daughter, who is 5 in May and due to start school, loves it and can't wait to do each lesson. Easy graphics, good pronunciation, a fantastic start to early reading. I will be purchasing the subscription. Well done!” – Linzi
“Just wanted to let you know that my 4-year-old has just completed Map 6. It's basically the only reading instruction he's had as he's still at preschool. That he's been able to teach himself so much really says something about the quality of your site – its both engaging and stimulating. He's loves it and is very proud.” – Jenny
“Thank you, my son is loving this site. He still has 12 months til he starts Kindergarten but he is already reading amazingly well thanks to your site.” – Monica
“I just wanted to comment on this great programthat has made a huge change with my son's ability to read. Riley is 4-and-a-half but was recently diagnosed with a severe receptive language disorder. I first saw this programadvertised on the ABC channel and I thought that this might help Riley. I am so surprised at the improvement of his understanding of letters and words already. Because of his disorder it has been hard to see how his development with reading and his understanding of letters and sounds are, but this has shown me how bright and capable he is. I'm so grateful. I encourage Riley to do a lesson or two a day and the results have been amazing. I have started to recommend this programto other mothers I know that have children with similar difficulties. Well done to the creators of the Reading Eggs programand thank you for making reading easier and enjoyable for my Riley.” – Candice
“What a great program. There are so many learning products around, but this one is solid gold. From a trial only, my 4-year-old basically taught himself to read. Of course we always read books together at home, but this program promoted his independent learning. It is so easy to use that preschoolers can run with it. He is now 5 years old and at school. He is a confident, independent learner who loves school. Thank you for making that transition such an easy one!” – Nikki
“I would like to express my thanks to you. My daughter Elise is only 4 and has made huge progress with your program. We both really like the look of Reading Eggs. You have made what can be difficult to learn into fun and games. She think it is a reward for her whereas in fact it is education, brilliant! She can navigate all by herself throughout your site. This is a great help for busy parents. I like to supervise her from a distance and leave her to concentrate on her task. Again, yhank you so much for playing such a big part in my daughter's literacy progress and her future. ” – Sarah
“[My son] is on Map 9 and has been learning a lot of words. He can now read books almost all by himself. He was also able to jump up to Kindergarten instead of staying in preschool. He loves Reading Eggs very much and plays on it all the time. We recommend it to everybody he sees. He even plays on it in the morning. Thanks a lot.” – Vivian
“I'm so impressed with Reading Eggs, it has really captured [my son's] imagination and he loves winning eggs to buy the games. It's such a good programon many levels because not only is [he] learning to read and recognise sounds, but he is also using mathematical skills to buy the games and work things out. Well done!” – Katie
“Finn is really enjoying Reading Eggs and asks to go on every day, its brilliant. Thank you.” – Jackie
“We bought the [Reading Eggs] flashcards and four Activities Books today; my son is very keen to get started on the books.” – Belinda
“My son is loving Reading Eggs. You seem to have the mix of exercises, repetition and motivation pretty well spot on.” – Denise
“Congrats on an excellent product that has my 4-year-old son totally addicted. He will play up to three hours at a time and in the morning he wakes up and asks if he can do Reading Eggs.” – Nicola
“My friends put me onto this site for my little girl. She starts school next year. I just wanted to write to say thank you. I have found something that she is enjoying doing and her reading skills are now coming along so quickly. I have recommended the program to a lot of friends and cannot believe how happy it is making my daughter collecting her golden eggs. She loves it and is learning. THANK YOU!” – Vanessa
“Thanks so very much to your talented production team for bringing us such a high quality learning program. Our 4-year-old loves using the program and has surprised us with his desire to keep going and learning. He really engages with all levels of the lessons and printed material. Love it – great stuff, such a surprise how quickly Adam has grasped some basic reading skills!” – Sophie
“Thank you for the wonderful website. We are very impressed at how well our boy has taken to reading since being on the system. We were initially part of the promotional offer, and got as much out of the offer as possible. Once the offer had finished we were very happy to renew and continue on!! Also, congratulations on the Best Website Prize – well deserved. ” – Aaron
“We have been using Reading Eggs for a couple of weeks now and my 5-year-old absolutely loves it! He has shown significant progress in such a short amount of time. We will definitely continue to use it!” – D. Zayas
“Thank you, thank you, thank you! This has been an amazing experience watching my 5-year-old really enjoy reading and having such fun. I fully intend to share your program with other parents! Thanks you so much.” – Anna Marie
“We have just started a free trial period using your program. WOW! My 5-year-old little girl is having so much fun, and learning at the same time. She is actually reading! Thank you so much for an amazing learning experience.” – Cath
“Reading Eggs was exactly what we needed to help "flip the switch" for my 5-year-old kindergartener when it came to reading. In just a few short months she's reading anything and everything she sees.” – Kashmir Campbell
“We have been using the Reading Eggs programfor a month now with our 5-year-old and she loves it. Her teacher has noticed the vast improvement in her sound skills.” – Suzanna
“[I] will be purchasing a subscription to Reading Eggs as my kids LOVE it and have to be dragged away from the computer for meals and baths. My 3-year-old is starting to read sentences and my 5-year-old is excited that the programcomplements his school work in Year 1.” – Lisa
“Thank you for such a wonderful, easy-to-use and helpful reading program. My son is 5 years old and loves Reading Eggs. He is very keen to participate and is encouraged tremendously by the reward eggs. He has begun Kindergarten and I was finding it difficult to get him to do his reading homework which concerned me. But now that we have begun Reading Eggs, he is learning more from the computer and is now happy to do his homework too. This is a fabulous programand all children should have a go!” – Sandra
“I would just like to express how impressed I am with this program. My daughter is in Kindergarten and has been using it for about a month. I am amazed at how interactive and educational it is, and how it encourages the child to want to learn. My 4-year-old son loves to sit by his sister whilst she is doing her lessons and he can't wait until he can do it too! Many thanks for such a fantastic program.” – Kathleen
“I really want to thank Reading Eggs for such a fantastic program. My son, then 4, started Reading Eggs 12 months ago. Comparing to when he began, he could just recognise the alphabet and very simple words. Now he has just turned 5 and reads books very confidently! He really enjoyed the simple-to-use interface and was always keen to spend time doing Reading Eggs. He logged into Reading Eggs most days and after one year, had completed most of the lessons. Whether we sat with him and supervised or whether independently, we were amazed at how powerful the learning tools were. Reading Eggs very thoroughly took him through all the facets of the English language and gave him the confidence to become a really good reader. We wanted to drop you this note to express our appreciation for this programand to encourage other parents to take up this same opportunity. ” – Alistair
“Hi! I just wanted to say thank you for this fabulous program. My 5-year-old came home from school one day and told me all about Reading Eggs. I had no idea what he was talking about, so I logged onto the computer and Googled it. This fabulous website popped up and we haven't been off it since! All my little boy wants to do is Reading Eggs. Every night when I walk in the door after work, he doesn't say “Hi Mum”, he says “Mum, can I do Reading Eggs!” Everything appeals to him, from the critters to the bright colours and interaction. I love it, he adores it, thank you.” – Sue
“We were recommended to try Reading Eggs by a friend and teacher, and I am pleased to report that the programhas exceeded our expectations. I had the usual flash cards and books and although it is not hard to capture young children's enthusiasm, it is hard to maintain it. Reading Eggs has proven an excellent home education tool. My 5-year-old preschooler is starting Kindergarten this year, and going through Reading Eggs has given her a great deal of computer confidence, as well as good reading foundations. My 1-year-old has sat beside her squealing with delight at all the animations and songs and trying to grab the mouse whenever he can. He doesn't have many words yet but 'eggs' is one of the few!” – Angela
“We have been loving using Reading Eggs for a while now with my two younger children, 3 and 5. My youngest has been using it since he was 2-and-a-half and asks for it every morning. I have nothing but praise for the site and rave about it to all our friends!! THANKS!” – Anne
“This has been great, [my daughter] is soooooooooo motivated. She is 5 […] and Reading Eggs is enhancing her skills so much. Receiving your report of her progress has made her so happy and proud. This is such a great resource. Thank you.” – Rosi
“My 5-year-old daughter has just started a trial of this program and I am already very impressed. I am an infant/primary school teacher and wary of programs that are too gimmicky, but I am very happy with this so far. Thanks.” – Diane
“I just wanted to let you know that since using Reading Eggs, my son's reading at school has gone up three levels. He was having some trouble with new words but now shows confidence in sounding them out and giving it a go. My daughter is nearly 5 and will start preschool next year, and she also loves Reading Eggs.” – Bev
“Reading Eggs is excellent and we were delighted that our daughter learned to read in less than six months and was way ahead of her peers in Kindergarten when assessed. We are always recommending it to other parents.” – Angela
“What a fantastic program! My 5-year-old son's letter recognition has excelled since using Reading Eggs and he loves collecting the eggs.” – Wendy
“I think Reading Eggs is fantastic. My 5-year-old loves it. I have recommended [it] to lots of people I know with kids the same age. I think about six kids at least have registered since I gave their parents the website. Everyone who I know who has used the programthinks it's great.” – Claudine
“I just wanted to say how fantastic your program is. My 5-year-old is about to start school and is eager to learn, which means he is currently driving me nuts. I put him on the site and he did not want to get off. I told his cousin (same age) about it and he loves it just as much. Thank you for the great effort that has been placed into making the program. Please feel free to make a maths one the same. ” – Naomi
“Reading Eggs has been a terrific addition to our homeschool. Each of my three kids aged 3, 5 and 7 beg me to let them play and I think that is how Reading Eggs really differs from the others; it is not a chore for them to be using it. After they complete their lessons, they are then allowed to play in the extra [learning areas] and games which gives them an incentive to finish the lessons well. They are learning their letters and the sounds they make to reading small words in as little as ten minutes a day. My two smallest are now able to recognise words in their own books that we read, and my 7-year-old has learned to read fluently solely from Reading Eggs. I have to put a limit on how much time they are allowed to be on Reading Eggs, or they will be on there all day. I will continue to use Reading Eggs for many years to come and cannot recommend it highly enough.” – Amanda B.
“My son has just completed his first certificate and reached the gold level on the first try without any assistance. He is in preschool and is 5 years old. He keeps complaining that school is too hard yet looks forward to coming home and doing his 'egg cracking'. Thank you so much, this has helped us no end. My 2-year-old also wants to start 'cracking eggs' and is looking over her brother's shoulder attempting words – what a great head start for school.” – Cellina
“I just want to say what a blessing Reading Eggs has been for my 5-year-old boy. He was becoming very resistant to sitting with me and doing our regular phonics program. It wasn't fun to him and with four other children to home-school it was difficult for me to spend a lot of time coming up with activities to keep his attention. He was starting to think that learning to read was a bad thing! Enter Reading Eggs! WOW, what an amazing program. He absolutely loves learning to read now. As an added benefit he now wants to use our regular phonics programto show me what he has learned in Reading Eggs. I really like that Reading Eggs makes repetition fun. I'm also pleased with how the programensures that concepts are understood and cemented before allowing the child to move on. As the person responsible for my child's education, knowing that my child is using Reading Eggs makes me confident that he is learning. Reading Eggs was able to accomplish in a few days what I had trouble teaching in twice that time. I will definitely be using Reading Eggs for this child for at least the next couple of years and I have a 2-year-old that I will be using it with for a long time too. I am so pleased with this programand have told everyone I know with age appropriate children about it. I don't recommend programs often but this is one that I will always encourage people to use. Thank you for a wonderful product!” – A. Oakes, Homeschooler
“My 5-year-old daughter loves this program. She has wanted to work on reading for some time, but hasn't really enjoyed other programs and at-home methods we have tried. In her first few days with Reading Eggs she made remarkable progress, and she “plays” it almost every day, mostly independently. She balances her time between the lessons, and using her rewards to customise her virtual house. The lessons use brief, arcade-style activities to reinforce the learning, and the child earns rewards for participation at every step. The rewards can be spent on in-game games or items for the child's avatar or cartoon house. The lessons seem to combine classic phonics with word recognition through repetition. It keeps her very engaged, and she asks for help when she feels challenged by a topic. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a raw beginner or an emerging reader.” – Mary H.
“We LOVE Reading Eggs! My son is 5 and had previously demonstrated only a little bit of interest in learning to read. He would get easily frustrated when we tried to read simple early reader books. Well, we gave Reading Eggs a try, and it has been a HUGE hit! He loves the games, he loves earning more eggs, he loves advancing to a new level – it's been great! It provides just the right amount of challenge for him; he is learning SO much and yet the frustration level is very low, which is perfect for my budding perfectionist. His father and I are quite honestly shocked and amazed at how FAST he is learning to read, and he is surprising us all the time recognising real words out and about in the real world. Not only that, but did I mention that my son LOVES to play? I've never once had to ask him to do it. Every time I remind him that it's there, he jumps on the opportunity. In fact, I often have to ask him to finish up, because he wants to keep playing and learning longer than I expect! In summary, we just LOVE the program, and I would recommend it highly to all my friends.” – Chessa
“My 5-year-old son loves Reading Eggs. He was completely resistant to learning to read and within a month after using Reading Eggs, he is reading words everywhere we go.” – Cindy, Homeschooler
“This programis great. My 5-year-old was struggling with learning to read at school. After a couple of weeks on Reading Eggs I can see her progress. With her school readers she was memorising the words, however with Reading Eggs she is actually learning letter-sound combinations and the experience is fun. Today she said to me, 'I want to use the computer every night before I go to bed. Learning is fun!' Two mornings ago we read four of your little [print] books in bed. It used to be a struggle to read one of her school readers. Thanks again.” – Nicole
“This is a very fantastic and educative program. My son is 5 years old and he is using Reading Eggs regularly, and doing very well. Keep up the good work and well done.” – Suitha
“Our son commenced Reading Eggs about 12 to 18 months prior to going to school. He is in a combined Kindergarten/Year 1 class. I am telling you this to let you know that our son is the top reader in his class of 26 children! We don't push him at all, HE pushes us as he WANTS to read ALL the time. Our son is intelligent, determined, and concentrates and focuses extremely well. However, we attribute his desire to read and his enjoyment of reading to Reading Eggs. One of our hopes for our children is a relatively smooth path through school, and Reading Eggs has at least started our son along that path. We sincerely thank you for devising such a programthat our son enjoyed so very much. It has made reading fun and motivated him to read more and more. Reading is such a wonderful gift, and it is so comforting to us that our son will be able to immerse himself in different worlds and experience the thrill of learning. We will certainly be starting our 3-year-old on the path to Reading Eggs very soon. We have informed the school about Reading Eggs […] and hope that they will introduce it into the school soon. We can't rave about this programenough – it truly is fantastic.” – Alex & Graham
“Just wanted to say how wonderful I think Reading Eggs is! I have two children, 5 and 7, who beg me to play on your programconstantly. With so much junk on the net its great to be able to avoid it all and send my kids to the computer knowing how much they can learn and play with Reading Eggs!” – Amy
“Great program, my son loves it. He is 5, and he is already familiar with his letters, so this is a great start for words and small sentences. I think he dreams of his eggs; he gets me up early to log in.” – Mohamed
“Hi This is great. My [5-year-old] son loves it.” – Dianne
“I'd like to tell you that my 5-year-old preschooler loves Reading Eggs, and thus so do I! You've set up an amazing learning resource – so well thought out, well presented, fun, engaging and I think it will prove to be successful in its aim to teach children to read.” – Ali
“My 5-year-old son has enjoyed the Reading Eggs programimmensely. I have been amazed at what he has picked up in such a short time. The programis amazing. Charlie has especially enjoyed the games and collecting the little critters. To all of the people who have been involved in making this program, congratulations – it really is a success.” – Donna
“I have been using the Reading Eggs programwith my 5-year-old son for a month now and it's FANTASTIC. I have just purchased the books, activity books and flashcards for my students that I work with as a special needs teacher in a primary school, who are struggling readers. They LOVE it too (boys!). Thanks for your help and thanks for an AWESOME programfor engaging, unenthusiastic and young readers!!!” – Erin
“My 5-year-old son loves Reading Eggs. I often have a hard time getting him to stop doing the lessons! He has 'bought' five games by collecting golden eggs and gotten three certificates of which he is very proud. All in all a brilliant program. Keep up the great work.” – Monica
“Hi, I have found this program excellent, I think Katy Pike (publisher) is a genius! My daughter is already reading independently after a short period on this program […] Thanks.” – Rebecca
“Thanks for this site. It is wonderful. My darling grandson just loves it. We have a lot of fun and his reading is markedly improved, of course. Again, thank you for this site.” – Katharine
“Your program is awesome, my son loves it and my younger son hangs off his back watching every step of the way. He can't wait til his turn comes. Keep up the fantastic work!” – Vicky
“Just a short note to let you know that we think your Reading Eggs programis terrific! Zac is only 5 and does everything totally on his own – it is so easy for him to navigate and he has a lot of fun doing the lessons. Thank you!” – Sue
“Thank you so much for this easy-to-use online learning tool. My twins started school this year and look forward to coming home and getting into their homework each day. We've just completed ten [lessons] and they are loving it. The constant encouragement is great. Well done Reading Eggs.” – Raecheal
“My 5-year-old son is about to start school next term with a reading ability that surpasses most of the kids in his Reception/Grade 1 class. He can sound out words phonetically, knows all his capital and small letters, letter sounds and basic word sounds, and has been practising readers at the first four levels. I have never sat with him and taught him to read, so I assume he has obtained most of these skills from Reading Eggs, plus whatever he has picked up from playing with his 6-year-old sister. I am now spreading the word to all other mums who may have internet access.” – Liz
“We wanted to share with you our delight over how successful the Reading Eggs programhas been for our daughter. Our daughter is 5 and has struggled with her speech development for the past two years. To our amazement, not only has Reading Eggs helped her to learn to read, but also to learn to speak through reading! As a parent, there is no greater joy than to be able to help your child when they have a learning difficulty, and there is nothing I enjoy more than sitting alongside my daughter while she steams through the lessons. Today she started at lesson 30 and ended at lesson 45 in one session! She was having so much fun, I wasn't sure she'd even stop. I also wanted to thank you for the great support we've had from the Reading Eggs team. Whenever we've needed some tech support, it is reassuring to know that any problem will be fixed within the day. When you've struggled as long as we have to make gains with our daughter's communication development, you certainly appreciate the team of professionals that help keep that momentum going. Every parent should know about and have their kids on Reading Eggs!” – Terry
“I just want to say thanks for creating such a brilliant learning tool. My 5-year-old absolutely loves playing and learning, and is reading confidently after only two weeks. I'm thrilled and am letting all my friends know about Reading Eggs. Thank you for making learning to read such a pleasure – for all of us.” – Emily
“My son is in Year 1 and his teacher and I have been worried that he has been slipping behind his classmates. He flips or twists letters and words as well as numbers. He was developing an “I can't” attitude to anything written. He didn't want to try. The first time I put on Reading Eggs he played it for three or four hours, only taking a break when told to and asking to be able to get back and continue. Each critter is a triumph. Each test is completed until it's a gold trophy. This system is magic. Many, many thanks.” – Alison
“A student in my son's class let the teacher know about Reading Eggs. Now the whole class is logged on, and I have logged on his 4-year-old twin brothers at home, so they feel like they are involved in “school”. Aside from the skills they are learning, it is something they can do completely on their own, though they learn also by observing and helping each other. The programis clear, you can repeat lessons, there is no time limit, and there are no penalties. The boys love it and we have already spread the word. Thank you Reading Eggs. ” – Tiina
“At first we thought that this is not suitable for our child. After we purchased it, my girl was so happy. She was online for hours playing and learning. Each day when she came home from school, she would go to the computer and switch it on and try to do by herself. There's a lot of improvement. The most important thing is, she can read! I have no regrets purchasing Reading Eggs. I will recommend them to my friends.” – Hayati
“Reading Eggs is real fun. My daughter loves playing. It's easy, fun and interactive. Thanks for all of you who put great effort into this.” – Valli
“Thank you so much. [We] have just tried Reading Eggs and my son is beside himself, he just loves it!” – Alison
“My son is just loving Reading Eggs. I love the fact that you have to accumulate the eggs in order to purchase games.” – Mary
“Oh my god! For anyone waiting for reading recovery at your local school like I have for the past two terms in a private school with a child with a language disorder – don't bother! Thankyou Reading Eggs, you are the happy ending to a distressed mother wanting help for her son to learn how to read!” – Josephine
“Thank you so much, we are loving Reading Eggs, and my daughter pleads with me every day to do it. Her love of books and the written word has gone to another level now, and the other day in preschool she received an honour certificate for showing an increased interest in words, reading and spelling. Which for us was also an indicator of how much she is loving this program. Normally with just me she would get frustrated, but with Reading Eggs she is so keen and enthusiastic about the reading, the songs, the critters, the collecting of eggs and many more aspects of your program. Well done and keep up the fantastic work with such an important program.” – Lana
“Great program. Within 10 days [my son] started reading after I was thinking of getting him to do one more year of reception. Now he definitely can continue to Year 1. Thanks.” – Mother
“I just would like to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH for this great and valuable [program]. My son is a much faster learner with Reading Eggs than [with] me. It really takes hours to teach him words, but with Reading Eggs he needs just 30 minutes to understand the words. He can write the words as well after finishing a lesson and most importantly, the words stay for ages in his brain. What a wonderful job! Once again from my deepest heart, I really want to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Keep up the good work.” – Widi
“Thank you for a wonderful program. My children love it! They can't get enough. I'm impressed with the report you just emailed me. Nice touch – especially helpful for homeschoolers. I will add it to my records. Thanks again.” – The Clarkes
“I just wanted to say thank you for creating such a wonderful program for children! My daughter has never been so enthusiastic before [with her] learning! Having just reached level 10 and getting 15/15 on her test she is so very proud! I simply could not believe how quickly, in the space of only a week, she has improved! Thank you once again, and we look forward to many more wonderful lessons!” – Claire
“[My daughter] continues to love Reading Eggs. I want to congratulate you on a fantastic product. The many different kinds of rewards you have built in to the product work so well.” – Margaret
"We have had a subscription to Reading Eggs for a few weeks now. I have four kids using it. My younger two are in Kindergarten and love it! They ask to do it every day. My older two are on second grade and they love it too. They like both the Reading Eggs and Mathseeds sections. I've seen an improvement in my kids' literacy skills with letter/sound recognition and ability to decode words. I use it as a tool among others for their reading instruction. It's something they can do independently (great for managing four kids) and I can track their progress. I also get email updates with progress reports and when they finish a section. This helps me know what they've learned and helps me to know where they are. I look forward to my older kids using the Reading Eggspress section soon.” – Jennifer K., Co-op Member
“ I'm loving it! The boys, five and seven find it easy to navigate! My five-year-old calls it "congratulations" because he hears it so often! I'm being asked if they can do their Reading Eggs! After an hour and a half to two hours I'm telling them they need to take a break! My favorite thing is the ability to go back! If I feel they are guessing their way through a level, we can go back! This program has saved my sanity! Both of the boys (my grandchildren that live with me full time) are special needs kids, the oldest had an IEP last year as he had a TBI when he was three, and the five-year-old has multiple issues. Teaching the boys at home has been a challenge especially with reading! ” – Charity LeRoy
“ My daughter is in kindergarten in a private school and started falling behind in her reading. She was really struggling. Her teacher and doctor wanted her evaluated for dyslexia, but most resources are either overwhelmed to the point of not being able to see her for 6 to12 months and the school district doesn’t want to address it until 2nd to 3rd grade. She has such a love of learning so I was devastated to think she was struggling and might start to dislike it. I started doing some research to see what I could do to help and came across an article that listed apps that could be helpful for kids with dyslexia. Reading Eggs was on that list, so I gave it a try. She played it all weekend long for hours, which normally I wouldn’t want her on her iPad for so long, but she was progressing, dramatically! You can’t believe the difference it made! It’s been two weeks and she went from not being able to put sounds together to reading short sentences now. I am so relieved and excited, and she loves the app. I am so grateful. I’m a single mom so it took a huge weight off my shoulders. Thank you for reaching out and please feel free to pass on my love for this app. ” – Tiffany
“Reading Eggs has helped my daughter tremendously! I knew she had the capability to read, even at a young age, but she had no motivation to actually want to learn how. I hired a private tutor to help her, but even after a semester of kindergarten, hardly any progress. Someone suggested Reading Eggs to me and to my surprise, within two weeks of using, she had doubled her sight word list and now loves reading everything (she's in 1st grade now). I completely recommend you try it for your child. It's fun, very interactive, and as a parent you can track their progress and print supplemental worksheets for the lessons. They are in a very complete reading system you'll love!” – Sarah Grey
“We have been using Reading Eggs and Mathseeds for about 2.5 years. My now 6-year-old enjoys it and finds it engaging. He was attending a Kindergarten in a foreign language that did plenty to prime the pump for learning via hands-on activities, so Reading Eggs and Mathseeds was an adjunct. Along with reading to him and looking for a few high-frequency words in books, Reading Eggs has given him confidence and fun on his beginning journey toward reading. Mathseeds has done the same for him in maths. We are pleased with his progress thus far and look forward to his continuing growth. When the subscription renewal came last month, renewing was an easy choice.” – Catherine B.
“We have had wonderful experiences using Reading Eggs. Our 6-year-old didn't really care to do any reading, but the ways in which things were taught turned things on for her. [I] can't wait to continue. We use it in our curriculum each day and it has become an important part of our program.” – Sharon T., Homeschooler
“Reading Eggs has been tremendous in helping my son not only learn his letters but jump start the reading process. After a failed first year of Kindergarten, this has really been a blessing to us. I have been amazed at the progress he continues to make with this program.” – Marsha
“Thank you so much! I love having an Australian learning programto help teach my children. Reading Eggs rivals anything I have seen on the internet. It is well thought out and of excellent quality. My 6-year-old son is having trouble keeping up with his class and has a low working memory index, the repetition in Reading Eggs is helping my son commit reading skills to his long term memory and he loves it. He even said in his sleep the other night “I love Sam” (character in Reading Eggs). So thank you again very much, I am grateful, please keep up the good work.” – Emma K
“My 6-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter love Reading Eggs and Reading Eggspress. I love that they're getting a variety of language arts activities (similes, main idea, spelling, etc.), and that they can spend “healthy” time on the computer. I have and will continue to recommend Reading Eggs to my friends.” – Mickelle, Homeschooler
“The best money I have ever spent is on Reading Eggs. I mean it. All last year I dragged my child to specialists and speech therapists and tried all sorts of time consuming, exhausting methods of teaching him letters. He started school knowing four capital letters and did not want to try in class because he had no confidence. ONE TERM of Reading Eggs has taught him all the letters and how to read. The other day a mother helping with reading commented on how well he sounds words out, much better than the other kids, something I would not have imagined possible previously. He now puts his hand up in class and is so proud every time he gets a certificate for passing a quiz. His teacher says he is a much happier child. Best of all, I get to sit back and relax while he practically teaches himself! I cannot thank you enough for a wonderful programthat has done so much more than teach my little boy to read.” – Susie L
“My Year 1 son truly enjoys his time on Reading Eggs. It has helped him in particular with sight words, word families, fluency, and confidence. He loves to hatch his new characters and collect the golden eggs. The beginning evaluation accurately placed him at the correct level, allowing him to be successful and challenged.” – Anne S.
“Reading Eggs is great for my preschool-aged child who is just learning to read, and for my 6-year-old fluent reader. My younger child is engaged by the lessons and also motivated by the games and rewards. A surprise benefit is that his computer and keyboard skills are improving. My 6-year-old uses Reading Eggs for her spelling and basic grammar. She is working on her sequencing and creative writing skills by composing stories in Reading Eggs. Even the games develop reading, maths and logic skills. I really see this as a programwe can use from preschool through Year 3 with academic benefit.” – Jennifer Ware
“Reading Eggs is simply amazing […] My kids simply loved it. Within two months my son is reading fluently (just started Year 2), and the younger one, who is in Kindergarten, is reading three- to four-letter words already.” – Umm Bilal
“My son has severe dyspraxia involving verbal, fine and gross motor skills. Since starting school he has lost all confidence in learning literacy, and avoids any literacy activities like the plague. Not so with Reading Eggs. It has given him much more than reading abilities. I can't keep him off or get him to stop working on Reading Eggs.” – Jody
“My son is struggling with reading in his first year at school, so he is really enjoying [Reading Eggs] and it seems to give him more pride and confidence – he thinks it's great fun. He said, “I love Reading Eggs Mum”. And that was music to my ears, so THANK YOU!” – Sharon
“As a busy mum of a child who is struggling to get a handle on the strange world of written English, Reading Eggs is an absolute godsend and I am truly grateful to you guys for putting so much thought into creating this fantastic program. The songs make us all laugh. I have two older boys who I can't keep away from the computer when my first grader is on it so I am going to join them up as well! Keep doing what you are doing, you must enjoy it because it really shows.” – Mel
“We LOVE Reading Eggs! My child is reading so much better. Your programhas also helped her confidence greatly!” – Jessica R.
“I find that Reading Eggs is a great backup for my 6-year-old in Year 1; we do school through distance education, so I am the teacher, and find this programa great backup to what we are doing in English. It is a constructive programwhere she feels that she is playing and learning, and I have noticed a good improvement in her ability to hear letter sounds in words. Thanks for the work you put into this program.” – Wendy
“Hi, this has been a great discovery for all the children in our family! We have 6-year old twins who have improved so much within the two week trial and they love it. We also have a 3-year-old who is eager to get started. Once again, thanks for all your hard work, the program is truly wonderful.” – Marion
“I just wanted to say a big thank you. My son has been struggling with his reading. He is in Year 1 and nothing seems to hold his interest. By chance we came across your website last night and he couldn't have been more engrossed, [I] had trouble getting him away from the computer. First thing this morning he was ready to go back on the program again. Thank you, thank you, thank you.” – Emily
“Both my kids have been registered (aged 6 and almost 4). Both kids loooove Reading Eggs. They have Book Pack 1 at home but they want to do it online too. We are completely addicted to our Reading Eggs and it is regularly used as a reward for being good.” – Rachael
“My daughter is 6 and in Year 1 at school. She didn't 'get' reading and I was beginning to really worry that we might have a problem. We have tried all manner of books, charts and extra help, but the progress was painfully slow, almost to the point of non-existence. A friend mentioned Reading Eggs in passing [and] in a matter of weeks she is flying along like never before. She absolutely LOVES Reading Eggs (as do her siblings) and asks to go on the computer morning, noon and night to do it. It's such a lovely, colourful, fun, funny, and educational site, and the reward system of levels, eggs, certificates and games are so well thought out. I just wanted to say hurray and thank you. ” – Sanchia
“Thank you to Reading Eggs – I had a 6-year-old boy who really battled with reading, and even opening a book was a challenge. Now both my 6-year-old and almost 4-year-old fight over who gets to do Reading Eggs each afternoon. They love it. All of it. It is a well thought out, interactive, fast-paced programwhich my kids love. Thank you!!”– Racheal
“Thanks Reading Eggs for a wonderful service. My daughter is in Kindergarten and has really struggled to get a grasp of reading and has not really enjoyed reading, although she LOVES stories. She has now finished 30 Reading Eggs lessons and has loved doing them. Yesterday her teacher said to me for the first time that her reading was 'great'. I can't tell you how happy that made me and I think you guys are certainly part of her progress. I have also started my 4-year-old son on Reading Eggs and he is starting to enjoy it too. I was amazed that he started to pick up the idea of sounds through your lessons. I have been talking to him for months about what sound words start with and he really hadn't grasped it, but on Reading Eggs, I think he has started to. With the help of your programI think he will be a lot more school-ready and have an easier transition to big school in a year's time than my daughter has had. Thanks again, you are really making a difference.” – Brenda
“I am in awe of this program. [My daughter] had begun doing her sounds, consonants and joining words in pre-primary. At her new school they do not do this until Year 1, which will be next year, and I was worried she would forget what she had learned. Reading is such a huge component of our family life that I did not want her to lose interest or motivation to learn to read. She is loving Reading Eggs and humbugs me constantly to do it. I sit with her while she does the lessons, but do not tell her what to do and let her make mistakes so that she learns from them. I am amazed at how quickly she picks things up and remembers what she has learned. Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a wonderful and fun way to learn.” – Kim
“Thanks for this wonderful website. Our 6-year-old son missed [two months of school] this year […] We were assured it would be easy for him to catch up, but it proved to be a real mission. We were even told he would not be passing and would be kept back […] I wasn't keen for that and was very worried about his confidence. Several parents at school mentioned Reading Eggs. So I checked it out. It looked fun so I signed up for the free trial. He has been doing it for less than a week and his reading and phonics have improved so much in only a few days – it is nothing short of a miracle. Until now I didn't know of any websites that could offer fun, advertising-free activities for learning. He is loving it, and to my surprise, he loves the games but much prefers the phonics and reading activities. The songs at the end of each lesson are funny and entertaining and we gather around to sing along and have a laugh. Congratulations to those behind the creation of this site – you've hit the jackpot […] Thank you so much.” – Nicole & Luca
“Thank you sooooo much! I'd just like to take this opportunity to say Reading Eggs and ABC Mathseeds are awesome! My boys both have a host of medical conditions and as such, my older son's attendance at school is poor. However, as a teacher I know he's not failing academically as he should be but rather thriving academically instead and I apportion a large part of this success to your program.” – Desiree
“My daughter has anxiety and thinks she can't read, even though she can when she forgets that she 'can't'. Reading Eggs is so fun that she forgets she 'can't' and is really strengthening her skills.” – Katie Newton
“I am beyond pleased and impressed with Reading Eggs. My daughter had absolutely no interest in reading. It frustrated her even trying to learn letter sounds. One week with the free trial and she's already starting to read. Phenomenal program. Will be subscribing at the end of the trial period. Definitely.” – Jessica Durant
“My child LOVES Reading Eggs! This programhas been exactly what I've been looking for. We tried two other popular reading programs and while they were fun, just didn't translate to my child becoming a reader. He's a reluctant reader, capable but frustrates easily. With Reading Eggs I have never witnessed an ounce of frustration, just watched my son having fun. And even better – I've watched him start to read in such a natural progression that is a beautiful thing to watch. Thank you, Reading Eggs!” – C. Bryant
“I am so thrilled to have found this program. My son thoroughly enjoys it. I can see a huge improvement in his reading. Thank you.” – Neena
“[My son] often does the lessons with his younger brother, and I often hear them having a good laugh at various times when they are doing the lessons. I would like to pass on my thanks to all involved in the development of this product, I know it has made learning to read online a lot of fun!” – Julie
“Reading Eggs is great for my son. He is a reluctant reader and has resisted every other product we have tried. He uses this one regularly without too many complaints. It's really working for him.” – Steven
“This is excellent. Given the choice my son would choose Reading Eggs over Mario Cart. Take that as a big compliment. Thanks and keep up the great work.” – Chris
“Our son was introduced to Reading Eggs through his school. He has always been a boy who loves to spend hours poring over comic books and other books that interest him. Since beginning Reading Eggs, this passion has only increased, and his confidence and eagerness to read (and do the lessons), has grown even more. Thank you for producing such a fun, bright, clever, educational and colourful resource. It's something we love to do together, and we look forward to the weeks and months ahead (and to introducing our younger son to it too).” – Kerry
“[I] wanted to let you know that I am a home schooling parent and I absolutely love your program. My son has advanced so much in his reading in the last few weeks since we have started using Reading Eggs and he absolutely loves it! Thank you for your great program.” – Sharee
“We're thrilled with Reading Eggs. Before this, our son's progress was slow because I found it hard to find time to sit down with him to do reading homework. I have younger children too and so by the time dinner and bath time was out of the way, he was too tired to concentrate. But with Reading Eggs, he can work through this material without much assistance from me. He loves it and his progress has accelerated dramatically. I was having dinner with some other mums of children from his class last weekend and they all agreed that it is great. Thank you so much!” – Elisabeth
“Thanks for having a program that complements school. My son is having a great time revising a lot of words he knows and practising the ones he has had some trouble with! Well-paced, it's exciting to do the test at the end of each level. Thanks.” – Camilla
“Thank you for this wonderful program. You have made our lives as parents so much easier and more enjoyable spending time with the children on their homework. ” – Charlotte
“Reading Eggs is simply amazing […] My kids simply loved it. Within two months my son is reading fluently (just started Year 2), and the younger one, who is in Kindergarten, is reading three- to four-letter words already.” – Umm Bilal
“I just wanted to thank you for such a great product. My daughter has just got her reading test results from school. She is at the reading age of 9. She's not even 8 yet. I strongly believe that it has to do with the fact that she started Reading Eggs.” – Jenni M.
“Just wanted to say how wonderful I think Reading Eggs is! I have two children, 5 and 7, who beg me to play on your programconstantly. With so much junk on the net its great to be able to avoid it all and send my kids to the computer knowing how much they can learn and play with Reading Eggs!” – Amy
“My 7-year-old son has learning challenges in the area of reading and resists reading. He took to Reading Eggs immediately and has never complained about doing the program. He loves the variety of activities and especially earning the characters. He is making good progress with his skills. Today we sat down to read a new book and I was having him read all the words that didn't overwhelm him in length. He protested that this was a Level 2 reader and was very pleased when I told him that he is now reading at that level. I am very pleased with this programand it is very affordable.” – Becky M.
“I've just purchased a 12 month subscription to Reading Eggs for my two children (3 and 7.) We've been doing the free trial for a week and I am very impressed with the program. They both absolutely love it and I am particularly amazed at how much my 3-year-old has learned in a week. I'm a primary school teacher and think the programis exceptionally well designed.” – Sue
“Reading Eggs has been the best purchase for our homeschool this year. Our 8-year-old dyslexic son loves and learns from this visually exciting program. It has helped his reading and also his writing as he has started his own 'Reading Eggs' story book! He draws his own map, creates characters for each level and writes a story for each one. Amazing!” – Edyth N.
“Thank you Reading Eggs for a brilliant program. My son is 9 years old with the reading ability of a 5-year-old. I have purchased the Book Packs and the Activity Books and he is coming on well. He loves the programto the extent that he spends hours on it. Thank you for a wonderful program.” – Michelle
“My son has autism and I actually never thought he would be able to read...he is now 11 and has in the last 18 months begun to learn...all because of his love for Reading Eggs. So thanks!” – Annette
“I would just like to say a big thank you to Reading Eggs. What a wonderful learning tool this is. My daughter is 10 years old and has Down Syndrome. She has not been given any opportunity to learn to read and write at her school which is so disappointing and heart-breaking as she desperately wants to learn and be like her brother and sister. She started using Reading Eggs over the weekend and I am astounded at how quickly she is picking up simple words and sentences. She is so eager to get on and 'play' the wonderful and engaging games. I can't thank you enough, I wish I found you earlier. I know that she will be reading and writing in no time using this site. She is so pleased with herself and what she has achieved so far. Thanks again.” – Kerstin
“My son has high-functioning autism spectrum disorder and adores computers, therefore he is committed to your programand absorbs the content. My son's ability to learn how to read is enhanced by his condition, and Reading Eggs provides him with the tools he needs to achieve this. My son has a language and communication impairment and Reading Eggs has also enhanced his speech and communication!! He laughs at the animations and finds the lessons enjoyable and fun.” – Linda
“We have had a subscription to Reading Eggs for a few weeks now. I have four kids using it. My younger two are in Kindergarten and love it! They ask to do it every day. My older two are on second grade and they love it too. They like both the Reading Eggs and Mathseeds sections. I've seen an improvement in my kids' literacy skills with letter/sound recognition and ability to decode words. I use it as a tool among others for their reading instruction. It's something they can do independently (great for managing four kids) and I can track their progress. I also get email updates with progress reports and when they finish a section. This helps me know what they've learned and helps me to know where they are. I look forward to my older kids using the Reading Eggspress section soon.” – Jennifer K., Co-op Member
“I am a home-schooling mother of two boys. I just wanted to thank you and all the Reading Eggs staff! Y'all have created an AMAZING tool to use in encouraging and strengthening my child's reading skills. My Bryson is 8 years old and really struggles with learning to read and enjoying reading at all. We have tried SEVERAL reading programs and curriculums, but nothing seemed to spark any interest. He is a very intelligent child, but bores easily. Reading Eggs has been able to hold his attention and get him excited about our school day. He actually went to bed last night saying he couldn't wait to do school tomorrow! I am so pleased with his response to this website! Thank you so much! You have helped this mama more than you will ever know! God bless you all!” – Kelly M
“My son has been using Reading Eggs for more than a year now, and he loves the reward system (golden eggs). My favourite part of the program is the initial assessment test that generated his reading age based on the results. Since I'm a homeschooling mum, I love when I can track his progress. I shared the app with another homeschooling mum, and she said after a few weeks her daughter was reading. We love this app and will continue using it.” – Mrs Gregory
“My 7-year-old is being homeschooled this year. He loves studying! This program he uses as his reward for finishing schoolwork. He totally loves it! It's not just fun but it's really educational. My 10-year-old daughter goes to school and is using Reading Eggs to help with reading. She's dyslexic and she said (and her reading teacher agreed) that it really helps her. I love seeing kids enjoying learning. My son also loves reading but maths, not so. Our program has Mathseeds and it seems like he really enjoys it.” – Anna
“All my children (oldest right now is 11 and youngest is 4) have used Reading Eggs and Mathseeds as their first homeschooling curriculum. It captures their attention and brings the information to them at their level. I love the follow-up worksheets that are in the bonus section of the family dashboard and the breakdown explanations for each lesson number.” – Shelly A.
“I want to thank you for developing this app. My son is in Prep and is currently having difficulty reading. He loves the app and already got through one [Fast Phonics] Peak today and he was making amazing progress with his reading. He also has autism (high-functioning) so learning in this way really works for him. Visual, step by step, no need to communicate etc. As a mother (and a teacher), thank you from the bottom of my heart. This will also be the most wonderful way to assist my son with developing his reading through this next six-week lockdown, as I imagine we will be going into remote learning from home again.” – Kristina
“I just wanted to compliment the Reading Eggs team on an excellent educational platform! Our son is 4 and with the current global crisis has been unable to go to Kindy. I’ve experienced a range of emotions but mostly guilt because I feel he is missing out on the early foundations of education. Since using the app (started in early April) he is reading at an estimated 5.25 year old level. He absolutely loves Reading Eggs, it is something we can do together or on his own. Along with his vocabulary, his confidence has improved and speech is more articulated. He is stimulated and eager to learn so he can earn his “critters” and certificates. He sounds out words in books and has passed all of the quizzes with a 100% score. Thank you for creating such a fantastic app for our kids. Particularly during this challenging time, I can rest assured he is steadily progressing and preparing for school next year.” – Elise & Blake
“In these difficult times, needing to homeschool my child in NSW, I just wanted to say thank you. We've been subscribed to Reading Eggs for years and as such, it's been nice to approach homeschooling with confidence. I initially searched far and wide for homeschooling resources but nothing else compares. I rely more on the Reading Eggs and Mathseeds than I do the work sent home from school to keep my child learning. Not only is it an optimal and exceptional program for education, it motivates my child to complete his work from school so he can get onto Reading Eggs and Mathseeds app. He loves it and so do I. He follows these lessons everyday with the corresponding activity sheets available…Thank you for making this program a high-quality platform for learning. Thank you for making it affordable month by month. And thank you for making it enticing and entertaining to children. You couldn't have done better.” – Catherine
“After using ABC Mouse for several years I saw parents commenting online about how much they liked Reading Eggs. So we tried the 14 day free trial and my son loved it. I saw how it was helping my son with reading and also how much he loved the story generator and decided to sign up for a year. He still continues to want to use it and we're several months in.” – Monica Miller
“Reading Eggs was exactly what we needed to help "flip the switch" for my 5-year-old kindergartener when it came to reading. In just a few short months she's reading anything and everything she sees.” – Kashmir Campbell
“Reading Eggs and Mathseeds have been a blessing to my family. I have seen a tremendous jump in my 4K daughter's reading ability. She begs to be on it, even outside of school time (I am a homeschooler).” – R. Larson
“We have had a subscription to Reading Eggs for a few weeks now. I have four kids using it. My younger two are [in] kindergarten and love it! They ask to do it every day. My older two are [in] second grade and they love it too. They like both the Reading Eggs and Mathseeds sections. I've seen an improvement in my [younger] kids' literacy skills with letter-sound recognition and [their] ability to decode words. I use it as a tool among others for their reading instruction. It's something they can do independently (great for managing four kids) and I can track their progress. I also get email updates with progress reports when they finish a section. This helps me know what they've learned and helps me to know where they are. I look forward to my older kids using the Reading Eggspress section soon. I have told others about this program as well as the Homeschool Buyers Co-op to pass along the savings and the great programs for learning. ” – Jennifer K, Homeschooler
“My 6-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter love Reading Eggs and Reading Eggspress. I love that they're getting a variety of language arts activities (similes, main idea, spelling, etc.), and that they can spend “healthy” time on the computer. I have and will continue to recommend Reading Eggs to my friends.” – Mickelle, Homeschooler
I am a home-schooling mother of two boys. I just wanted to thank you and all the Reading Eggs staff!

“My girls love Reading Eggs! They are eager to go to their map and crack their egg to see what hatches. I love the variety of lessons it offers.” – Mom of four girls, Homeschooler
“Reading Eggs has been a terrific addition to our homeschool. Each of my three kids aged 3, 5 and 7 beg me to let them play and I think that is how Reading Eggs really differs from the others; it is not a chore for them to be using it. After they complete their lessons, they are then allowed to play in the extra [learning areas] and games which gives them an incentive to finish the lessons well. They are learning their letters and the sounds they make to reading small words in as little as ten minutes a day. My two smallest are now able to recognise words in their own books that we read, and my 7-year-old has learned to read fluently solely from Reading Eggs. I have to put a limit on how much time they are allowed to be on Reading Eggs, or they will be on there all day. I will continue to use Reading Eggs for many years to come and cannot recommend it highly enough.” – Amanda B.
“This program is CLEVER! My son, who had zero interest in sitting down to learn how to read, was excited to play the game. He loved the songs and watching to see what crazy creature would hatch from his eggs. The learning games are solid; they do all the things a great reading instructor would do but with excellent graphics. I have encouraged everyone I know who has a child learning to read to try it out, and I bought a second subscription for my daughter. My son now reads like a champ…and LIKES it. Thank you, Reading Eggs!” – Cynthia, Homeschooler
“Reading Eggs has tremendously helped my child progress in reading. It has been a great addition to our curriculum. My child finds the lessons engaging and I like the bright colours and updated graphics. I have looked at other reading programs but the graphics seemed washed, outdated and my child seems uninterested to complete the lessons.” – Talieeya Davis, Homeschooler
“My daughter is 4 years old and is learning to read. We purchased Reading Eggs to supplement her learning and have absolutely no regrets. At the beginning, the child takes a placement test, so they can begin at the correct level and not be bored or frustrated. I find this extremely helpful. Not only is Reading Eggs educational, but it is really fun. My child especially likes earning golden eggs as she completes tasks (these can be used to purchase items inside the game). The characters and songs are silly and fun, while the tasks are challenging and progressively more difficult. We have used several free and trial subscriptions to other phonics programs, but Reading Eggs has by far been our favourite. I would recommend it to any parent looking for a fun way to reinforce phonics lessons.” – Flora, Homeschooler
“I just want to say what a blessing Reading Eggs has been for my 5-year-old boy. He was becoming very resistant to sitting with me and doing our regular phonics program. It wasn't fun to him and with four other children to home-school it was difficult for me to spend a lot of time coming up with activities to keep his attention. He was starting to think that learning to read was a bad thing! Enter Reading Eggs! WOW, what an amazing program. He absolutely loves learning to read now. As an added benefit he now wants to use our regular phonics program to show me what he has learned in Reading Eggs. I really like that Reading Eggs makes repetition fun. I'm also pleased with how the program ensures that concepts are understood and cemented before allowing the child to move on. As the person responsible for my child's education, knowing that my child is using Reading Eggs makes me confident that he is learning. Reading Eggs was able to accomplish in a few days what I had trouble teaching in twice that time. I will definitely be using Reading Eggs for this child for at least the next couple of years and I have a 2-year-old that I will be using it with for a long time too. I am so pleased with this program and have told everyone I know with age appropriate children about it. I don't recommend programs often but this is one that I will always encourage people to use. Thank you for a wonderful product!” – A. Oakes, Homeschooler
“My 5-year-old son loves Reading Eggs. He was completely resistant to learning to read and within a month after using Reading Eggs, he is reading words everywhere we go.” – Cindy, Homeschooler
“Thank you for a wonderful program. My children love it! They can't get enough. I'm impressed with the report you just emailed me. Nice touch – especially helpful for homeschooler. I will add it to my records. Thanks again.” – The Clarkes
“We have had wonderful experiences using Reading Eggs. Our 6-year-old didn't really care to do any reading, but the ways in which things were taught turned things on for her. [I] can't wait to continue. We use it in our curriculum each day and it has become an important part of our program.” – Sharon T., Homeschooler
“Reading Eggs has been the best purchase for our homeschool this year. Our 8-year-old dyslexic son loves and learns from this visually exciting program.

“The price is incredible for the amount of content that you get and is honestly the best homeschool investment I have ever made.” – Schelly
“My home-schooled kids love to do the lessons, and for the first time I feel like my second grader is finally making progress in phonics.” – Vanessa
“We have had a subscription to Reading Eggs for a few weeks now. I have four kids using it. My younger two are in Reception and love it! They ask to do it every day.

“I signed up to Reading Eggs during the first lockdown and cannot believe the progress my 5‑year‑old son has made with both his literacy and maths skills. I was sceptical at first but he's now working though lessons independently and confidently. It's a great tool for getting ready for school or assisting while remote learning! Highly recommend it!” – Anonymous
“Being a grandmother from a rural community with no kindergarten in the vicinity I thought that Reading Eggs would be a valuable tool in helping my grandson learn his phonics. With him being just 4 years old and a left hander, it was a little difficult to get him to use the mouse but he is slowly getting used to it and is now really enjoying the experience. When he becomes tired or is having trouble with the mouse I just get him to point to the correct answers on the screen and I can press the button. It is really good how you can go back to redo the lessons when you have to, and I have found that we have not progressed very far, but my grandson is starting to remember a lot more of what we have had to go over. I guess it really is 'practice makes perfect'.” – Anne
“We have enjoyed using Reading Eggs and would highly recommend it for any young learner. We used it while homeschooling our granddaughter and unfortunately didn't use it to capacity as she does not live here. Thanks for the great learning experience.” – Margaret
“My son loves this app and it was tremendously helpful during our period of homeschooling. Fantastic resource.” – Melanie
“A great service, especially so during these homeschooling days, but regardless of this, it has been a great support. Engaging and interactive. My 4.5‑year‑old son loves it!” – Claire
“I de‑registered my son from primary school due to his anxiety issues and him [being] behind [in] his year. We started the Reading Eggs program and it suits his needs so well. It's engaging and colourful. We have his certificates he's earned all over the wall. It's helped grow his confidence and he is now further on in his reading etc. We love it!” – Tracey
“I strongly feel the best educational experience at home is Reading Eggs. It assists [in] very early development, giving [them] the confidence [they] require as they progress in school. The animation and fun doesn't make the child over excited but still keeps them interested and excited to progress. I honestly think it's very good value for money [compared to] other [programs] on the market.” – Malathi
“I've been really impressed with Reading Eggs. My 6‑year‑old son is a very reluctant reader and I really struggled to get him to read or engage with homeschooling during lockdown. However he loves Reading Eggs! He really wants to spend time doing the activities and lessons and asks to read the books to me. He gets very excited when he wins an egg or moves to a new map. Highly recommend!” – Cressida
“Good site to help my daughter with homeschooling. Although I'm not sure & it hasn't been confirmed to me by the school, I think she may be dyslexic. So, I easily set her at lower levels to build her confidence up. Easy site to use & I can keep track of her progress.” – Mandy
“I found the Reading Eggs program invaluable while teaching my granddaughter (aged 4, nearly 5) to read during the school closure. It is fun, but makes the child work too, and the animation is not over[ly] fussy as so many others are. She really looked forward to using it.” – Susanna M.
“Reading Eggs has been wonderful when homeschooling. I have two children, and it has meant that my youngest is still engaging with learning while I help the eldest and vice versa. My four‑year‑old would spend all day on it of he could, and his letter recognition has come along wonderfully!” – Deborah
“I love Reading Eggs. It has shown me that my child can learn quickly, despite being in the struggling lower sets at school. It has changed our lives. Home educating became a pleasure instead of a stress from the first moment we used it. It is so incredible to see my child's progress, and it is all due to it being fun, engaging and lasting the right length of time per lesson. I have recommended it far and wide. I know if this was used in school my child would have not been so far behind and struggling so much. This is minimal parental effort, with maximum child progress. My child has gained 9 months [in his] reading age in 2 months, using it for 30–45 minutes a day, 3–4 times a week and has enjoyed it. It's never been a chore. It's the best money on education I've ever spent.” – Sarah
“I homeschool my boys. My 7‑year‑old did nearly a year at school and by the end of his time there his confidence and mood were in tatters! I took the decision to homeschool. I found that the thing he disliked the most was reading. I found Readings Eggs after a little research to get some help. Guess what…he loves reading now. I've watched his confidence grow and his reading ability is outstanding! Reading Eggs is wonderful. Both my youngest sons love to read, and I absolutely cannot thank you enough for putting so much effort into this truly wonderful and engaging resource. As a family we can't wait every day to continue on our reading journey. Thank you again.” – Claire
“I'm home schooling my two sons, 4 and 7 years old. Reading Eggs has helped a lot by supporting what the kids learn in their curriculum. The program has given me some free time as well as I now spend less time introducing the kids to other reading aspects. Within two months using the program I have seen some improvements already. The 4‑year‑old knows the phonics, [can] read [a] few words and do some math. His older brother has improved on his reading skills and understanding. They like the games and challenges and not realizing that they learn while playing. Reading Eggs has been the best online reading program for me. Very easy and fun to use, my kids showed me how to navigate the site. I'm sharing the experience with all my friends and family members.” – Nominyaka
“Great website for kids who are homeschooling. This resource is very helpful and easy to use. It's educational and fun for my child!” – Lindsey Perry
“We have always homeschooled our children. Sometimes finding engaging, up to date, programs and activities that they actually enjoy and yet really teach them and “stick” is difficult. We all enjoy Reading Eggs. My kids don't mind doing school. They look forward to the games, don't mind the lessons and are reading books of their own will in the library. My 7‑year‑old loves that she can write a book of her very own and it's on HER library shelf. I love that they don't mind, and that things are repeated in a variety of ways to make sure that concepts are truly learned, not just memorised. They actively work to earn eggs for trophies each week and look to see how they are progressing. They can check their own standings and let me know if they have improved. Also, Reading Eggs encourages independent learning and responsibility for progress. A huge bonus is that it covers maths, science and social studies as well. My single only complaint is that homeschool lessons only go through 2nd grade. But then what parent doesn't scream more, more, more. There is no way I could find another comprehensive program like Reading Eggs for three children for the cost. We recommend it to anyone who is homeschooling or who needs to get an extra boost while they are learning online during COVID.” – Kory
“I love Reading Eggs. I'm using their homeschool plan for my 1st grade twins and have been so pleased with the whole program. One of my twins is a typical learner and the other one struggles a lot with attention difficulties and learning differences, but Reading Eggs is working great for both of them. They've made excellent progress so far and do their lessons each day with no problems. Reading Eggs has worksheets available for each lesson, too, so they're also getting in their needed handwriting practice. The homeschool plan includes books and ideas for Science and Social Studies as well so I'm not having to supplement with a bunch of other programs.” – Terri
“My boys love Reading Eggs. The site is easy to navigate and there are so many activities to keep them engaged. We use Reading Eggs for some of our homeschool curriculum and I love how they engage in each activity and get excited to crack the egg at the end of each lesson. Reading Eggs helps me give each child one‑on‑one time and keep the chaos to a minimum! I highly recommend them to everyone.” – Sarah
“We absolutely love Readings Eggs, I love all of the homeschool features between the curriculum layout for all subjects for the year and the lesson plans for each lesson are great. I ordered the mega [book] pack and can't wait to get started next week with our actual school classes. My daughter loves Mathseeds already. We are excited for kindergarten.” – Kimberly
“I homeschool and [am] using this as my child's reading program. She loves it. Loves playing the games.” – Laurie
“Being a first year homeschool mom I picked a reading curriculum that was not a good fit for my year one daughter. In my search to find another reading program I stumbled upon Reading Eggs. After reading the great reviews I figured I would give it a try as a supplement, meanwhile I found a new reading curriculum, boy was I wrong. This program has it all. She improved in spelling, reading, reading comprehension and most important my daughter found learning to read fun not frustrating.” – Isabel
“My son LOVES Reading Eggs. We follow the kindergarten homeschool lesson plan even though he's only going into pre-k4. We are following the plan to a tee so he gets excited every Monday when he gets to move on. He's progressing fabulously! I love that the lessons always incorporate previous lessons so he's always being reminded of letters and sounds he previously earned. Highly recommend this program!” – Stacey
“I initially purchased Reading Eggs as an additional resource so my kids could have an educational game in addition to the other homeschool resources we're using. I'm more impressed everyday with the different features of the application. Both of my kids are doing better with both reading and comprehension. They get to have characters and earn badges so they want to play and read and learn. I haven't given up my other resources, but this application has more features than I realised and I'm more pleased every day. I'm still learning more about this program and homeschooling, as we're new to homeschooling, and I would recommend Reading Eggs to all parents.” – Nichole
“Great program! Our son loves having his own avatar that he can buy pets for with his reward eggs and acorns. Mathseeds and Reading Eggspress are superb – love the worksheets to complement each map's lessons. Loads of material that you can print out to complement topics of the week, plus for homeschooling purposes, I loved having sample weekly plans. He has learned so much already from both programs in just a few weeks. Highly recommend - our son was quite literate when we started this, so we found it helpful that there is a placement test to match your child to their ability. Only downside: as a Canadian, some of the material is US focused – would be great to adapt some of the lessons for Canadians (eg. currency, history, etc).” – Peggy
“I got Reading Eggs during the beginning of the Pandemic crisis for my son. They hadn't had any homeschool setup at the time and the program they told us to use is horrible compared to Reading Eggs. I actually use both because I have to use the [school recommended] one as they check but I think he learns more from the Reading Eggs. My mom is a retired teacher and was sitting with him one day. She said the same about Reading Eggs – that it's way better than the other [program].” – Neil
“My child really loves the acorns and the eggs too. I'm watching him start to make all kinds of connections when we read at night and just throughout the day. As a homeschooling mum, this has been great for my kindergartener.” – Jan G.
“We love Reading Eggs! It is a routine part of our homeschool day, for kids ages 2, 8, 11 and 12.” – Lisa
“I can't say enough [good] things about Reading Eggs. My boy, [age] 7 struggled with reading and as a first time homeschool mom my biggest concern [was] teaching him to read, but he is now a reader. Thank you Reading Eggs.” – Heather
“I am an educator and homeschool parent. I have many subscriptions, but this ranks in our top 2. We use it daily for phonics and reading, but surprisingly, Mathseeds is a good supplement or introduction to maths on its own too. I love the fact that your journey through stages and concepts begins with a placement test. If you get 3 wrong they stop you there and you will begin on that level. More importantly, if you feel that it becomes too challenging or not challenging enough, you choose another level. It is just the right amount of repetition once you get their leveling just right. It introduces concepts at a great pace, is colourful and captivating, but fun. My son recently turned 5 but is advanced. I appreciate the fact that I can challenge him using this program alone but also he enjoys this very much! Since you can try it for free, it's really no risk!! I have recommended it to other families and will continue to do so!! I even plan on doing a review for YouTube and social media so others can see why and how it works.” – @ICanYouCanLearn (Learning with Lindsay)
“I looooove this program! And so does my daughter! We struggled to start homeschooling this year (she's 5 with…a personality) and this has helped us bridge that. The only thing I don't like is that it has to be connected to internet the entire time. I'd love to use in the car etc. but not stream data. Certified teacher turned homeschool mom approval!” – Sarah
“The program so far has been great! I started homeschooling my 5‑year‑old for kindergarten and found this program through good reviews. The only thing that'd make it better is an option to print a score/certificate for every quiz done and not just the quiz at the end of the map so I could add them to his homeschooling portfolio.” – Mindy
“I love it. First, we used it at my school for children [ages] K-2 and decided to try it at home with my preschool son and [I] highly recommend it. He was improving his letter recognition and practising letter sounds. The plus [being] he was able to stay on task for 20 minutes independently which I needed him to be able to do to get ready for kindergarten. This gave him an idea of how kindergarten ready he will be. My child has Autism so I have tried other programs and he loses interest and requires my help because of the sound, or the pictures. This is one he did not complain [about] or mind at all. Plus, he calls it the egg game, [and] I see this as a win. He thinks it is game which means he will keep playing and learning. [As a] mum, [I'm] happy he is learning and working independently. What more can I ask for?” – Diana B
“I was not sure what to expect, but I knew my daughter was struggling with reading and was not sure why. She was mixing her words up and I could see the frustration. Then, COVID came along and while we had online programs from her school, I knew we needed more. So, I searched for this program and read the reviews. I saw how people praised it and thought it could not hurt to try. I am proud to say that my child started Reading Eggs about two months ago, and she has grown 280 Lexile [levels] and [is] reading well into her next grade level. The games, the badges and the points [she's] earned all help to boost her confidence, and she really took off. As a parent, I like very much the dashboard where I can see where she is strongest and where we can reinforce things like vocabulary. I feel a lot better about her going into her next grade. It is hard to see your child whom you know is intelligent and able but [is] not progressing and getting frustrated. This program has really been helpful. She also loves Mathseeds, but our school system uses a different online program. I let her do both. I have my son using Reading Eggs, but he is 9 and reads really well. Still, this program challenges him on things like reading comprehension and other skills that he needs, which is good because that's the sort of thing that is included in our standardised tests. So, if you're on the fence, give this a try. At first, you kind of have to make the kids do it, but then they get really into it. On occasion, I have to help them out a little such as when they get more advanced texts and have not been introduced to the vocabulary. But, then, they are on their way. Give it two months and I think you will like the results.” – Nikki

“I absolutely love it. It has greatly helped my daughter with her maths as well as recognising letters. She has gotten so much better. The fun repetitive games are amazing. We utilise it with our homeschooling and it's a fun, interactive way to learn.” – Asia
“My child really loves the acorns and the eggs too. I'm watching him start to make all kinds of connections when we read at night and just throughout the day. As a homeschooling mum, this has been great for my kindergartener.” – Jan G
“We were shown this website from my son's teacher in the wake of COVID-19. It has been a godsend as far as teaching from home goes. I use all of the products suggested and I know my son will be ready for 1st grade.” – Carla
“My son's reading has improved greatly since he started Reading Eggs. With Reading Eggs as an addition to his homeschooling lessons such as phonics and language, Elijah has become great at decoding words. He has gone from a first grade reading [level] to a second grade reading level in 5 months.” – Chanda
“We love Reading Eggs! It is a routine part of our homeschool day, for kids ages 2, 8, 11 and 12.” – Lisa

“My daughter is dyslexic and struggles [with] reading. I homeschool her due to classes being so large [that] she does not get the one-on-one [time] she needs to succeed. Since starting Reading Eggs she has excelled dramatically and loves to read and spell. Absolutely love this program. She looks forward to her course every day. Thank you for giving her a chance to learn and grow!” – Felisha
“I absolutely love the printout worksheets. This is my first year homeschooling which was very scary, so Reading Eggs helped me so much for scheduling my day out.” – Jenn
“I am a homeschool mum of five kids. The four oldest are boys. We were introduced to Reading Eggs when my oldest was in kindergarten. The program is incredible. With four boys who are very visual, Reading Eggs has been the program that enhances their skills and engages them the most. I recommend this program to every mum that asks about reading. My oldest two boys are fluent, excited readers and my third son is hatching egg 62 and working through first grade learning. They ask me if they can do Reading Eggs.” – Brenna
“As a homeschool family, I've been so impressed and thankful for Reading Eggs! While I sat with my 7-year-old and completed his maths lessons, my 5-year-old was able to teach herself to read using this program! Then we would switch places and my son would complete additional maths work on Mathseeds! It has been like having an assistant teacher in the room with me at home. And I love that it's a program they can navigate on their own with little help from me.” – Christy
“As a homeschool mum, I tried EVERYTHING with my reluctant readers. Reading Eggs is the only thing they actually ENJOY! So thankful for this program.” – Heather
“We've been using Reading Eggs for a few years now as homeschoolers and [we] love it. We recommend it to anyone starting out homeschooling or for a supplement. The site is easy to navigate for my kids and I – [it's] engaging, and fun, all while ACTUALLY teaching them something! Signing up/cancellation are both super simple and easy and they regularly offer discounts for renewal. With two more to teach to read, we will most likely continue to be members for years to come.” – Corissa
“Reading Eggs has been an absolute blessing to us. We homeschool and nothing that we were doing was seeming to help my daughter when it came to learning to read. Within two weeks of using this program I could tell we had found what we had been missing. In just a short amount of time she has started to read. I can't say enough about how much we love this program.” – Judy
“We are a homeschooling family with a six-year-old and a four-year-old. Reading Eggs and Mathseeds reinforced the other lessons I taught them and gave them practice that they enjoyed.” – Chaïma N.
“As a homeschooling family, Reading Eggs has been a great supplement to my little one's learning. My 5-year-old already knows the letters and sounds, but this teaches her more, and is a great review! It's a fun way for her to do it. We also take advantage of the free worksheets they have that you can print out that tie to each lesson. My daughter loves those also. It helps introduce words as well. We have ABCmouse also, which my daughter also likes, but Reading Eggs makes sure she understands what she just learned before moving on. I like that. My daughter actually asks me to be able to do Reading Eggs and Mathseeds. She truly enjoys it. I sit with her and it's neat to see what she is learning, and how much she picks up. We recommend Reading Eggs!” – Capucine D.
“Reading Eggs is a big help for our homeschooling family, English is our second language and this program is making our progress in reading and learning language rules improve very fast. Surprisingly even mum is learning some new things. I think Reading Eggs has everything covered xxx.” – Amélie E.
“We love Reading Eggs. As a homeschool mum of three little ones it's a huge blessing to our family. I have seen our 7 and 4-year-old fall in love with maths because of this program.” – Méline Z.
“My daughter and I absolutely love this. I used this site when homeschooling her through pre-kindergarten/kindergarten and she ended up being way ahead. Reading at a Year 3 level in kindergarten! Mathseeds is also her favourite thing to do. I like that she likes to use this on her own so there's no asking her to do things. I recommend this to everyone I talk to!” – Thibault Z.
“When we first began the program, I was sceptical because other reading apps had been a huge disappointment. We LOVE Reading Eggs and Reading Eggspress in our homeschool and we also use Mathseeds. My kiddos ask to do the lessons every day and stay engaged the whole time. I am grateful I came across a program that works so well for my kiddo with special needs. He has grown leaps and bounds in reading since adding this to our reading curriculum. It's fun, engaging and its spiral learning approach works best for our family's learning style. I would recommend this over and over to anyone. Especially to families who have tried and have been disappointed with some of the 'leading' reading/phonics apps out there. Reading Eggs is the best!” – Bastien Z.
“Both of my homeschool children hate reading, but I never have a problem getting them to use this program! Thanks!” – Florian D.
“Not only does Reading Eggs have interactive lessons and games, but it also has accompanying worksheets and a detailed scope and sequence, a useful tool for educators, both in a formal school and homeschool. As a former public school teacher and a current homeschooling mum, I cannot recommend it enough.” – Luka Y.
“I have enjoyed this website as a supplement to my homeschool routine for my children. It is thorough & fun for a change of pace to traditional workbooks & they are learning while having fun. I catch them frequently singing the songs or remembering facts from Sam the Ant or Mango!” – Eliot I.
“My son loves this program. We use it in our homeschool day in addition to our maths and reading curriculum. I have seen an improvement in just a short time. We will continue through the summer to retain what we've learned. Excellent program!” – Noé Q.
“My 7-year-old and I love Reading Eggs and Mathseeds! We have used it since she was 4, and currently use the homeschool schedule and activity pages to make a full curriculum. I am very happy with her reading progress so far. We plan to continue using it until she completes the all the lessons.” – Apolline A.
“The kids navigate the website easily. Great for early readers/middle schoolers with Dyslexia. We supplement our homeschool curriculum with Reading Eggs. It allows the teacher to have a break while the child is still learning and having fun doing it. We have two kids enrolled and will have two additional non-English speakers starting very soon. I am hopeful this will be a good supplement for them to learn English grammar.” – Yasmine L.
“Reading Eggs and Mathseeds are a valuable addition to our homeschool, which I have used with multiple children and learning disabilities too. I will continue to sign up every year until the kids out grow it. It is a fun, engaging way to learn the basic phonics and maths skills. In addition, their worksheets and homeschool scheduling helps too! Loyal customer here!” – Tony Q.
“We absolutely love Reading Eggs. I am a homeschool mum of a kindergartener & this site has made my life so much easier. I was terrified of teach my son to read. He has only used Reading Eggs for about 5 months & is already starting to read!” – Kevin P.
“I was having a difficult time helping my 6-year-old progress on his learning-to-read journey, so I signed him up for this website. In just one month's time, his interest in reading and ability to do so has skyrocketed! His confidence is up and he continues to impress me with his progress. As a homeschooling mum, this website has proven to be a great tool because not only does it make life easier by being a program my son is able to do on his own, but it's fun for the kids and higher in quality compared to similar websites that I've also used in the past. We use the Mathseeds portion as well and it is just as helpful! I would recommend this website to anyone seeking additional help for their children. It's been amazing for us.” – Rémi T.
“This program is the perfect supplement for homeschool!” – Solène G.
“As a former elementary educator and current homeschooler, this program is outstanding. I'm using it for first grade, kindergarten and pre-K, with the latter on iPad. Good phonics, great organisation of lessons and positive screen time learning. My children can't wait to complete the lesson of the day and then ‘play' the learning games. We are also dabbling in Mathseeds and that is a fabulous reinforcement for our curriculum. I rave about this to all. It has made actual book reading for my kids more enjoyable. THANK YOU for sharing this with us!!” – Gabin Q.
“This has been a great way to reward my two homeschoolers. They think of it as a treat. I think of it as reading and maths practice.” – Emilie Q.
“ This is the only app I use in our homeschool curriculum. My four and six‑year‑olds love it and it really shows you how far they have come in just a few short months. ” – Éloïse Y.
“ This is, hands down, the best single purchase I ever made for my homeschool. We've moved from Reading Eggs to Reading Eggspress now, and have almost completed all of the available Mathseeds content. As long as this company continues to add content, I will continue to purchase both Reading Eggs (and Reading Eggspress) and Mathseeds. I cannot honestly review the Reading Eggs Jr. portion of the website as all of my children and grandchildren were too old for that introductory level, and we never used it. ” – Marine T.
“ I'm a homeschooling mom who is trying to teach my son to read. My daughter did wonderful with Hooked on Phonics from the library and I was hoping my son would too. But it just did not capture his attention. Reading Eggs has made all the difference! We started from the beginning since he was struggling and in only two months he completed the kindergarten grade level! He has a new confidence when it comes to reading. We also love Mathseeds! My older daughter is using both, too. Not out of need but she thinks it's fun. Any extra reinforcements are encouraged. I'm so glad I stumbled upon them! Also, they are very affordable for a homeschooling family on one income. ” – Kenzo L.
“ We absolutely love Reading Eggs. I implemented it into our homeschool curriculum this year and it has really helped my little one with reading. We will continue to use it. It makes learning fun!! ” – Aurélien R.
“ This is the most valuable resource for our homeschool! ” – Jean W.
“ Wonderful support for a busy homeschooling mum. ” – Luka S.
“ My five‑year‑old can't wait to do Reading Eggs every morning (we homeschool)! ” – Tony H.
“ Homeschooling two kids with ADHD makes finding curriculum that keeps their attention more difficult. When we found Reading Eggs we finally found something that worked. We recommend it to all our friends. ” – Gaspard W.
“ We use Reading Eggs and Mathseeds and have [done so] for almost three years. It has been fantastic! It's comprehensive and makes teaching at home so much easier. ” – Claire Q.
“ I highly recommend Reading Eggs and Mathseeds for homeschooling, or as an extra tutoring tool for the weekend. I am very impressed at how well put together the program is. I especially love the virtual library. ” – Gaël U.
“ We love Reading Eggs! It's been a wonderful addition to our homeschool studies and has made reading fun. ” – Julia X.
“ My kids (ages 4, 6, & 8) all love to "play" Reading Eggs! It has significantly improved all of their reading skills in a short amount of time! I recommend Reading Eggs to all my friends. It is much easier to use than any of the other phonics reading systems that I have looked at. It does not have boxes or bags of supplies and supplemental materials. All we need is the laptop and internet connection. It also improves hand eye coordination and computer skills by practicing using the mouse, clicking icons, etc. Using a computer based product to teach phonics works really well because the pronunciation is so consistent and the computer never gets bored or frustrated sounding things out repetitively. Thanks Reading Eggs! ” – Jen (Homeschooling Mom of 3).
“ We are homeschooling for the first time this year. The kiddo we are currently home schooling is a special needs guy and Reading Eggs/Mathseeds keeps this guy interested in work every single day! He loves the music and interaction. Great program! ” – Titouan C.
“ My kids are homeschooled and this is the best reading and maths site that I have ever found. My son started not knowing all the letter sounds and within a few months he was reading at a first grade level. I only wish this went throughout all the grades. ” – Mehdi C.
“ Engaging way for my homeschooler to reinforce what he's learning! ” – Timothée M.
“ Love this app! Matches the same reading introductory method as the homeschool curriculum we plan to use. Love the supplemental screen time rather than goofy playing. Good balance of games (review) and learning lessons in a fun way. Very effective with my busy 4‑year‑old. ” – Erwan S.
“ We have used this program as an addition to our English homeschool program. Both our kids have used this program. The oldest used Reading Eggspress and loved it! We also have a struggling 2nd grade reader. Also, [we] believe [her] to be a little ADD/dyslexia. Reading Eggs has kept her interest and [her] love of learning how to read. The games, songs and earning eggs after a lesson captures her attention. She loves getting rewarded for her work! ” – Claire L.
“ Both my children have grown so much in their ability to read due to the lessons. I will use it for years to come in our homeschooling. ” – Melvin N.
“ A very good reading program. My wife and I used it for both grandsons whom we homeschooled. A multifaceted approach, student friendly and parent friendly, lots of chances to review or move ahead at student's pace. Will work on laptops and other devices. Top‑notched!!! ” – Maya J.
“ We love this program. We are a homeschool family, and this program is perfect for those days [when] they fight regular school time. And they want to do it, they will do chores if they can play when they are done! We also have ABC mouse but they choose this over it every time. ” – Anaëlle Z.
“ I took a short leave from Reading Eggs with my kids for a while and when I came back, I had more control as well as better ways to check up on my children's progress in their learning. As a homeschool mom, this is VERY important! I love these changes and my kids love being back on the program! ” – Emeline H.
“ I am a homeschool mom and my six‑year‑old was really struggling with gaining progress in his reading skills. He just seemed to have been at a stand‑still for so long. We tried another online program without much success. Reading Eggs has finally helped him move forward and start making progress again! We are so grateful for Reading Eggs!!! ” – Capucine A.
“ Great for homeschooling my son!!! ” – Lorenzo H.
“ Reading Eggs is wonderful! It is a great website and my 5‑year‑old is learning a lot without even realising it. I homeschool my 10, 9 and 5-year-old. This allows time for me to work with the 10 and 9‑year‑old, while the youngest is working on his own – it makes him feel like a big kid 😉 ” – Kenza E.
“ I highly recommend Reading Eggs. I am a homeschool mum and use it as a supplement for our language arts program. I have seen a significant improvement in my child's reading with this program. Very thorough and well thought out program that is a great addition for any homeschool family! ” – Alex N.
“ I love Reading Eggs, Reading Eggspress and Mathseeds. I have used it for years to help my homeschool kids and for tutoring. I especially love the additional beautifully laid out worksheets – ELA, Comprehension, Spelling and Maths! I only wished there was a table of contents to peruse lessons easily. It is one of the very programs used for multiple ages and stages for children. I will continue to use as long as I need to !!!!!!!!! Recommend fully to anyone. It's the best buy and value for the fee. Thank you so much. ” – Angelina S.
“ My 7-year-old son really enjoys the Reading Eggs program. His reading and maths skills have both improved greatly. As a homeschool mum, I appreciate having the extra worksheets to go with the lessons. It gives me something concrete to show what he knows. ” – Elodie C.
“ My daughter uses this in homeschooling every day and loves it. Hands down the best learning app!!! ” – Sara C.
“ Excellent program! My son has learned so much! We use it as a supplemental resource to our homeschool! ” – Loïc Y.
“ I Love Reading Eggs and Mathseeds!!!! My son didn't know how to read and these programs have given him the skills to now recognise letters and start building his reading and maths skills. His maths has really improved as well. We are a homeschool family and will continue with this program. I highly recommend it!! ” – Charline P.
“ We love our experience with Reading Eggs. It has been a wonderful addition to our homeschooling curriculum. ” – Luna C.
“ Reading Eggs is an excellent program for teaching children. Not only homeschool but help for those struggling in school. Very well done. Our homeschool program uses many of the programs in the school curriculum and we also use it for extra practice. ” – Lucile N.
“ This is it! After many attempts to find what would help my struggling readers "get it", they are working through the program and are reading and understanding maths concepts. I was really beginning to doubt my own abilities as a homeschool and as an adoptive mom to help them get past their struggles. We tried this program on a whim, I figured they could at least have fun with the free trial while we evaluated what steps to take next. At seven and eight they were my latest readers, and we were all exhausted. They are so proud of themselves, I am so proud of them, and I've been amazed to see how getting over the hump has helped their focus in every area – in and out of school. Discouraged mamas, this helped us but may not be the program that helps you, but just keep working hard to help your kids. You're amazing for searching out what works and not giving up when it's so hard! Keep it up! ❤️ ” – Victor D.
“ Excellent program. It builds a child's reading skills gradually and in a fun and interactive way. The third level teaches very good reading skills as well as test taking skills. I love sitting with my child and doing each lesson. The program offers rewards and contests that keep the child excited while still learning. It has been a great addition to our homeschool! ” – Amélie G.
“ I love the new homeschool curriculum outline! I feel like it is just the right amount to get started with kindergarten. My son asks daily to sit down and do a lesson and then play some games. He just turned five and his reading confidence has grown leaps and bounds in just the past month. ” – Léana J.
“ I hesitated trying Reading Eggs with my 5 and 7‑year‑old. After all it was only a 4‑week trial and after that I'd have to buy it. Reluctantly, I decided to give it a try since I didn't need to enter a card number. Well, both my kids loved doing the lessons! My 5‑year‑old was finally grasping concepts I couldn't get her to understand. I discovered there was a worksheet packet for each lesson and we started using those as well. Both of them were progressing so much in reading and then we started using the Mathseeds [program]. Wow!! I decided right then to sign up for the full year since that would give us the most time to work through all of the lessons. It's been an amazing addition to our homeschool! If you are on the fence just give the 4‑week trial a chance. I'm sure your kids will love it as much as mine but if not, there are no strings attached to this trial. ” – Chiara Q.
“ Everything about Reading Eggs is amazing. The ordering process is fast and easy. I use Reading Eggs as part of our homeschool curriculum for two of my kids. They have both made excellent improvement in their reading skills. I have tried everything for my dyslexic daughter and nothing has helped until Reading Eggs. I absolutely love this program! ” – Bryan Q.
“ The lessons and quizzes keep my children (5 and 7) engaged and excited to learn! [It] allows me to supplement their homeschooling with computer/iPad/etc. work rather than book work only...and they love that! Absolutely worth the investment in cost and time! ” – Morgan I.
“ It is a wonderful program! It has been a great tool in our homeschooling journey! ” – David C.
“ We love Reading Eggs, we used it all the time for supplementing our homeschooling and my daughters enjoyed it as well. ” – Lucile G.
“ Love this. Has been very helpful in homeschooling – my child dreads other programs but looks forward to using this program! She asks to use it and really enjoys it. It's the only program she doesn't complain about. ” – Rémi G.
“ All three of our homeschooled children use this program & love it. Such a fun way to learn how to read. ” – Charles Q.
“ I homeschool all my kids and teaching them to read is the most difficult task. I found this for my youngest (reluctant) reader. It has been a wonderful supplement to our curriculum. He actually begs to use Reading Eggs...even on the weekend! ” – Amélie X.
“ I really enjoy both Reading Eggs and Mathseeds programs. I am homeschooling three elementary kids. It is nice for me to be able to sit one at the computer while I work with another child. Not only do the kids enjoy the programs [but] they [also] learn a lot. I've sat and watched them play a few games and was shocked at how well it fit in with my other reading and math curriculums. I also appreciate that they have little quizzes at the end of each unit and that they send me progress reports. I would highly recommend this program to any of my friends with kids! ” – Clémentine G.
“ My daughter is almost 3.5 years old. She loves Reading Eggs. I am homeschooling and English is our second language. She studies maths and watches videos very happily. I recommended it to my friends, and now, I recommend Reading Eggs to everyone who is looking for a trusted English learning site. ” – Maïlys A.
“ I use this a supplement to my homeschooling for my 9, 6, and 3‑year‑old. I love the parent dashboard so I can print out review work. I have also used the print out sheets as an indicator to reset my kindergartner back a few lessons for mastery. ” – Kyllian X.
“ Reading Eggs, Reading Eggspress, and Mathseeds are programs we use almost daily. [It's an] invaluable supplement and reinforcement to our homeschool curriculum. I love the library of books! My reluctant reader seems to do much better reading these than a regular book. She loves to do spelling lessons, driving tests and choosing and buying trading cards in Reading Eggspress. When given free time, she often chooses to go into the playroom. I've recommended Reading Eggs countless times to other homeschool families. You can't go wrong, especially with the discount Perx through HSLDA. Some of the moms I've recommended have come back to me to share that they are using one or more of these programs with their children. One in particular took my recommendation and is thrilled with the progress her son is making in math. Program runs well on multiple devices. We've used desktop, laptop, and iPad with great success. Will continue to recommend. ” – Lou-Ann A.
“ We love this program for our homeschooling needs! ” – Adèle X.
“ We have used this program for two of our grandsons whom we homeschooled for the past four years. They learned to read via Reading Eggs. Can't say enough for the quality of the program, ease of operation, multiple leaning styles addressed and just plain fun. Best, Papa and Grandy ” – Tony E.
“ We have been using Reading Eggs for a few months now as part of our homeschool curriculum and it's been such a blessing! The games are so fun my daughter forgets she's doing school and learning! We also have Mathseeds and she can't wait to do it first before anything else. I cannot recommend this program enough! ” – Yannis L.
“ Hi Reading Eggs! I wanted to share with you how amazing this program has been for my two children. My daughter struggled with reading in kindergarten because our school here teaches sight words rather than phonics. I pulled her out to homeschool and tried some other programs like Hooked on Phonics and All About Reading. She did better but still struggled quite a bit. I was talking with a friend who recommended Reading Eggs. We did the trial and were very impressed! My daughter even asked to do it on the weekends! Now she is thriving with reading and my son was able to benefit from the program right from the start of his kindergarten year. We have readers and it's all thanks to you! ” – A satisfied customer!
