Recommended educational game for preschoolers – Talking Dictionaries

Talking dictionaries or speaker-speller devices are an excellent way for kids to learn how to correctly read the words on a page. They’re a great complement to an adult sitting with a child pronouncing the words that a child does not yet know. This is a key skill needed to be a successful reader.

Children’s Talking Dictionary & Spell Corrector is an example of a good talking dictionary. It helps with spelling, basic definitions, and it includes interactive games that your kids can play.

To play a game with the dictionary, set a timer and have your child give a certain number of 5 letter words. See how quickly your child can type the words into the dictionary, get the definition and listen to the words.

Skills developed: Helps kids learn how to decode (correctly read the words on a page).

“My 5-year-old, Diego, is just beginning to read. When I heard about Reading Kingdom I was intrigued. I love programs that use games to teach children. They don’t realize how much they are learning while playing the games… Diego now comes home from school, finishes his homework then asks to play on the Reading Kingdom game. I love it!” — Amber Ortega
