✰✰ "I think Noodle Words a new classic; a breakthrough like Dr. Seuss's books, but in a sillier than ever, touchable medium." -- Ann H. McCormick, PhD, Founder, The Learning Company
✰✰ "It's refreshing to see a word app that introduces reading by encouraging children to play with words. There is a time and a place for letter sounds and blends, but in this app your child will connect word meanings with words, having a grand time in the process. I love this as an educator, but also as a parent of young children." -- Barbara Chamberlin, PhD, Director, NMSU Learning Games Labs
✰✰ "This is such a fantastic app for my profoundly autistic teenage daughter. It is perfect. All I wish is for there to be hundreds more words! Thank you for all the work that must have gone into this app." -- a satisfied Mom

Not all children learn to read the same way. Exposure, repetition, and context all help build relationships to vocabulary and understanding. Noodle Words is a word-toy designed to offer emerging readers a playful modality for language acquisition and word comprehension. Kids of all ages can explore at their own pace, and develop a love of word play through direct interaction. It's even designed to draw-in the most hesitant early reader.
Noodle Words is a wonderful app to play with your children. Some kids love to show off what they can do, and others love to laugh with you when the Noodle Bugs do something silly. We hope playing together with your children brings you the same joy we had while making this app.
