Agugu: Speech Therapy Games

Practicing sounds at home doesn't have to be a struggle. With Agugu, a cheerful talking T-Rex, children aged 3 to 6 play their way to clearer speech, one giggle at a time.

Agugu's mouth moves with every sound he says, showing lips, teeth and tongue. Your child watches how a word is made and copies him, just like in front of a speech therapist's mirror.

WHY PARENTS LOVE AGUGU
• Real practice, not just screen time: the games use what speech therapists use: minimal pairs, sound sorting, syllables, mouth exercises and lots of talking.
• Shows how, not just what: when a word is tricky, Agugu explains in child-friendly words how to make the sound, and shows it on his face.
• Fits your child: switch off the sounds your child can't say yet, and the games leave those words out. Only words they can win.
• Every try counts: mistakes never cost points. Stars, trophies, confetti and a very happy dinosaur keep little ones going.
• Practice between sessions: an easy way to keep up at home what your child works on with a therapist.

SEVEN GAMES
👅 Mouth Gym: the warm-up therapists do, with rhymes, counting and candles to blow out with your breath.
🦜 Listen & Say: cat or hat? Tap the picture you hear, then say the word.
🧺 Which Sound?: sort words into baskets by sound: S or SH, R or W, K or T and more.
🃏 Pairs: a picture memory game where every pair found is said out loud.
✨ Word Slots: pull the lever, and the word appears only once your child says it. Practices CH.
🚂 Choo-Choo Train: sing syllables with Agugu (ma, me, mi…), then build words from them in the train's wagons.
🦖 Roar Battle: roar loud enough to blow Agugu away, then try a tiny baby-dino roar.

MADE FOR LITTLE ONES
• A profile for every child, with their own animal buddy, so even children who can't read yet find theirs.
• Speaking is always optional, and every game also works without a microphone.
• Agugu says each game's instructions out loud, so children who can't read yet can play on their own.
• Forgiving listening: young children's speech is hard to recognize, so near misses count.
• Agugu is full of surprises: tickle his cheek and he giggles, poke his nose and he sneezes, leave him alone and he falls asleep.

THREE LANGUAGES, NOT TRANSLATIONS
English, Bulgarian and Spanish (Spain), each with its own words, sounds and mouth exercises, chosen for that language.

SAFE AND PRIVATE
• No ads, no accounts, no tracking.
• Agugu's voice is built into the app, so the games play without internet. Only checking a spoken word may use it, for speech recognition.
• The microphone is only used during speaking games. Agugu doesn't record or keep anything.

TRY IT FREE
Mouth Gym and Listen & Say are free, for good. One purchase unlocks every game, including the ones still to come. No subscription.

Agugu is a practice buddy for home, not a replacement for a speech therapist. If you're worried about your child's speech, talk to a professional.
