First Words with Will & Holly

Play First Words with Will & Holly to help your baby, toddler or child learn new words in English using interactive flashcards.

Engage baby's interest with a bold and simple art style and fun sounds. Help toddlers learn words with clear speech and large text.

Designed by a UK Primary School Teacher for babies and toddlers between 1 to 5 years old. This app will teach your children hundreds of first words in English with 4 different voices.

Boost vocabulary: baby/toddler can learn over 500 simple first words in English. With hundreds of pictures in the app, each flashcard features a simple cartoon that baby will love. Tap the cartoon to show a photograph to learn how the real-world equivalent looks. Kids will love being able to hear the words spoken with a choice of either a male or female voice (hear words spoken by a man, woman, boy or girl). Your baby/toddler is sure to have fun with hundreds of sound effects.

First Words with Will & Holly features 24 fun flashcard categories for kids with common words including: animals, clothes, vehicles, food, letters, body, home, shapes, toys, numbers and more. 4 special interactive categories show an alternate word to keep your baby/toddler engaged.

When your baby or toddler is ready to test their learning of new words try out 2 game modes:
-Guess the word: test baby/toddler's knowledge by saying the word on the flashcard before revealing the hidden label and hearing the spoken word;
-Picture match: using multiple choice, baby/toddler can try to choose the right picture for the word shown on the flashcard by flipping each picture.

Kids can enjoy learning by playing together with parents, grandparents or carers because the large text makes it easy to read from a distance.

Ideal for use at nursery/preschool/kindergarten where children will play and learn at the same time. First Words with Will & Holly is also an excellent speech therapy resource to help children and adults of any age to learn to say their first words. It can also be a resource for learning English as a foreign language.

Built with accessibility in mind this app has large text and allows both portrait and landscape mode. Simplify the experience for baby or toddler by switching off background colours, animation and sound effects. Change the size and colour of the text to make the word on each flashcard easier to read. With 100% offline play, kids can learn their first words anywhere. Autoplay slideshow mode to teach baby/toddler their first words without needing to touch the screen.

Is your baby too young to learn their first words? For younger children see our Learn Sounds with Will & Holly app featuring over 100 flashcards aimed at babies 0 - 2 year old.
