SpellBee: Spelling Bee Kids

SpellBee is the fastest way to get spelling-bee ready. Pick a grade level, hit start, and the pronouncer does the rest — reading each word aloud, offering the definition, and using it in a sentence on request, just like a real bee.

Built by a spelling-bee parent who was tired of drill apps that feel like worksheets.

THREE WAYS TO PRACTICE

• TYPE — See the prompt, type the word, check instantly. Misses trigger a clear spell-out so you hear every letter.
• LETTER TILES — Tap letters into place. Early readers build words without a keyboard.
• SPELL ALOUD — Say each letter, hands-free. SpellBee understands letter names ("see a tee" → CAT), opens the mic by itself after each word, and checks when your child stops talking. Say "repeat" to hear a word again.

QUESTS, HONEY AND BADGES
Three daily quests, honey for every correct word, Bee ranks from Egg to Queen Bee, and badges for milestones. Perfect rounds get confetti.

NUMBER BEE
Spell numbers as words ("38" → thirty-eight) or play Math Bee: hear a sum, work it out, spell the answer. Three sizes from 0–20 up to 0–999.

DID YOU KNOW?
Over 100 words come with a fun fact the pronouncer reads aloud — the reward for getting a word right.

EIGHT DIFFICULTY LEVELS
From K-1 starter words to championship-tier stumpers like "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis". Every word ships with a definition and an example sentence so the context lands.

THEMED WORD PACKS
Choose a built-in theme for a practice pack at your level. Built-in packs work offline.

PARENT-MADE LISTS
Paste this week's school words, separated by lines or commas. Review and edit the words before adding them; duplicates are removed. Tap "practice" and the same words read aloud with optional definitions you wrote yourself. Great for weekly spelling tests, pre-bee warm-ups, and ESL families who want their own word set.

INSTANT FEEDBACK + STREAKS
Today’s practice brings back words due for review and mixes in words at your chosen level. Results separate words spelled correctly on the first try from words completed after a retry. Progress shows independent recall across practice days, so parents can see what is sticking.
