My first 500 words

Bring language learning into everyday life in a simple and engaging way.

My First 500 Words is a Montessori-inspired app created for parents who want to support their child’s language and cognitive development.

With interactive cards, sounds, and images, learning becomes a natural part of the day – without pressure and in the spirit of play. The simple, intuitive interface allows children to use the app independently, while parents can feel confident knowing all content is safe and ad-free.

What’s inside the app?
• 25 practical thematic categories,
• 500 words in 7 languages: English, German, Italian, Spanish, French, Ukrainian, and Polish,
• Native speaker pronunciation recordings,
• Word sounds and immersive thematic soundscapes,
• Artistic collages and real photos of Montessori objects,
• Alphabet videos with sound,
• Quizzes to check knowledge,
• Beautiful, clear design,
• 100% safe, ad-free content.

Each word is presented in four ways – an illustration, a real photo, a sound, and a native-speaker pronunciation. Categories are enhanced with unique soundscapes, making learning an experience that engages both sight and hearing, helping words stick naturally.

Why it matters
Research shows that in the early years, the brain absorbs languages faster than at any other stage of life. This is the perfect time to build a rich vocabulary, get familiar with the sound of different languages, and develop strong communication skills.

My First 500 Words gives parents a proven tool to make the most of this precious time – in a way that is valuable, creative, and full of joy.
