Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.

Are you looking for a great learn-to-read curriculum? Do you have a child that needs more reinforcement in their phonics?  Are you trying to find an educational app for them to use during their screen time? Or maybe you are looking for a program to supplement your current reading curriculum? We have used Reading Eggs and Mathseeds from Reading Eggs since our very first year of homeschooling. It is a versatile online program that a wide range of children can use. 

Reading Eggs - Online Program for Learning to Read #learntoread #readingeggs

Reading Eggs and Mathseeds is an online program that is for ages 2-12. You can access it through an app or a browser.

Reading Eggs Junior

My youngest son, who is 2, uses Reading Eggs Junior. It is designed for ages 2-4. My son loves watching the fun videos that teach him a variety of skills and it is great for learning beginning reading skills. There are read-aloud books, alphabet games, songs and phonemic awareness activities.  My son really enjoys watching the videos, including a cute one about a tractor.

Reading Eggs

My 5 year old son throughly enjoys Reading Eggs. It is for ages 3-7. Through various educational activities, your child will learn how to become a confident reader.  They is a wide variety of interactive activities to make learning to read fun and engaging. My son really enjoys earning rewards. He loves earnign golden eggs so that he can buy items to add to his home.

Math Seeds

My 5 year old and 8 year old use Math Seeds as a fun addition to their math curriculum. It is great at practising their math skills. Math Seeds is for ages 3-9 and it is pack full of fun educational math games to help build your children’s math skills.

Reading Eggspress

My 8 year old son is now starting to use Reading Eggspress, as it is for children ages 7-13. It includes a placement test followed with lots of great reading activities. There are literacy games and online children’s books.

Fast Phonics

Both my 5 year old and 8 year old enjoyed the newer program, Fast Phonics. It is for children agree 5-10. My sons loved the novelty of climbing different mountain peaks to earn prizes.

There are 20 levels where your child learns phonic skills including letter-sound recognition, blending and spelling.  Each level (or peak) has over 20 activities and includes decodable books.  After reading each book, your child will complete a comprehension quiz.

Tracking Progress and Worksheets

There is also a great parent interface so you can track your child’s progress through the programs along with hundreds of worksheets. However, since Fast Phonics is new, the tracking is not quite ready to be used.  

Our Recommendation

The amount of resources and activities in Reading Eggs and Mathseeds from Reading Eggs is endless.  It is perfect for any level of reader from ages 2-12, and I highly recommend it for your home.  Even if you don’t homeschool, I would recommend Reading Eggs is a great educational tool to help encourage your child to read and practise their reading skills.  Be sure to check out what other Homeschool Review Team members have to say.

I saw that quote while scrolling Facebook and I just had to share it with you. 

Do you have a special quote to share? Comment below so we can start a thread of virtual pick-me-ups!
Raise your hand if 2021 looked anything like the p Raise your hand if 2021 looked anything like the plans you made for it at the end of last year! Yeah? Me neither. What a year.. But you know what? I never would have guessed we would be where we are today.  2021 has taught us that adaptation is the key to making it in an ever-changing world. What unexpected lessons shaped your 2021 vision? And what’s in the plans for 2022?
It sometimes seems nearly impossible to escape the It sometimes seems nearly impossible to escape the chaos of life. Yet, the past couple weeks have been so relaxing. December and January are a slower months on the ranch, and we have been enjoying working on puzzles, watching Christmas movies, doing the daily chores and playing in the snow. Today is our last “holiday day” and we are back to regular routine tomorrow. How do you find a serene escape when you need one this time of year?
Here are 3 things that are making our life easier Here are 3 things that are making our life easier right now: 1. @carhartt winter jackets, 2. iPhones and an iMac to keep track of all our ranch records, and 3. our wild rags from @ranch_life_wild_rags . We truthfully couldn’t get through this season of life in the winter without these 3! Are we missing anything?
