iOS Universel / Education
Spell Aid for kids (US | American Spelling) is the most Dyslexia friendly Children's Dictionary and Spell checker with Thesaurus and illustrations.
Unlike many other dictionary apps, Spell Aid for Kids is not just about words - it also contains pictures. Children today are used to information being presented in visual form and as a result they require their learning experiencing to be increasingly sophisticated.
What makes Spell Aid for Kids unique and so useful?
Well! It has often been said, “What use is a dictionary if I cannot spell?”.
Spell Aid Kids is the first dictionary app that really caters to the needs of a diverse set of users. It contains four different search methods and a fully customisable user interface. Whether a child struggles with spelling or speaks English as a second language, this app will make using a dictionary an enjoyable experience.
In addition to a conventional search facility, as well as searching by voice, Spell Aid also offers two bespoke methods for finding words. These methods allow a children to look up words based upon the letters they believe to be in the word, with an option that provides results regardless of the order of the letters.
Children who experience colour blindness can take advantage of the customisation features, selecting from a vast array of font styles, adjustment of font size, unlimited background and font colours, which all makes for a greater reading experience.
The Spell Aid Kids app gives children the independence and confidence in discovering unknown words and their definitions. It can also help to expand their vocabulary and improve spelling. Young readers and writers can look up the meanings of unfamiliar words as well as check for the correct spellings of any words they are unsure of. Users can also take advantage of the functionality to have the spellings of words read out, which is especially handy while doing written work or simply revising and memorising the correct spellings of words.
