Countville


Countville is a 100% free farming game for kids with the added bonus of counting. Kids can learn number recognition and counting up to 10 while building a beautiful farm. They can learn the different steps involved in making a chicken coop, cow pasture, fish pond, onion farm, carrot farm, apple orchard, and lettuce farm. Each step or task is based on counting with colorful graphics to keep the children involved. Hence, it is an interesting and enjoyable way for preschoolers and kindergarten kids to learn number recognition and counting while playing their most favorite game i.e. farming.
The farming tasks are easy for little fingers with vibrant, animated graphics and the cute farmer girl is always there to help throughout each step with vocal guidance.
​Building the different structures on the farm is not the only thing the wonderful game offers. Once a structure has been completed such as an apple orchard, kids can visit their marvelous apple orchard to pick a certain number of apples. They can collect eggs from the chicken coop, fill up milk bottles from the cows, catch fish from the pond and harvest onions, carrots and lettuce all the while absorbing in their little minds the concept of counting. What a fantastic way to learn to count while doing such enjoyable tasks!

Jolly Phonics Group 1

Free Jolly Phonics Group 1 worksheets (s, a, t, i, p, n) According to Oxford Dictionary, phonics is a "method of teaching people to read by correlating sounds with symbols in an alphabetic writing system". In simple words, each letter of the alphabet has a sound. Instead of teaching young children the names of these alphabets, the sounds are taught. For example "a" makes the sound /a/...this is exactly the sound that comes from your mouth in the beginning when you say the word " apple " or " ant ". The letter "a" makes a different sound in words like " arm " and " ate " but these rules are taught later.  Jolly Phonics is a synthetic phonics system where all the letters of the alphabet have been split into seven groups. Each group contains 6 letters or their combinations so a total of 42 sounds are taught. What do I mean by a combination of letters? Remember that the combination of letters "s" and "h...

Free Jolly Phonics Group 2 worksheets (c/k, e, h, r, m, d) Hello Friends, I am back with another set of worksheets for helping children learn their phonics sounds. As you might already know, I am a strong proponent of the Jolly Phonics system of synthetic phonics sounds. Jolly Phonics system follows a particular order of teaching alphabet sounds in which there are seven groups. The following image shows the seven groups of Jolly Phonics along with an extra group taught by my Phonics app on Google Play Store. My app called  Phonics Fun  is 100% Free so you can download it and use it on all your Android devices.  It teaches all the letter sounds and different phonics rules and follows the pattern of Jolly Phonics but it is available for free. It is the perfect way to master phonics as you can hear phonics sounds and also test learning by playing many matching games. Coming back to printable Jolly phonics worksheets, I have already published worksheets for practicing...

Jolly Phonics Flash Cards

Gone are the days of A for apple, B for Ball...this is the time of synthetic phonics where each alphabet has a sound. Now, you don't teach children the name of the letter but the sound made by the letter. A has the sound that comes when we say the word apple, b has the sound that comes when we say bed, and so on and so forth. There are different systems of synthetic phonics but I have felt that Jolly Phonics is the best system. In fact, I made my first mobile app for my son based on the Jolly Phonics style of teaching. However, I know that many people want to limit screen exposure for their children so I decided to make these flashcards.  You can use these flashcards independently or you can use them along with my app called Phonics Fun , available on the Google Play Store. You can hear the sounds from my app. Practice using these flashcards and then, test learning using my app too...a win-win situation :) The Jolly Phonics flash cards are double-sided. I have told you in my previ...
