I’m really excited to share with you an awesome reading app for kids that we just discovered! Speakaboos is the reading app for kids ages 2-6 that turns screen time into reading time. If your kids are like mine, they LOVE screen time. We limit screen time at our house, but I do let them play educational games. This app is one that I feel great about because it encourages my children to read!
- Speakaboos contains over 200 stories! They have these options while reading: Read to Me, Read & Play, and Read it Myself.
- The stories in each categories have awesome illustrations, animated characters, and touchscreen interactions that bring favorite and new stories to life.
- Speakaboos has popular characters kids love such as Sesame Street, Thomas & Friends, Sid the Science Kid, Angelina Ballerina and more.
- Unlike many other entertaining apps and websites, Speakaboos is available offline! Kids can enjoy their favorite stories and read any time, anywhere. (This is awesome for car rides or on the airplane!)
- This app really motivates children to read. There are well-loved children’s books (ie. Where the Wild Things Are) as well as cute original stories!
My kids really love this app! It didn’t take long for them to fall in love with it. We can play it on our iPad or on the computer.
My 4-year-old and 6-year-old loved the app. We laughed so hard on some of the stories and they thought it’s awesome to read these stories!
This app is designed to motivate children to read anytime or anywhere! Speakaboos can be used on computers, tablets or mobile devices. Speakaboos is available to download for mobile devices though iTunes for iOS, Google Play for Android and Speakaboos.com for the web.

We’ve got three girls, 1, 4, and 5. I haven’t used technology in teaching them to read so far, but I’d love to give this a try!
With two kids learning to read, this would be an awesome app to have!
As a bilingual teacher, many of my kiddos don’t have internet access- this would provide additional reading opportunities, and an extra resource 🙂
I’m helping teach my four-year-old granddaughter to read and she would love this app to hear stories and then read herself! Thank you!
I run a home daycare and part of my curriculum includes preschool learning for my 3-5 year olds. I’m always on the lookout for a new way to teach them and keep them engaged!
I’d love to win a subscription for my 2 yr old. I’m going to start homeschooling him this fall, my husband works a lot of hours, and we are far away from family so iPad is he only downtime I get some days. It’d be lovely to have an educational app like this!
Thanks for sharing this awesome app! I’m a speech-language pathologist and this would be great for my clients. I hope I win!!!
I have a four year old who refuses to try to read, but she likes to be on the computer. I think this would help us both.
This sounds great! My kids will surely love it, because they love books and some of the books, mentioned here are amongst their favorites:)
Super excited to learn about this!
i love for special needs children.
We would love to use this for our 5yo and twin 3yo as one just started to read and the other two are working on letter sounds but love to be read to. This looks like a balanced approach to reading with fun and technology.
My grandchildren, ages 3 and 5 would love this app. As a retired educator, I would love it too!
I am looking for things to keep my 3 year old and 6 year old busy all summer! I think they would love it!!
I am a teacher of early and advanced readers. I loved using speakaboos with my kids. Now that I have a wide range of ability with my kids I really appreciate the different reading options available. Would love this!
This sounds Perfect for my daughter! Thank you so much for the opportunity to win!
Looks really good. Is the voice UK or US English please?
It’s US English.
Thanks x
This would be great for my kids. They love their Ipad and their reading.
My 3 1/2 year old loves to read … but she also loves to play apps on her daddy’s phone. So winning this subscription would be the best of both worlds!
I have two toddlers and they love when I read books to them. This app would great for us to learn and read together.
Would love to win this subscription for my 3 year old girl, as the app will be a delightful addition to her current reading materials (online read aloud videos and the usual storybooks).
My daughter is 4 and enjoys reading. I think she would enjoy this app.
I am a children’s librarian and I have an almost 3 year old daughter. I would love to have free access to this for a year! Thank you!!
Will be moving grade level next school year and this app would be a GREAT addition for my students who are starting out learning to read. Hoping that this would also help my struggling readers, as well as students that are on their way independently.
I let my girl try the trial and she refuse to stop. I would love to get to win the chance for free 1 year subscription, thanks for the sharing!
My 6 year old son would love this for his tablet! I always encourage reading!
This is a great app to encourage reading.
This sounds like a really great app for children! It’s so important to seek learning methods that capture their attention and make learning fun, and apps, games, and online activities are a great way to do that! Nice post! Thanks for sharing!
This is really very nice App for kids which is very unique and fun loving for kids and I appreciate your idea which is very awesome and wonderful.
