I partnered with this brand for product and/or compensation in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

Did you know that 5 million children have learned to read using Hooked on Phonics? The award-winning Hooked on Phonics Learn to Read program follows the Learn, Practice, Read approach which is a proven, simple and fun method to give kids a strong foundation in phonics and reading skills. The program is based off research, approved by the Children’s Reading Foundation, and is designed in conjunction with leading educators, renowned authors and most importantly parents. Each lesson runs about 20 minutes long.

Most people think of Hooked on Phonics as the big ole’ physical kit of reading goodness. Well Hooked on Phonics has kept up the times and also released a digital edition via Windows, Mac, iOS, Android and Kindle. It is geared towards kindergartners and 1st graders with over 200 songs, games, lessons and eBooks. The app will even sync with your child so they can pick up their place no matter the time or device they are on. Kids earn trophies for completing lessons, and each lesson is capped off with an eBook specially designed for kids to read on their own. Three kids at a time can be registered and progress is tracked individually.

Check here for a 10-day trial for $1 of the digital edition of Hooked on Phonics.

If you are looking for the traditional Hooked on Phonics Learn to Read Kit, it is also available. This kit is geared towards ages 3 to 8 years old (Pre-K through 2nd grade.) So this version lasts longer for your child since it starts earlier for them and it includes not only the paper copies of materials but also access to the full digital version. As much as I am a paper and pencil kinda girl, I do love technology, so I love that this version includes both. You never know too what will work best with your child until you try it, so why not have as many options as you can for them!

• 28 Original Storybooks
• 8 Bonus Books written by award-winning children’s book authors and illustrators
• 8 Workbooks
• 8 DVDs filled with music videos and fun introductions to each lesson
• 8 Sets of Stickers to celebrate reading success
