iGameMom comments:

Learn with Homer is a comprehensive reading program for preschool and kindergarten kids. Kids will learn to recognize letters, the sound of letters, and to blend of sounds of letters to form words. Although the developers are still adding new contents to the app, with what it has, it is a good learning program integrating multi-disciplines with good progress planning.  It is a good program to get on if you have a preschool kid who just start to learn letters.

    It’s good to know about the Learn With Homer program. Isn’t it amazing what technology can do nowadays. I find that a good combination of Tech learning and proven but old fashioned techniques work best, especially when it comes to teaching your child to learn to read. I can highly recommend this program for any parent who wants to teach their child to read and supplement the techno learning too.

    Looking forward to more good reviews and posts. Thanks!
