Questions parents ask
What is the difference between the pre-K and kindergarten pages?
Kindergarten games ask a little more: reading single words, numbers past 10, remembering a longer sequence, and games with rules and a winner. Everything on the pre-K page is still available here; the extra games are the step up.
Are these games safe?
Yes. No pop-ups, no chat, no sign-up, no purchases. Nothing on the site talks to strangers or collects a child's details.
Can two children play together?
Several can: Four in a Row, Tic-Tac-Toe and Snakes & Ladders have a two-player mode on the same screen, so siblings can share a tablet.
Do they work on a school iPad?
Yes — they are plain web pages, so they work on managed school devices without an app store, a login or a download. Teachers can find more on the page for teachers.
About these games
What they practise and where to go next
›
Kindergarten is the year reading and numbers start to click, and these games are built around that: the first 300 sight words, number bonds to 10, patterns, and the confidence to try something and get it wrong. They are still tap-and-drag games — no typing, no reading instructions — but the challenge steps up from the pre-K set.
It is also the age when children start to enjoy games with rules: taking turns, planning a move, winning and losing gracefully. So alongside the learning games you will find the first real classics — Four in a Row, Snakes & Ladders, Memory — plus the arcade favourites (Whack-a-Mole, Fruit Catcher) that a five-year-old can actually beat.
What they practise
- Number bonds to 10 and 20, before-and-after, counting in 2s
- Sight words, letter sounds, missing letters, rhymes
- Patterns and sequences
- Planning and turn-taking in first board games
- Sorting: recycling, shapes, socks — categories and rules
- Fine motor control: tracing lowercase letters and numbers
