About this app

Milo: Learn to Read & Write takes children aged 3 to 7 from their very first letters to reading short stories and writing their own sentences, one small step at a time. Milo the kitten speaks every instruction, so children who can't read yet can play on their own.

START FREE
The free plan is a complete start, not a demo:
• Letters: capital and small letters, matching them, spotting the letter that is different, the alphabet train and 52 everyday words
• Letter sounds: hear the sound of all 26 letters in real words
• Lines and shapes: 9 pre-writing strokes to warm up little hands
• Tracing letters: the first 6 capital letters (L, E, F, H, T, I) with real stroke order
• The parent dashboard, stickers, trophies and the islands map

UNLOCK MILO PRO
Milo Pro opens the whole learning path, for every child on the device:
• Rhymes and sounds: rhyming, clapping syllables, first and last sounds
• Blending: word families, reading short words, and sounds like sh, ch, th and ck
• Tricky words: read, spell and fill in the common sight words that don't follow the rules
• Sentences: read a sentence and match it to a picture, put the words in order, and vowel teams like ee and ai
• Stories: read along with Milo, answer questions about the story and put it in order
• All 26 capital and 26 small letters to trace
• Letters with less help, then letters on their own
• Writing words: copy them, then write words Milo says
• Writing sentences: copy them, then write sentences Milo reads out
• Free writing: draw a picture, choose its name and write it
• Reading-aloud recordings of your child in the Stories stage

HANDWRITING WITH REAL STROKE ORDER
Milo shows how each letter is formed, then the guide fades until your child writes alone. Milo checks where each stroke starts, which way it goes and the order, and shows the right way when it goes wrong. Left-handed mode included.

LESSONS THAT FIT YOUR CHILD
Every lesson is short and made for your child. Milo keeps practising what is still new, brings back what is starting to be forgotten, and opens the next exercise only when your child is ready. A mistake gets another try and a helping hand, never a telling-off.
