Leiturinha and phonics: your child learns to read, one sound at a time
Learning to read is not memorising the alphabet. It is discovering that every letter has a sound. Domlexia trains that ability through play, for children ages 6 to 8, with or without dyslexia.
Free to download. No ads. No data collection.

Dyslexia: a reading game built by dyslexia specialists
Domlexia comes from Instituto Domlexia in Brazil, which has trained over 7,000 teachers in dyslexia and neurodiversity. The game uses systematic phonics: explicit instruction of each phoneme, repetition and instant feedback. It is the recommended path for a child with dyslexia, and it works just as well for children without dyslexia. Children with ADHD also do better in these short reading sessions. Domlexia supports reading, it does not diagnose dyslexia.
Learn to read in Brazilian Portuguese
