Heart Words Flash Card Game

Heart Words helps your child practice the high-frequency and irregular words that trip up early readers. Choose a word set, practice together as a family, and build reading confidence one card at a time.

Ages 3 through 7

Word sets for pre-k, kindergarten, and 1st grade. Letters, numbers, sight words, and heart words matched to your child's level.

Parent-led practice

An adult shows each card while your child reads aloud. You decide if they got it right — no screens in your kid's face.

5 minutes, real results

Short daily sessions build lasting habits. The app tracks streaks and marks words as mastered after 5 correct answers in a row.

See it in action

A flash card your child can focus on.

No clutter, no distractions. Just a big, clear word on screen. Your child reads it aloud, you tap the result, and the next card appears. It's the simplest way to build reading confidence.

What's included
