Pip's Reading Rocket

Read words, blast asteroids! Early-reading arcade fun with Pip the fennec fox.

Read the word. Tap the picture. Blast the rock!

Words fall from space on friendly cartoon asteroids. Read the word, tap the matching picture, and fire your laser — every word is spoken aloud by a warm, lively voice, so early readers connect letters, sounds, and meaning with every shot.
