Begin met Praat WeerThree tiny activities straight from the app. Turn your sound on and hand the screen to your child.
Every lesson follows the same happy rhythm — the way reading is taught in the best classrooms.
Leo says a new sound. Your child hears it, sees the letter and learns how their mouth makes it.
They trace the letter with a finger, then play quick games — pop balloons, go fishing, build words.
Sounds blend into real words, then into little stories made only from sounds they already know.
Lessons sit on a colourful map. Each one unlocks the next, so your child always knows what's coming — and always wants one more.
Built by a teacher. Designed to feel like play.
Balloon pop, sound fishing, word building, word search and more — all spoken in Afrikaans.
Finger-tracing for every letter and sound pair, with a green start dot.
A natural Afrikaans neural voice reads every sound, word and story aloud.
