There are plenty of activities to choose from. Starfall offers lots of math games that make learning math concepts fun and motivate him to want to do more fun practice of skills.

Math songs help him remember different concepts. He is also counting to 20 and using simple math such as adding numbers. The six year old is learning letter sounds and using them in short words. It brings you to a list of letters, words, or combinations, and then after those skills are mastered, the student proceeds to the books that feature those letters or word combinations for more practice. The six year old got to choose the avatar features and dress it up and then both boys worked together on answering the questions about items in the room or various rooms of the house.Ī nice feature of Starfall is the dashboard filled to the brim with learning opportunities. Because there is only one account per household, there is only one avatar to share. The calendar feature also asks the kids a few questions about what day of the week and other questions that helps them get familiar with reading and using the calendar.Īnother fun personalizing feature of Starfall is the avatar. My boys changed the border for the holiday and marked the weekends stamped with stars. The calendar lists the main holidays each month, and then you can add items, such as students can dress it up with the provided border options and stamps or print and color it. This was a fun exercise to see and learn more about the days and months. The first thing the kids did each day they worked on the program was view the interactive calendar. It is accessible 24/7 and we used it on weekdays as a supplement to our curriculum and weekends if the kids requested to play on it.

We worked on this review of Starfall during January and February. Though they had to share the same dashboard (as families are only given one account), each boy enjoyed different aspects of the program.

I used The Starfall Home Membership with both my six year old and nine year old sons. Be sure to check out their curriculum if you are looking for a helpful resource.
