Sound Detective

Detective Bunny found a clue. Say its name slowly and listen to the very first sound. Which picture starts the same way?

Nini is helping today. A round songbird who loves listening to every little sound.

Play together with a grown-up. Sounds play after you tap. No timers, no losing.

What your child practises

  • Phonics (first sounds)
  • Listening
  • Vocabulary

Hear the FIRST SOUND of a word and find another word that starts with the same sound (phonemic awareness), before linking sounds to letters.

Good for: about 3–5 years. It adapts by itself. Grown-ups can also choose:

  • 🌱 Discover: 2 pictures, very different sounds
  • 🌿 Practice: 3 pictures
  • 🌳 Challenge: 4 pictures, and the sound’s letter is shown as a clue

Play together, then off-screen

On screen: Play three rounds of Sound Detective and say each clue word slowly together.

Away from the screen: "I spy something that starts like ball…": take turns finding things that start with the same first sound.
