Recently Monkimun He launched lingokids, a app for kids between 2 and 6 years old focused on the youngest of the house learning English in a fun and enjoyable way. According to studies conducted by Monkimun, the project, designed by expert linguists and educators, enables children to learn twice as much vocabulary as in a traditional English class.
This application made in Spain I have found it very interesting and I think it is worth taking a look. Next I will tell you more.
Lingokids incorporates more than 3.000 words in English that children are constantly learning through interactive games. Elements such as colors, clothing or food are taught in the application through animated lessons with which the little ones interact thanks to the multimodal operation of the App (touch and shake). In this way, they learn the language naturally, becoming familiar with English just as they would if they heard that language every day.
According to Marieta de Viedma, co-founder of Monkimun, these advances occur because “Lingokids adapts to the level of children. To pass the lesson, each child must attend the instructions given in English, so understanding and learning the language becomes a fundamental need for them if they want to continue playing ”.
Lingokids also allows Parents know the progress of their children either through the curriculum, the section where the activity is recorded, or weekly thanks to a report that is sent to them from the application. In addition, taking into account the lesson in which each child is, the application will recommend to parents any support element (such as books, movies, cartoons ...) that allows them to reinforce with their child the concepts acquired that week to improve their learning .
The more exposed a child is to another language, the more likely they are to acquire it and become bilingual. With Lingokids, little ones learn English in a interactive context, awakening their curiosity in a classroom where there are no barriers and where, thanks to the new technologies. the traditional concept of learning is revolutionized, turning it into an activity adapted to their needs.
Lingokids is available from € 2.99 / month (depending on the subscription chosen) for iOS and Android devices through the App Store y Google Play.
