Learning a new language's sounds takes lots of listening and trying. SoundSprout makes that a small, friendly daily habit.
Choose the sound that's new
Parents choose one sound at a time. TH, R, V, SH, CH, S, Z and blends are common choices for children whose first language is Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, Arabic and many others.
Clear, consistent models
Every word is spoken by the same warm American-English narrator before your child tries it.
No pressure, no scoring
SoundSprout rewards effort. It doesn't grade accents or pronunciation, and children's voices aren't recorded.
For Spanish-speaking families
We have parent guides in Spanish explaining the English sounds that are hardest for Spanish speakers.
SoundSprout is guided daily practice for one speech sound: ten words, about five minutes, with a warm voice modeling every word. Up to five children per account.
