READING fun New interactive learning website ABC Reading Eggs launches in the UK this August, with the the aim of helping your 4 to 8 year olds to learn and develop reading skills - while having fun! Our LF testers did a recce… Testers: Joanne 36, and Seren 5, from Penarth Verdict: Seren liked the look of the website and was keen to start using it as soon as she saw it. There was quite a lot of information on the home page but we soon found our way around it. We tried out a sample lesson and Seren was able to do all the games on her own and found them fun, although she needed some help from me to follow the instructions. Overall, it’s a nice activity to do together and educational too. www.readingeggs.com
