GAMES

Timmy’s First Words in English includes three bite-size and age-appropriate games that are designed by British Council English teaching experts to provide hours of high-quality learning content for your child and challenge them as they progress.

• In Balloon Pop, your child will practise counting, identify shapes and objects by colour and have fun popping the balloons

• In Magic Box, your child will be guided by the narrator to practise categorising items by type and colour as they place them in the box. The game gets more challenging as we introduce a variety of shapes, colours and numbers, requiring your child to spot the differences between objects.

• In Rub-a-Dub, your child will swipe away feathers, buttons or paint to identify objects hidden beneath. They start with single objects and build up to more complex phrases as they advance.
