Built for parents, by parents
Small beginnings.
Something worth sharing.
We made Their First Words for our daughters. Hearing their first words made us want to build more calm ways for families to learn together.

One app became a family.
Words and phrases. Letters and reading. Numbers, puzzles, patterns, tidy-ups, typing, and places to explore. Today Their First is ten apps and activities, each with one simple thing to discover.
They are made for the small moments: a new word at breakfast, a few ducks to count, a story read side by side. Your attention and encouragement are the best part.
Good things should be easy to reach.
Nine are completely free, with every activity included. Their First Words includes 75 words and 35 phrases free, with one US $9.99 purchase to unlock all 1,000+ words and 500+ phrases in every language it speaks. No subscriptions, and no ads in any of our apps.
Some open right in your browser. Others are made for your phone or tablet. Each app page tells you what is inside and where it works.
Made with care.
We use illustration and voice tools to help make our learning materials, then check and refine them ourselves. Anything a child hears has been listened to by a person. We keep working on the details, and we listen when something could be better.
We hope you find something here that makes your next little moment together a good one.
