Your Child, the Phonics Hero!

Your child joins Zak, the superhero leader, on a mission through over 850 phonics games for ages 4–7. Along the way, they rescue superheroes, lock up baddies and take on Dr Lazybones, learning to read and spell as they go.

Dr Lazybones has locked up your child’s superhero friends: Flight, X-Ray, Stretch, Speedy, Strong and Invisibility. Each level practises six key phonics skills, and completing all six rescues a hero:

  • Knowing the sounds
  • Reading words
  • Spelling words
  • Reading camera (tricky) words
  • Spelling camera (tricky) words
  • Reading sentences

Part Two: lock up the baddies

Your child plays reading and spelling games to lock up the escaped baddies. These games teach the different ways to spell the same sound, for example ‘ai’ in ‘paid’ and ‘ay’ in ‘day’.

Part Three: defeat Dr Lazybones

Your child completes the phonics code and takes on Dr Lazybones, to be crowned the champion of reading and spelling!


Star Points, Hover Boots and a Secret Hideout

Every game earns star points. Children spend them in the star shop on hover boots, shields and lots more, then keep their goodies in their secret hideout. They can earn extra star points by finding Zak when he pops up in the games.

Hungry Tigers and Pesky Flies

The games are fun, lively and a little… kooky! Children feed hungry tigers, decorate lambs, swat pesky flies and more. Have a go at the games to see for yourself.

My son absolutely LOVES it! So far, he especially likes swatting the flies. Oh, and the ghosts… and being able to ‘buy’ some inline skates and a drumkit for his hideout!”
