I have a 5 year old. Can anyone recommend any good apps/ iPad games that can help her with her phonics and learning to read? Happy to pay if necessary, but free ones always appeal! Thank you.

Teach your monster to read although this may only be PC based.

Collins Big Cat have 8 free apps based on some of their books at pink / red/ yellow / blue level. collinsbigcat.com/apps. They are brilliant - you can read the story & write your own.
