Where next after Teach your Monster to Read?

[EssentialHummus]

Not primary education exactly, but this seems the nearest fit.

DD is 3y8m. She's finished all of Teach your Monster (and seems to understand it all well - she reads things out and about all the time, reads quite complex words/sentences well, and understands/can talk about what she's reading). She's reading Songbirds with me and is up to what they call Stage 4 on that. (She's also doing the equivalent with DH in Russian - we're really delighted with how she's taken to reading.)

Where next? Is there another app to go onto that anyone would recommend / something else to keep her motivated?

I know, this being Mumsnet, that I'll be told my pre-schooler should be out playing in the mud and building forts - she does that plenty, I'm just looking to fill the 20 minute gap in our day where the monster game was.

If it's relevant she's not due to start school until 2022.

Reading Eggs is good, also helps with comprehension etc (since early readers often have a lag between their decoding and understanding). You do a test initially to determine where they start so they don't have to work through loads of material that is too easy for them.

Reading eggs is great for 3 year olds onwards (and maybe some 2yos but not mine!)

Reading Eggs is what we used.

Lovely, thanks all. lego that sounds ideal - I was worried about having to start from scratch so some sort of benchmarking being available is super.

If you want her to still do an educational game I'd look at spelling games as encoding is a complementary though separate skill to decoding.

Mostly just read with her though and not just reading scheme books. As another poster said, reading involves comprehension and vocabulary in addition to decoding skills and shared reading is the best way to develop this.

If you're looking for something different to reading, my DD aged 4 is getting on well with maths 3-5 on the iPad (not available on Android). We also use teach your monster, and maths 3-5 feels a bit like a maths equivalent.

Thanks south, thanks crabby. We read plenty of normal books - she likes the Alfie series and Dr Seuss especially - and she also likes the Wimmelbuch type (apologies, can't think of a translation...) where it's just a large book with quite intricate drawings and the same characters moving through their days on different pages where we can talk about the characters.

I'll download Reading Eggs and poke around, but perhaps the maths game crabby mentions is a good next step.
