What people are saying:
AppStruck:
"The whole app is delightful to behold. Bright background colors are juxtaposed against equally bright and scribbly child-like artwork that convey the word being spelled. You and your child will enjoy tracing your finger along those necessary building blocks of language. With its memorable artwork and way cool physics engine, it is sure to entertain and teach your child."
A Touch of Learning:
“Its got an intuitive interface for young children. It has high quality graphics and effects. I have no hesitation in recommending this app for children ready to start learning to write. To me, this is exactly the sort of app I am looking for in my quest to have apps that are fun, but teach my kids something really useful in the real world.”

Customer Reviews
Brilliant, my nephew loves it
Jack quickly learned how to use my I phone, quicker than me! So I had to have something for him to use. I had a look at all sorts of educational apps and most were deleted quickly because they did nothing, he learned nothing, and got bored quickly.
With iWriteWords he keeps going, occasionally I can hear a tut when he gets it wrong but mostly he's dancing and laughing because he's got it right and he can get rid of the letters and go on to the next word.
great app!
This app helps a lot with my little friends' attention to task and fine motor skills. I just wish you can choose which letters to practice or a have a 'random letters' option.
Please have app say the word after child is done writing the letters!
Revised - Thank you for adding the update with the words spoken as well as the letters but I wish you used the same voice used to speak the letters to say the words because that voice is much clearer. Would love to see the words for "one" through "ten" added. Also I love the idea for writing numbers that another reviewer had mentioned.
We love this app but think it needs one last thing. Please have the app say the word the child has just spelled out. For example, if the sun is written then have the app say each letter again "s", "u", "n" then the full word "sun". That would make this a five star app.
