If you have kids that are Pre-K or even Kinder, chances are they are learning their sight words. I have a Kindergarten student this year who is learning his. He’s coming along well, thanks to extra worksheets and time spent with him on the weekends.

I also supplement his homework with Educational Apps – though we do limit their screen time, I don’t feel as bad limiting him on these apps as they are all great resources to help him pick up things a little faster.

So we thought we should share our favorite 5 apps for helping them with their Sight Words and writing skills:
