Even my 4 years old nephew is thrilled when playing around even though he doesn't understand any of it- yet. What I also appreciate about the program is that it has recording feature and other fun exercises like karaoke- my kids can practice their pronunciation in the dictionary as well as having fun recording their own singing. They learn English- just in a very fun way! Check out Mingoville channel on Youtube as well- fun videos.. Yes- it’s an excellent online English program for kids indeed.

I spent a few hours exploring and can really say with confidence this is what we've all been waiting for - in terms of a FREE, online learning environment for young learners. You really hit the jackpot with this and I've contacted them to see if I can help promote the portal. I say it is so good a) because of the basic topics and creative use of color/character b) functionality is awesome, intuitive -- just hit NEXT when you hear the little clack c) audio included d) goal/task oriented where students complete missions which show up in their book The only thing missing is networking/discussion but I really see this as a separate feature for more mature learners.....they get it right, "it's about "education" stupid".... Thanks for the gold. David http://eflclassroom.ning.com Larry,

This is pure gold! I spent a few hours exploring and can really say with confidence this is what we’ve all been waiting for – in terms of a FREE, online learning environment for young learners. You really hit the jackpot with this and I’ve contacted them to see if I can help promote the portal.

The only thing missing is networking/discussion but I really see this as a separate feature for more mature learners…..they get it right, “it’s about “education” stupid”…. Thanks for the gold.
