Calm toddler flashcards: first words & phrases. 8 languages, native voices.
About Their First Words
We made Their First Words for our daughters. Watching them learn and say their first words has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives. We wanted to make a calm, beautiful app where they could explore the languages around them and grow from first words into everyday phrases.
We poured our love and energy into every word, phrase, picture, and sound. We’re excited to share it with your family, and we hope it brings your children the same small, magical moments it has brought ours.
