Wonderful App with lots to do.it is user-friendly, my children can navigate it themselves without help. Information ranges from preschool up to third grade. Instrumental in teaching my children to read. 2022 update: they've added a 4th and fifth grade section, which I am grateful for. It is not as challenging for my 5th grader as I had hoped, and it has a few small glitches still that I'm sure they will iron out with time. So glad they expanded into the higher grade levels!

If you're like me and also homeschooling during the pandemic & you're on the fence, this is your sign: Get the membership. It is affordable and worth every penny. We love Starfall! The material isn't too easy, but it's also not more advanced than my daughter... so she is able to use it on her own if I need to step away for any reason. With other apps she either wasn't being challenged whatsoever, or she would get frustrated because she couldn't do it on her own.

I have used Starfall in the classroom for years! I love it and best of all...the students love it! It's very easy to use. I always recommend Starfall to parents at home (especially those struggling academically). I have paid $35 for years & it has NEVER gone up & that is cheap compared to other learning apps! I have used it at home with my kids since they were toddlers & they still love it! (Now 5 & 7 yrs)
