Website to Learn English: Mobile English Learning for Kids in funenglishapps.com

 

Hey, there! Good day, isn’t it? Now I’d like to share another website to learn English, especially for kids. That is Fun English (funenglishapps.com). As I quoted from the website “Fun English combines a structured English language course with engaging and entertaining games. Our learning activities will keep your child occupied while introducing them to English words, sentences, spelling, phonics, reading and writing. Fun English is designed for kids from 3-10 years old, but older kids and adults will enjoy our English language learning games just as much.”

 

Unfortunately, this is not ‘really online learning’, you have to download the games and the materials. It is like an application store for English learning to kids. This website also provides some applications for iPad and iPhone. So, for those who got interested to download some English applications, this website is very good to visit.

Website to Learn English: Enrich Your Basic Vocabulary with learningchocolate.com

Hi, everybody! How’s life?  In this chance I want to share a website to enrich your basic vocabulary; Learning Chocolate. This is an English vocabulary learning platform. There are many categories that provide common English vocabulary in it such as basic, animals, body, clothing, community, food, holidays/celebrations, house, jobs, nature, people, school, sports/hobbies, transportation, and others.

Maybe this website is more suitable for kids who are learning Basic English vocabulary or beginners of English learning. But I think this website is good enough to add some new vocabs that you didn’t know before; even though the vocabs are very basic, we sometimes forget or didn’t know them, right?

Despite the basic thing in this website, I think it is good enough to go there and have new basic vocabulary from it.
