My first letters on a tablet

How it works

  1. 1A letter appears with a dot showing exactly where to start.
  2. 2Your child drags along the guide — the stroke fills in behind their finger.
  3. 3Strokes come in the order handwriting is actually taught, one at a time.
  4. 4Wandering off the line pauses progress rather than failing the attempt.

What it builds

Learn to recognise every letter by shape and by sound, starting with the ones that appear most in a child's own name.

Nothing in my first letters can be lost or failed. A wrong answer stays on screen to try again, which is what keeps a two-year-old in the game long enough to learn from it.

Common questions

What age is My first letters for?+

It is pitched at 2 to 4 year olds, though children either side of that often enjoy it too. Nothing is timed, so a younger child can simply take longer.

Do I need to install anything?+

No. Kidling runs entirely in the browser on a phone, tablet or laptop. There is no app to download and no store account involved.

Is it free?+

You can play without an account. A subscription unlocks the full personalised plan, the weekly worksheet packs and progress tracking.

Are there ads?+

No. There is no advertising anywhere in the product and nothing that links a child out of it.
