FAQ

How do kids learn to read so fast playing this game?

The Fidget game: Sight Words uses a multisensory and game-based approach to learning; this has been proven to improve knowledge and understanding by 90% in children. 98% of our customers reported their children improved reading skills within three weeks of playing this game.

Why is multisensory learning so important?

Multisensory activities are based on whole-brain learning, encouraging learners to use more than one of their senses when taking in new information. Educational researchers have found that using more senses while learning to read increases word recognition and improves memory by 90%.

What are Dolch and Fry words, and why are they beneficial to learn?

Dolch and Fry words are two popular lists of high-frequency English words that young readers are encouraged to learn by sight. Dolch words consist of 220 basic sight words commonly found in children's books, while Fry words are a list of 1,000 words frequently used in educational materials. These words make up about 95% of the words found at each grade level, helping children improve reading fluency and comprehension by reducing the need to decode each word, making reading easier and more enjoyable.

Why don't fidget mats have letters on them?

Fidget mats for this game are designed as a fun, interactive way to reinforce reading by focusing on sight words instead of individual letters. Using the mats for multisensory play, children pop as many bubbles as they can while learning new sight words. The goal is for kids to recognize and read entire words quickly, building fluency and comprehension. The popping mats also serve as a reward system for correct answers, keeping kids engaged and motivated as they master each level!

Is this game designed just to memorize sight words?

No, this game goes beyond simple memorization. It’s aligned with the Science of Reading and uses the Heart Word method, teaching kids which parts of a word they need to know by heart and which parts can be sounded out. We incorporate decoding symbols on each word to support this learning approach.

Is this game better than learning to read on the iPad?

Yes! Research from Stanford University shows that students who learn to read using print materials, rather than screens, develop significantly faster reading rates and stronger fluency and comprehension skills. This hands-on game offers an engaging, screen-free way to reinforce reading skills, making it an even more effective tool for learning.
