Outstanding!!

Homer has been a lot of fun. My grandson really likes it and goes to it very quickly. My one concern is that it is not guided like ABCMouse. It is primarily games. That's nice but the guidance from one topic to the next helps to grow skill on skill.

Homer vs ABC mouse

Having previously used ABC mouse I can say I think Homer is overall a better learning app for kids. The app seems to function better (ABC mouse was so slow that my daughter would get frustrated with how slow it was) Homer actually makes kids think whereas ABC mouse was a click and move on for a lot of activities. I felt like she wasn’t learning anything with ABC mouse unless I forced her to pay attention to the songs. Homer has a lot of great videos/games and I don’t have to force my daughter to pay attention. She enjoys using the app whereas she did not enjoy ABC mouse. It seems like the learning path is pretty repetitive with Homer though. I’m not sure if that’s because I’m in the free trial or not but they send me suggested activities to do that aren’t in the learning path so we have been doing those. I’ll be excited when I get my hands on activities box and we move on from the age 2 learning path.

My 4 year old loves the app

My 4 year old is enjoying the app. He has learnt ordinal numbers in first two days. I would like to move him up a level because he already knows what is being offered so far. The app is very well designed. The colors aren’t too bright , the sounds are pleasing, the music is soothing too. So far the academic content is well presented as well. The games are fun and have so much learning material. I highly recommend for kids who are reluctant to in your face learning. This fun system makes learning fun. Kudos to the team.

A Big Hit with the Little One

My daughter has absolutely loved the hands-on part of this. She likes playing the app as well, but the magnets, cards, and other learning materials entertain her for hours. The best part is- she's learning and doesn't even realize it!

HOMER is by far best and most engaging

I homeschooled six children to excellence (PhDs, engineer, teachers, nurse, Broadway...) and am now helping homeschool my grandchildren. I have tried many curriculums and assists including Hooked On Phonics, ABC Mouse, etc., but HOMER is by far the best and most engaging program we have tried. We look forward to HOMER growing with our kiddos. Thank you for all you do!

Wonderful Learning Tool

We have been using HOMER as a learning tool for our 3 year old son for about 2 weeks now. Overall, we really like it and feel it is a wonderful learning tool. He gets more comfortable using it each day and genuinely seems to enjoy it. We would strongly recommend HOMER to any family who is looking for an tool to help either prepare their child for pre-school or kindergarten.

Just Okay. Money better spent elsewhere

It was nice, but definitely not enough content for the cost. We switched to ABC mouse which has a lot more content, a well mapped out learning path, and a rewards system. My 2 year old wasn't challenged enough with Homer's 2 year old content. Would be great if you are just starting to learn shapes and colors however.
