Free FS1 Learning Games (Ages 3–5)
Young children learn through play, repetition and lots of encouragement. These gentle games use big buttons, pictures and sound so children aged 3 to 5 can play with a grown-up nearby and build early learning skills without pressure. (FS1 is also called Foundation Stage 1, or Pre-KG in some schools.)

Focus on short sessions of five to ten minutes, celebrate every match and rhyme, and talk about what your child sees on the screen. Those conversations matter as much as the game itself.
- Early reading: Hearing rhymes, recognising first sight words like “the”, “and” and “is”, and matching words to pictures.
- Thinking skills: Memory, concentration and taking turns, all practised in memory matching games.
- Number sense: Counting objects, recognising small numbers and noticing patterns in everyday play.
