Seriously love this app. After extensive research on the best educational app for toddlers, I downloaded Khan Academy for my three year old son. I am so happy I did! I allow him thirty minutes a day, with and without me at times, and he plays in the app with joy. I am amazed at what he is able to do and how much he has learned. I love that it touches on so many different subjects and teaches in many different ways. All age appropriate. I also love the ability to use offline as we have a 13 hour car ride to visit family every year— this will allow him to interact with the app and learn while we drive versus watching movies all day. I am just so thrilled I found this and love that it is free so that truly any child can have access to a great learning tool! This app will grow with my son and I hope it continues to foster his love for learning.

Great kids learning app. We’ve been using khan academy for a few weeks now and are really impressed. All the content is the same as these pre-k and kindergarten workbooks I bought for my 5 year old, yet he had no interest in the workbooks, but when I introduced him to khan academy he was instantly engaged and asking to spend more time doing the exercises and activities through the app. The way it’s set up is fun for kids, and there are prizes they can collect as they complete different activities. My son loves bugs, and it happens that one of the prize options is always a big choice, so he loves that! There’s a large library of books to choose from, which khan partners with National Geographic to bring many kids science books to the app. The only downside is a child won’t learn how to hold a pencil/pen for that fine motor skill, but that is pretty minor in comparison to everything else they will learn through the app. I just add in additional non-screen time activities to help my kids fine motor skills, and I feel like they are getting a well rounded education.

Inconsistent and confusing, with unclear instructions. My child is 3.5, her teachers all whisper to me in hushed tones that she’s smart/gifted, and she can’t follow this app, and tosses the tablet down. The app immediately begins with random activities, without building on basics first. I thought maybe I had waited too long to start my child with a learning app, so I changed her age from 3 down to 2, in case it was a readiness thing. Listening to the activities, I wondered if she would understand how to move objects on the screen, or understand what the instructions were saying. So I went into the menu and changed it to an alphabet activity. I selected the uppercase A one; at first it was asking to pop any bubbles with the letter A in it, praising successes and gently correcting any mishaps. So far so good. Then the second round asked to pop any bubbles with the letter C. ……..what? Let’s master the letter A before we start thinking about any other letters. I will be deleting and trying something else.

Yes our two favorite things together!. I downloaded this app just happy to have a free progressive learning app, but what I found was our favorite songs mixed into a great learning app. If your child loves super simple songs you are going to love this app! All the games and activities are based on different songs from the super simple song group! Best of all the books they have actually highlight each word as it’s read. I can’t tell you how many book or academy apps I’ve tried and have been so disappointed with because it lacks that simple function! This is a free app so if your child wants to have fun, sing silly songs, read and learn simply then you have no excuse for not downloading this app! Way to go Khan and Super Simple Songs!

WOW!!!. Thank you Khan academy kids, you saved us! We’ve used ABC mouse and other apps but this is by far the best one! There are so many resources and tools to use that help parents and kiddos, with daily routines and learning paths. From printouts to planning a picture friendly schedule for the children to see very day and follow, it’s been a lifesaver. We lost so much learning time during the pandemic and our preschool days suffered. Now we’re having to catch up before elementary school and Khan academy is our biggest ally! I almost wasted thousands of dollars on Sylvan learning, but I’ve already seen a massive improvement in my children’s learning from just one week of using the app. It took a moment to get used to the buttons and how to navigate or repeat the questions, as the instructions aren’t very clear, but once you get that part out of the way, the children can easily navigate through each lesson and actually enjoy it! I have to limit their lesson time rather then them tell me they don’t want to do any more lessons. It’s been a wonderful tool to use on our supplemental home learning.

Stands far above all the others.. There is one simple reason this is the best app for children. You’ll notice no in-app purchases. Personally I think this should be a requirement. What a shame how we place our young children in a position to crave more placed behind a pay wall. That’s not fun and stress destroys eduction. You’re teaching them something else entirely. Not this app here. What a pleasant surprise so much so that it’s my requirement. No in app purchases on a learning app. Good luck searching this seems to be it. It’s a wonderful app because of this and my two year son has indeed learned from using this app. In particular matching pairs and sequencing as well as counting up and down and some alphabetical teaching

Great pre-k tool. There’s always a huge learning curve with first borns and this app has helped me bridge that gap. My child was proficient with the alphabet, counting to 30, colors, and shapes prior to using this app. However, it has become more difficult to work one on one with my child after the birth of my second child. This app has helped refine their current skill set. He has the freedom to choose different lessons at his whim. Also, it’s opened a new world of other lessons that he had previously shown little to no interest in before. The songs on here have helped them in non academic ways such as create more of an interest in things like bathing and dressing himself which I had not been able to get him interested in trying before. My child is very academically inclined but it’s hard to get him interested in learning life skills. So having this app is a great tool in a parents teaching arsenal.

Educational, informative, keep’s kids interest. I thought I will never let my kid get on any apps but I don’t mind my daughter using this app. She is 5 and going to start kindergarten. Last six months or so I got her to do books, play with interlocking blocks, do free hand drawings etc once she started to write, read and draw I thought to introduce technology. It was hard to decide upon what app to use. I tried IXL app first that is good but more my daughter got bored a little as it had a lot of repetitive concepts more applicable more towards older kids. Then I came across Khan academic app. My daughter likes it a lot. She likes how those characters provide her feedback, each exercise starts with an example, it nudges her nicely and correct herself with useful clues. This app is helping her get independent and confident in her knowledge. Kids learn by making mistakes and giving information about correcting them by providing a good context and that is what I see happening when my daughter uses it. This is free so I am very grateful to people who created it. It is a very good resource and I agree that kids who don’t go to expensive prek programs and are behind their peers when they start.

A Needed App for young ones:. I download certain educational apps in my 5 year old granddaughter’s iPad (which I’m using now) due to blocking almost everything besides what’s appropriate for her age. She is in the moderate stage of Autism but her reading skills of sight words is at a level of a second grader. She loves reading a book and listening to the audio’s and searching through the Library of this app. I find this app keeping her attention longer with other learning skills that is needed and helpful for her. She feels a sense of learning on her OWN which is very important to her. She allows no one to help her which is a problem. So a Educational app as this helps with several learning skills such as reading, math, opposites, less than, more, equal. Just a fun app fun of Happy Learning. One note - l notice I am not that clear of certain settings of the parent guide section. But I am pleased you have it. Lol Thank you

Screen time can be useful!. Let me start by saying I am blown away by the content on this app. I can’t believe it’s free! I’m thankful it’s free and that this educational tool is being provided to so many. As a rule we do not use screen time for anything other than learning. When our 3 year old was born we made a decision to get rid of our TV’s that’s how serious we are about what she views and how she learns. Even many of the children’s apps that we sifted through, as we started to utilize a combination of interactive and technology learning, were focused on one area. When we finally found a combination of three apps that we could use she quickly grew out of them. This app covers multiple ages and learning disciplines. Thank you from parents everywhere!

My kids love it!. This is perfect for my 4.5yo. There are so many activities, and I love how it automatically moves through a variety of disciplines rather than just always sending the child back to the main menu. My kids usually find one section of an app and then hang out there until they’re bored with the app, whereas this keeps things moving along and therefore keeps them interested. My 6yo is already a good reader, but it’s a nice review for her. She enjoys the songs and also the huge book section where she can read the page and then listen to the narrator if there are any tough words. I would love to see a more advanced parental panel in the future. We homeschool and use the regular Khan Academy for math and grammar, so I’d love to see a parental panel along those lines here. Either way, keep up the great work!

My Grandson Loves This!!. My 3 year-old grandson can occasionally be a handful, but he truly loves this particular app! He specifically asked for me to load the Kahn Academy for him because he had played it at daycare. We spend hours talking back & forth about the different topics and pictures. If I am not available, he plies Nana with questions and endless information about this app. He may be easily excitable, but this app excites him faster and in better ways than any of the other teaching or gaming apps do. It seems to be almost a “calmer excitement”, if there is such a thing. I see him learning more each time he uses the app. It makes me so happy that I was able to set it up for him and make this learning possibility happen.

Amazing!. We’re about to start homeschooling our four year old next school year but when I tried seeing if she knew any of the kindergarten curriculum on the khan academy website she didn’t. She’s familiar with abc’s and 123’s but I hadn’t realized she was falling behind. This app is amazing! It teaches everything they need for their age group and more! My daughter absolutely loves her “school work time” now. She’s excited to learn something new everyday. There’s also a coloring and story time section they can choose. If they aren’t getting an activity there’s always encouragement from the characters and you have the option to go back to any activity and redu it if you feel they didn’t quite understand it. It’s free there’s no adds and it’s encouraging actual learning! What more could you want for you kiddos?

Absolutely in love!!. My kids and I love this app so much. I homeschool my 4 babies, Using Khan Academy for my 9 and 14 year old. It was so hard finding an app that was free and appropriate for my 3 yr old twins. A lot of apps seemed a bit advanced in some areas or not advanced enough in others or appeared to be free then had all kinds of in app purchases. When I found out Khan Academy kids was launching I was extremely excited. This has been a great experience. Being able to adjust the difficulty level as they progress has been great making for very easy transitions. I can’t wait to see what’s next to come with Khan Academy kids! I tell everyone I know with small children about how amazing this app is. An actual free app that is fun, easy to use for parents and especially for kids, that allows you to easily track their progress. Khan Academy kids is by far the best I’ve ever use!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Best educational app out ther!. Amazing, truly free...includes books, educational videos that teach about particular concepts, and has games that are actually educational...there's probably more that I have yet to discover, but that's how much there is to do in this truly FREE app. Do not hesitate to download it. We got our newly 2-year old son an iPad and he uses this app every single day. You can change the settings to show content that is appropriate to your child's exact age/grade rather than a range, which makes it even better than others out there. Thank you so much for creating this amazing database of information. I'm not sure how you can afford it, but thank you! No apps, no gimmicks, just great educational content! Love Khan Academy Kids!!!

Very cute app. I love the graphics on this app and the fact that everything is free. It has some really cute, fun ways to teach concepts. My son loves the coloring section and I love that I can select particular lessons based on what I want him to learn. My son is 3 but already knows all his letters and phonics and numbers 1-20 so I like that I can switch around to different age levels to pick something that will be new for him. I had paid for a different learning app where it made him follow a path and do every activity in order to move forward. I only allow him really limited screen time so I want to be really intentional in what he is learning and I like that this app allows me to do that. My biggest suggestion for improvement would be to have some sort of questionnaire at the start for parents to input what things their kids already know and what skills they would like to focus on and then have the app suggest particular activities. As it is now I have to spend more time to switch around the age levels to find new concepts to teach him.

THE best kids’ app. As a mother and a teacher, I’ve personally tried no less than 20 educational apps for kids age 2 to 6, and Khan Academy Kids is doubtlessly THE best one! I’m so glad and grateful that Khan Academy finally launched this awesome app for younger kids! I’ve just recommended it to all my friends and parents. 1. The lessons are the perfect combination of education+fun. They seem to be more age-appropriate in the difficulty level than other apps I’ve tried, and therefore more engaging to younger learners . 2. It’s fast. No need to waste your or your kids’ time waiting for the next lesson to load up. 3. IT’S FREE! Thank you Khan Academy for your goodwill to give the learning opportunity to less privileged children! A few recommendations for parents: 1. We should always try to stay with our children when they are using this app. In other words, don’t let the screen be the parent. That way, we can be aware of their academic progress and able to offer help. We don’t need to sit right next to them, but should be within a short distance or in the same room to be able to hear/see what they are working on. 2. We should have a time limit for screen even with great apps like KAK. My personal preference for my kids and students is no more than 60 min / day. Anyway, I hope everyone enjoy this app and thank you Khan Academy!

Delighted to review. I never rate apps regardless if I feel positive or negative about it, HOWEVER, it is my pleasure to give POSITIVE reviews about this app. My 2 year old absolutely loves it. She’s even at the point where she wants to start doing the lessons when she first wakes up! She loves it when we do the activities together and I can see what areas she’s struggling with or commands she hasn’t heard in a certain way so that I can incorporate them into our every day. Some of the activities are too easy while others are difficult for her and I am extremely proud when she accomplishes them on her own. In other words, it helps build her confidence to handle the more difficult tasks. And did I mention IT IS FREE!!!!! This is such a blessing and an absolute gem. Please keep up the amazing work. Parents and kids thank you from the bottom of our hearts! ❤️❤️❤️

Easy to use and a great teaching tool. Our 4 year old loves this app, and so do we! It is better than most paid preschool apps out there. It covers reading, writing, math, communication, etc. with engaging games and a fun reward system. I got the idea from another reviewer to do two separate profiles; one specifically dedicated to following the outline for the learning games, and one to play on in whatever order my 4 year old wants. I sit down with him each weekday for 15-20 minutes to do the games on the learning profile. Then he can play on the other profile however he wants. It’s so easy to navigate that he can do it on his own. He loves the books section where he can listen to the book being read to him. He prefers this app to most of the other games he has on his iPad and chooses it every time he gets to play on the iPad. We highly recommend this app!

Not well done. App is confusing and buggy. An example of confusion: they used an existing YT video where bears roll off the bed, and the kid is supposed to count the number of bears. Khan lazily fast forwards the video. So it starts out with “10 bears” but the video is FF, and you hear “1 fell out” but there are now 6 bears left. So the kid may think “10 - 1 is 9” and chooses 9 (which is an option!) and now the kid it confused. Another example is when dragging and dropping in boxes. PBS Kids is liberal with this. Khan seems to require exactness and if the center of mass of the object isn’t inside the square, it tells the kid they are wrong. It is buggy mostly in that it requires an internet connection. There have been login issues (why do you need to log in? Why? There is no rationale I can think of. I thought Khan was a nonprofit?). When switching between modes like reading and logic it has to wait for a server response or something. Why have an app? The point of apps was to take advantage of the mobile device. Instead this is just a web site masquerading as an app. I feel ultimately the app developers and PMs just didn’t do well here. Instead of creating a bunch of mediocre activities in a mediocre “app” they should have built a great app experience with excellent content and added more excellent content every week or two.

Grateful. The little girl I care for before & after school has severe ADHD & was immediately captivated by this app. She stayed independently engaged for at least an hour without any assistance. She typically has meltdowns when it comes to anything related to school/homework. I was so excited to finally find something that would 1) get her off of the mind-numbing desensitizing nonsense on u-tube & 2) help her find education more fun. I’m super grateful that Khan Academy values education so much that they provide their invaluable resources as a donation-preferred app. Thank you for the massive effort in compiling all of the various well-developed age/grade-appropriate exercises. Even my 30-something year old son (who also has ADHD) found Khan Academy to be a useful tool when he was younger.

Thankful to finally find an educational app that is easy for toddlers to understand and use. We were introduced to ABC mouse by a friend but found it was much too chaotic for our almost 3 yr olds to decide what they wanted to learn in the busy “schoolhouse” format they provide. It’s more suited for older kids. Kahn Kids has been amazing for them, they listen to the directions given by the bear and wait to interact with the lesson until it’s time, and it’s very open and clear what they need to do, the activities are perfect, even when sometimes they stray from the initial lesson and just use it to color a picture or be creative, it’s still engaging their learning minds in an educational way vs just watching children's nursery rhyme videos on their iPads. We love that it uses the Super Simple Songs brand of videos alongside the lessons as we already know and love their songs and characters, we sing along and replay lessons over and over just having fun :)

Amazing learning app. This game can help so much in reading comprehension, mathematics and just about anything, this game can still be available without internet connection which is a pretty cool tool. This is such an engaging game it’s really unbelievable. One of the teachers in my school used Khan Academy Kids. Long story short I walked in on a normal Thursday and saw her students on tablets and any device this game could be played on (except for phones because none of her students have them). This game is fun for anyone. I teach a room of older kids and I thought (Khan academy not kids) was a nice tool for teachers but very boring for students but Khan academy kids really made it better for younglings. This game is great but developers please make Khan academy (normal bigger kid) more engaging. Me and the teacher Mrs Nowel and I love Khan academy kids. Thanks. Thank you developer for the reply. Our school currently has no questions. When we do we will gladly ask you. Thanks for no adds. We don’t want kids to see things that they shouldn’t be seeing.

So far so good!. It is indeed a very good app for kids, my child is very slow when it comes to the uptake of learning especially from an electronics device, but I can see the format and the way it is set up through which kids definitely will have lots of benefit. The fact that there is no ads and subscription while the content is still very kid-attractive and entertaining is definitely a bonus point. For now, my child is engaging with simple and random clicking but he enjoys the read along very much. But after he advances further with his speech and understanding, I’ll leave another review to update on how it has been for him. For now, 5 stars from a teacher and mother of two toddlers, as well as a great appreciation for having it completely free with all content accessible!

The best app for learning BUT. I love using this app for my 3 year old. She loves the characters and knows their names. The learning videos are fun and interactive and overall this is one of the best apps for her screen time. However, my daughter has developed a fear of the drum sound that is played when she answers something wrong. This has now made her not want to use the app. I tried to search for a way to switch off that particular sound. But this is not possible at all. I WISH the developers would either enable a feature to switch off that drum noise or use a different less loud or sudden sound to indicate an incorrect response. I really would love for her to spend more time on this app again. Please please help!!!

Best of the best. I am a grandma of a 2.5 yr old and a retired primary educator, 34 years. I’ve tried many apps, including ABC mouse which I mostly don’t like at this age and stage. My grandson begs for KAK! I love that it is partnered with Super Simple songs which we love way more than its closest competitor. I love the way the lessons are paced and the mailtruck reward system. I think today my grandson realized that when you select the wrong buttons on purpose (“ but I want to touch the pig”)it is remembered and you don’t get your prize as quickly as before! Then after the lesson there are numerous bonus activities. My grandson loves the repeating characters and likes to choose a book read to him. This is an App we will grow with . Thank you for the quality of this APP

Great!. I am ten years old, and I have a four year old sister. I tried teaching her with books, ABCs and 123s etc. she didn’t like it and would always be distracted. Ever since this pandemic started I looked and looked for apps and nothing worked. My teacher started giving us assignments in khan academy so when I searched it up this app popped up. I downloaded this app on my sister’s IPad and she fell in love. Now she is able to count to 50, no problem, she can do simple addition and subtraction, she can read simple words and she is always singing songs from this app. She walks around spelling, or trying to spell words all thanks to Khan Academy Kids. Thank you, I am super thankful you have an all free app for learning.

A+ app for kids!. My daughter(age 7) used Khan Academy in school prior to the 2020 pandemic. Our school district listed Khan Academy as a resource to use when schools began closing in March. We used it in addition to her other school work during that time. We decided to try this app for our son that is preschool age but needs just a little more time before introduction to a public setting and teachers; he’s our spirited one. Our son (age 4) LOVES this app, he willingly selects Khan Academy when we give him screen time. He actually stays engaged for long periods of time and has fun doing it. He uses the information learned from his lessons and applies it to his toys or in real life settings. He’s even begun to read short stories!! In conclusion, my personal opinion is that this app is amazing. If you have children that are already in school and need a little something to stay engaged; get this app. If you have a wild tornado child (our son) that has shown interest in learning but they are not quite ready to be put into a school setting; get this app. They go at their own pace and advance to the next subject after mastering the first. They also offer additional resources on the website for your kids, such as circle time videos, free printable worksheets. I wish more educational websites/apps worked like Khan Academy! Again, my own personal opinion and each family/child is different, but Khan Academy is a perfect fit for us.

Keeps my kiddo motivated. My son just turned 6 and has loved this app. It starts out easy while learning how to use the app and builds on previous knowledge so children can learn at their personal level. He has ADHD and low frustration tolerance but he was very excited about collecting bugs for his virtual bug box, part of the reward system in the app. He loves to collect bugs in real life, too. I believe this app is thoughtfully made to be user friendly and motivating for kids while not being overstimulating. I also love that it is free so that all kids with access to a hand held device can use it. When I’m financially able to I’d love to support Kahn Academy for all they’ve done for learners everywhere especially during the COVID-19 crisis.

More parental restrictions please. I noticed that new features to restrict buttons were added over the years such as turning off the library buttons and videos and play, but little is done to restrict a child from playing an activity over and over and over. My child has a special interest in letters, but he is way beyond letters. I give him the app, that is all he will do unless I guided access block areas of the screen to deny him from endlessly repeating the same activities over and over. The result is, the guided access screen area restrict ions are cover half the screen where he can’t play any activities at all. Suggestions before I can give a 5 star: put the grade level restriction tab in the parents menu rather than where kids can have access. Allow me to turn off all tabs individually from the parent menus. Remove letter books from the books tab, they belong in the letters tab. Also, improve the parent access prompts beyond just swipe up and down, because kiddos can read. Parent access prompts such as single digit and double digit multiplication options work well at blocking my kiddo in his other apps. Also, don’t prompt for parents birth year, there was a 1:10 chance of my kiddo guessing an appropriate birth year and now he puts 1969 in all similar prompts. I love this app, but without certain modifications, it become completely useless.

My Littles LOVE this app!. We downloaded onto our iPad for our 5-y/o to use during our recent flights. I was incredibly impressed. It has parent friendly setup, just one simple email verification and kid-friendly usability. She was able to maneuver around the app and find what she wanted to work on. The games align with what we’ve been working on in our homeschool, and she very quickly picked up new skills, too. There are an assortment of games and books to use offline when kids are not connected to the internet, and my only ask would b that there were a way for us to swap out what’s available offline. Maybe they rotate them periodically, I don’t know - we’re new to this app. Once kids use a specific game, it receives a check mark. There are drawing tools and my daughter was delighted to learn that the app saves a library of her drawings. “Look mom! It has all my old drawings!” I love that it doesn’t offer any in-app purchases. It had me wondering if I can go and make a donation to support this work, because as a homeschool parent, I’m really grateful. Anyway. Thanks so much for this amazing app! We love it!

Incredible Learning Platform (May Need UI Update By Age). My son (2.5yrs old) and I love this app. He loves singing along to the videos, playing the bite-sized games, and scribbling on the creativity section (mess-free I might add). I love that it’s educational, has NO ads, is free, and has age appropriate content. The ONLY negative thing I could even think to say is that navigating and finding the EXTRA content can be overwhelming and difficult for a toddler because the app has so many little videos, books, games, and lessons for them. This isn’t normally an issue because he only plays it with me supervising and helping him learn, so I can navigate for him; however, I think he would enjoy the app a lot more if he could navigate through it himself. They do make it straightforward to follow the pre-set learning path. You just open the app, tap your profile, and tap the play button center screen. The above is specifically for finding and interacting with the wealth of EXTRA content available on the app. My son prefers being able to choose what he wants to do instead of the pre-set lesson will be. So overall, it’s an incredible app, and I highly recommend it!

Excellent preschool reading and math skill app. This is a really excellent app, not for the least of which because it is FREE (truly free). There is a ton of content in this app. My son especially enjoys the books. He is difficult to read books to because he wants to talk about the pictures, or which words rhyme, or his feet, instead of listening to me, and doesn’t want to read aloud himself (though he can), if he is even willing to sit still at all. The books in the app can be read without sound or the app will read it to you. He usually chooses to have it read aloud to him, and he actually sits and listens patiently 😅. The tasks started off too easy so my son became bored at first but I encouraged him to keep going because they do get harder. That would probably be my only complaint: it takes a while to get to level appropriate material because of the linear progression. Of course, my son purposefully gets it wrong sometimes to see what happens, then laughs his head off, so maybe it’s not the app’s fault. The rewards are cute, though, and keep him interested. There is both online and offline content, and it is easy to check your child’s progress. A++.

PERFECT. Free. After visiting my local library, my 5yo sister wanted to keep going back to play on the iPads where they have educational games. She loved it but the library was closed this weekend so I downloaded a bunch of kids game apps on my phone hoping to find educational ones. Unfortunately, I found that all the apps I downloaded for her would ask for a payment to upgrade to have access to all lessons. I remember using Khan Academy in highschool to learn math and am so glad I downloaded it. My sister loves the games (my phone has 5% because she fell asleep playing!) and I really feel like she’s learning. I love that Khan Academy has provided this app and all their learning tools free of charge. I am super happy about this. DONT EVER PAY FOR KIDS EDUCATION APPS! This one is perfect.

Best in the World but.... Khan Academy Kids is excellent in every respect: teaching, entertaining, FREE, humungous database of great quality content. It is a 5 start app, no question about it. But... the problem is that most activities are loaded from their servers and even if you have a very fast connection; their servers are overwhelmed because this is such a popular and super amazing app, especially being FREE; that millions of parents around the world use it constantly. I use it with my two daughters (2 and 4 years old) every single night. They love it! But often times we have to wait 20 to 30 seconds for a particular module or activity to load. We have a 300mbps Comcast connection with a strong WiFi router which is basically next door. Oh, and I am an IT guys with over 25 years of experience. I am not complaining since this app is FREE and it is the best educational app in the planet by a long stretch. But I wish their servers offer would be more on par with their demand. I have no idea how this amazing company makes money out of this app because they don’t even show you ads. So, I understand why this will continue to be an issue for a while. However, this is an EXCELLENT app, by far the best in the world to teach your kids all that it’s offered inside the app. 5 stars and super highly recommended!!

Finally!. It’s here! I can’t believe it, someone who actually cares about the education of children! Thank you Khan Academy for making an app with no subscription, hidden purchases needed, annoying pop ups every time you open the app to “sign-up”. The app runs seamlessly unlike some other apps that “care about children’s education” but you have to subscribe weekly or monthly. Other competitors apps that you even have to pay for don’t run that smoothly and aren’t that engaging. This is an app created by people who care, and engages our 4 year old with healthy brain building challenges. This app is good for kindergarten preparation and they challenge our child in all required skills for well-rounded educational development. Again, thank you Khan Academy, I have Sal teaching me trigonometry and algebra and now your teaching my children to read and write, you help our entire family haha. Thank you guys from the bottom of our hearts!

Simple, slow, and 100% educational. I struggled with the idea of using screens with my 4 year old—he currently only watches pbs in a limited amount. We tried to teach him letters/numbers and got a lot of resistance, so some friend’s recommended apps like ABCmouse, which we tried. They were so animated and would do random activities like feeding and washing a pony—it didn’t seem educational enough and encouraged him to be on the app longer than necessary. When I tried Khan I couldn’t believe it was free! It is such quality with no ads. I went through all the options on their before giving it to him and was satisfied that they are all educational. And he has fun doing it. He still prefers watching videos (which there were a lot of videos on abcmouse). Even a good, educational video is passive and I wanted active learning.

Great content app. My twin boys 4 year old love Khan Academy app and as a mom I love when kids are learning and using their skill while using a given screen time. Khan Academy app is just made right for their age, the challenging level are made fantastic to keep them learning continuously while enjoying all the tools. I loved this easy to use this app with minimal tools which help them to keep away from distracting, the cute characters, neat instructions to follow while they learn how to be a good listener and most importantly clearly spoken in an actual standard manner. I was a HOMER app fan but Khan Academy won the trophy as they have more content for kids in one single box before it throws them to choose another, which is I think is great for repetitions. Stories content are the BEST, this momma don’t have to hunt for one now at the naptime. Thanks Khan Academy!!

Wow! Just what my kids needed!. Kahn Academy Kids is the best educational kids app I have found for my kiddos. The lessons are fun and engages my kids making it exciting to learn. We now use this app daily as a supplement to what they are learning in school. I have a 3 and 6 year old and both of them have their own profile and things we are working on. My 6 year old is learning how to read and he loves reading the books on the app out loud to me. My 3 year old is learning her letter sounds and this app actually pronounces the letter sound correctly for her. Super impressed by that as I haven’t found that to be common practice with education all apps - even on leap frog academy. The app is very intuitive to use and easy for my kids. I appreciate this because I can leave them to work on it independently or work alongside them - whichever I choose. Again, this is hard to come by. I also love how they get still get challenged by the lessons and actually grow and learn without feeling left discouraged. It gently nudges them if they get something incorrect. The math portion is wonderful as well and something I will be exploring more of. We have only had the app a week and there is SO much we can use this for. I felt compelled to leave a review already for the amount we have already used and enjoyed Khan Academy. Download this without hesitation for your child. You won’t regret it.

Khan is an Amazing today kids learning tools.. Thank you for letting kids all over the world experience the wonderful learning subject from toddler to young children of all ages group in this safe environment area where subjects to school live at home or away. This is also great app for kids to download and ready to go with variety of subjects and material for an awesome Free educational skills. We glad we were able to come experience and see this with our kids learning more from home and after school while making time for extracurricular activity. We appreciate this apps and thank for making it safe and free for all ages group kids like our kids to be able to utilize this while learning at the same time.

Great app. We love this app! Why? Well, it’s free and it’s absolutely wonderful! I almost never write reviews but since Khan Academy seeks to make education accessible to all, I thought it was best to give back! First, the app is engaging. The functionality is user-friendly and uncomplicated. The worst thing in the world is downloading a kids app that you cannot figure out. I love the fact that there are ebooks available in the app. Also, the graphics are engaging and full of bright colors and cute characters. I do wish that more of the educational material from the regular website was available through Khan Academy Kids. It would be good to see things my second, third and fourth graders can do. I have ended up using both Khan Academy and Khan Academy Kids. Finally, it would be great to access the same content from a website. My kids do not always have access to my iPhone.

OMG.... My 3 year old daughter, Katherine, has always had trouble learning. She just can’t keep up with what me or the teacher says. Once me and her teacher Mrs. Lee had a serious conversation that I should do better parenting. She got 3 N’s on her report card last week... I was literally crying in my room, praying for help. One day, I came across Khan Academy Kids. There were so many great reviews, I immediately installed the app on her tablet. I signed in and made a profile for her. She started that day and I saw a HUGE difference, and I mean HUGE, improvement in her math skills, problem solving, social emotional skills, reading, letters, etc. The next report card she got... I was in joy tears, reading that EVERY GRADE ON THE CARD WAS AN O!!!!!!!!!!!!! Katherine absolutely LOVES the exercises and games! The teacher even had a private conversation with me and said how much she GREW, and she was TOP OF HER CLASS!!!!! I can NEVER, EVER tell the Khan Academy Kids developers how much this MEANS TO ME!!!! I can never thank you enough, GOD BLESS YOUR SOULS😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Very well-designed for actual learning. My 4-year-old has been cruising through several apps over the summer and most seem to be designed to entertain kids with a hope that they’ll learn something, or they’re a mashup of kid shows and other “silly” content. I’m not saying they’re *bad* but my daughter is definitely more checked out after being on them after a while. They also don’t take into account kids different learning levels. The apps are the same for every kid. Khan Academy Kids is not like that. You can pick the difficulty level to match your kid’s ability which is awesome. I set up two profiles for my daughter. One set at kindergarten level that she can use in her own, and one at 1st grade level that she can do with a bit of monitoring if she gets stuck. It’s awesome. The whole experience is designed to promote learning in a way that’s engaging for kids but not silly. Everything has been designed with purpose. There are so many small details that I’ve noticed in the app that help my daughter get unstuck. They really do such a good job keeping kids focused on the right things and instructing in a way that is easy to understand and relatable for kids. Even the characters voices are soothing and child-like, as if it was a veteran kindergarten teacher speaking. Brilliant all around!

Makes screen time worth it’s weight in gold!. We recently purchased an iPad as corona and sheltering in place got the better of us. We were parents who avoided screen time like plague for our 2.5 year old son. But with schools closed and work from home getting challenging, we caved. However, the only app on his iPad is Khan Kids and with that, we have no regrets. He has learnt so much from watching those videos and playing the interactive word and logic puzzles that he has mastered most 3 letter spellings. Having been schooled in india, we as parents also found it informative to watch some of the phonics videos and unlearn our ways of learning and learn to teach him the way things are taught in schools here: the best part is no ads. We love the app so much that we are now recurring monthly contributors to khan kids. One suggestion for developers is to be able to increase the pool of words that feature in the word puzzles or allow parents to increase difficulty level once kids have aced a certain section of the learning. When the same set of 3 letter words repeat, my son begins to lose interest and gets visibly frustrated. He says ‘I just did this cody’ and gets upset when Cody gives him the same choices over and over again :)

ABA therapist. Get this app👌 I’m enjoying the Kindergarten version on IPad apps, This app/ program is thoroughly planned and creatively assembled to enhance learning and even entice viewers to want to learn. The visuals are ‘hip’ with fun characters and pleasant student feedback and recognition for their accomplishments as well as an accumulative path and chances to get the tasks correct adding more time and opportunities to learn the varied skills ex: logic, motor skills, memory challenges, exercises, Nature, sequencing, identifying emotions opposites.....so many more all presented in a very engaging but low fi, interesting and creative app. I will use it for all my students- nephew, neighbors kids it’s so good. Full of exactly what you’d want in a very complicated/ yet easy to access and user kid friendly sophisticating and modern enjoyable learning app 🎈

Really Helps. I like this app because it helps me know what I should work on with my grandchild since I’m not a teacher by profession. I started using it with her at age 3. On areas where she had trouble we would go to her little chalkboard, whiteboard, a piece of paper or a book to help with the problem. She started at the preschool 3 years old and is now on Kindergarten and she just turned 4. She loves the sorting activities and the other memory and flexible thinking activities. I don’t rely only on the app. I have games that we use for hands on, we do lots of puzzles, read books and other writing and skills but this app has helped her and help me in teaching her. And I don’t consider this a game app. To me it’s a teaching app and should be used with supervision of an adult.

Best Kids Learning App. My wife and I downloaded this app for our 2.5 year old son, and I couldn’t be happier with it. They mean it when they say 100% ad free learning that you don’t have to pay for. I am a pediatric behavior therapist and my wife is a teacher, so we know a lot about child development and learning. This app exceeds both our expectations. I love that you can choose between picking your own lessons and the pre made lesson path based on age. Our son has a deep love of learning already, and with Khan Academy Kids, we are able to better support him. It also has an offline section so when you aren’t connected to the internet, kiddos can still use the app. We are very happy with Khan Academy, and definitely recommend this to anyone with young children.

Totally Free with no Ads. My daughter is in kgarten. She was heavily addicted to yt kids and i despised that because a lot of content is garbage and depending on what they watch it’s a constant commercial with stuff being directly and indirectly targeted at them. So finally weaned her off of ytk and ioad in general. Now that I hit the reset button on her. I told her the majority of her time needs to be spent on educational apps and then she can have 15m on ytk. Khan kids she loves and will stay on at last a 1/2 hour learning while playing. Then the singalongs is something she enjoys as well. Hopefully they can put more site words for different age and stages but this goes up to 6 years old which is 1st grade and by that time they can use khan academy! Which I use for my other 3 kiddies and adults can use it too. That’s the icing on the cake!!!

Hold on …. Ok, you’ve heard what the parents think, but how about the kids? Well, I’m a kid! Ok, it’s a okay app but I have a few small and big complaints. I’m not against the learning, I’m against the to easy content. I’d also like to touch up this problem, you do this for little kids to second grade. You don’t do older kids. You’re teaching to easy things by the way. You’re explaining it well though! This is a good app it just needs more kid loved content. How about adding this app up to fourth grade? Please stop the block cubits. It’s really not a life skill. Try multiplication and division, those are everyday skills a kid needs. Try multi-digit addition and subtraction. Maybe even three digit. Don’t acknowledge small math. Don’t show pictures of things and ask the kid doing the activity what the object is. They will not learn how to spell that way, believe me! Tell the kids to write the word they hear and not with a word bank. Acknowledge carrying and borrowing. I used to have a teacher who’d mark out problems with carrying and borrowing. Tell them about REAL books. Where has chapter books gone? (That’s for older kids, but Junie B. Jones is a good starter chapter book. Thank you guys in advance, have a wonderful day!

Great Content. While I was homeschooling my children, Khan Academy is where I sent them for extra math and science tutoring. They received excellent instruction. Khan academy also introduced them to coding, which they love. Having come to trust Khan Academy for its content, I downloaded this app as soon as I saw it. I don’t like to let the two year old use my phone, but there are those desperate moments. This app is easy for my toddler to navigate. Like the website my older children used, badges are given when tasks are complete. In this case, they are digital toys he can play with when he visits the characters’ spaces. In fact, all of the learning feels like play. That is a major plus. We also love that Super Simple Songs are part of the curriculum.

Great for toddlers. My grand daughter is now 19 months and she started using Khan at about 15 months. It took her a bit of time to learn to listen however now she uses it nearly every day and has learnt a great deal and enjoys using Khan. It is an excellent education tool and also gives us valuable time together.

The Best App In a Lifetime. So much basic work on this app! What about Khan Academy Kids 2!!!

Best App. Best app I’ve found, absolutely brilliant and my 3 year old loves it and it adapts as he learns. No hidden fees

Super Simple Songs related activities not working. After the most recent update, any activity that uses Super Simple Songs does not work. Please fix.

The best app. Our kids love this very much and as the adult I like that it is of good quality, no ads and does not need the latest iOS and iPad. It works fine on iPad mini 2 when many other apps are not supported anymore.

Excellent. Excellent learning games for young minds.

Best eduction app for kids. Very first review for an app in my whole 10years with iPhone. Khan academic kids is the best of the best eduction app for kids and even better, it is 100% free. Love it!!

So fun. This game is so fun it’s maths but I feel like it’s a game because it is so fun

Great app. Simple and easy way for kids to learn,

Phenomenal app. I love this app. My son enjoys it so much and learning feels so much fun. Thank you!

Amazing. I loved this app

Khan kids. It’s fun with your app

So thankful for Khan Academy. This is app is brilliant and engaging. Love the depth and the gentle flow through complexity.

Amazing. This app is for free and it really helps my son learn!

Absolutely Amazing free app. Thank so much for making this great free app!

Khan Kids. This app is good for learning and education 👍👍👍👍

Very much recommended!. Great educational app thank you

You are the best. I love reading

👍🏼. My son loves this app,

Best learning app I have found. My 3 year old daughter loves this and makes learning fun. She enjoys the stories and math games. Highly recommend it

Amazing content - Perfect for 2-4yr & Free!. I just can’t believe this amazing app content is free. The content is extremely high quality and perfect for 2-4yrs. Covers counting, letters, emotions, shapes and is fun and engaging. The UI is easy for small hands and easy to follow. The free colouring-in is also great. In my opinion the contents of the program rivals ABC reading eggs junior program (paid program). The look of the app (graphics) is very modern and smooth (compared to dated reading eggs). Overall a fantastic program that I would happily pay for. 100% recommend.

Highly recommend this. Kids love it. Great content which supplements early education. No need for lots of screen time as comes in short little activities that the kids can do for 5-10 mins of an evening. Lots of variety. ...and free. Very hard to fault. Recommend to anyone.

Best free app for kids. I have 2 kids under the age of 5, using this app and they have learnt a lot from this app

Best learning app ever!. It is simple, explain concepts in a clear and interesting way kids can understand easily. My kids, 4yr and 6yr, can follow the instructions without any help. They both love it! Best of all, it’s free and no ad!

Love it!. My little brother loves this game. It really challenges his mind while making it so much fun for him.

Good. App. I love this app

Greatest app ever. Better than expensive paid apps or subscription apps. And it is still free

App. This app is amazing for my children

Great one. Great

Khan Academy Kids. Fantastic learning app. Really helped my daughter & she enjoys it. Best of all it’s free. She loves the rewards as well. Fantastic, highly recommend

Engaging program. As both a mum and Early a childhood teacher I was looking for a fun and engaging program for my child. We chose Khan academy because it is research based and has adaptive features. The program is free so you can actually try it before committing and making a donation. Our daughter is in kindy and sits happily engaged for 45 minutes to an hour. We like the fact there are no pop up adds or interruptions to learning. We plan to make a donation so that the Khan academy can continue to provide a great maths/literacy/logic program.

Awesome. Free, Quick Everything You’ve Dreamed Of ^^

Thank you. My daughter love it 🥰

Zakerah. I love it

Nice. These days very few things are free sometimes they cost a bit also rubbish. Khan’s free and well developed, that’s very rare now, appreciate it.

Amazing and excellent. It’s and excellent work. My daughter age 4.5 year is loving this app. She is enjoying all the activities and trying her best to complete all the tasks. Thanks a lot for such a great job.

Top notch app. High quality interactive learning app. My kid loves it!

Superb. My ASD Miss 3 absolutely loves this app. It has helped her speech and literacy development, just to name a few benefits. Short, relevant and interactive segments, no adds, no pop ups and no purchase needed. Thank you!

The best for children. My Son used this app, he used to struggle noticing his numbers, but when we downloaded this app he could now easily identify his numbers

Helpful app for kids. Great

Great app which makes learning fun. My two year old absolutely loves this app and I love watching her progress as she learns! I’m so grateful for this app and it being free.

Can’t change child’s grade. The grade 1 content is too easy for my child so I wanted grade 2 level tasks but I am not able to change my child’s year level. I also can’t find a way to delete my account to set it up again so I will probably have to delete the app and won’t be able to redownload it because it just going to ask me to sign in and I’m back to the same situation. Need to have an account delete option or the ability to changechildren’s grade. Thanks

This how good. Fun good not bad best long

Mr.. Genius apps like this are super rare. Completely free in every sense, richly curated and detailed learning experiences and wonderfully designed and animated. I can't give it six stars, so I'm giving it a very emphatic five. Outstanding.

Brilliant, engaging. Brilliant app. My 3 year old adores this app and finds it highly engaging.

Where’s Grade 3?. Grade 3???????? Where are you????

Excellent App. Anything produced by Khan Academy is excellent. One small notable error though is when counting more than one item on a page. If kids accidentally tap more than once on an item (such as toddlers repeatedly tapping), the item then de-presses/ de-selects, reverting the count back to zero. They then try to click another item to count (the second item of whatever), but the count is again at “one” or zero. The task isn’t being understood and is lost on the young ones. Might be best to set this so any one single tap on the countable item, permanently holds that item as being ‘counted’, and would save a lot of confusion. In all, there are far more benefits from this App than can be described here!

❤️. I’m going crazy and I have to get a 5❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ for the app now and then I’m gonna go crazy for the first time and then I’ll get a picture with my friend in the next couple weeks to get sara go crazy for the weekend and then I’ll get it done ✅ then I’ll get a hold on her for a little bit if she doesn’t like that I don’t know if she’s not gonna have it or just do something’s wrong with it but she said that I would be able to go with you

perfect study with entertainment. very intelligent

I get the same lesson over and over again :-:. so I got this app and I enjoyed it but then I kept on getting the same lesson! It’s very annoying and now I don’t play it much pls fix this problem -_- and I also get the same options of prizes over and over again which makes me mad a bit and pls add more stories and more activities ._. mk yea that’s all I have to say

🦄. Its fun

I appreciate your great work. I love it and my kids love it. Thank you so much.

I like but. Add more drawings and stickers and stuff

My child likes it!. My child likes it!

High. I love this app it helps my kids so much

Bla-bla-bla. It is an very inappropriate app

Love it. I’m grade 5 but it helps me remember stuff and it’s fun I love it 😊 thanks

I like khan kids. I like khan kids, from small to big I have always been playing and learning in khan kids but when I color I can not color the very bottom hope you fix that. Good luck

Awesome. Yes awesome

Great educational app. My child loves reading the stories and playing the reading games to improve her reading skills.

Great. My 8 year old is starting to use the khan for older kids, but he really enjoyed this one

Great app!!. My siblings have cousins who do homeschool and well I suggested this app and it was great they never stop thanking me, Best app!

Please support the screen ratio of iPad mini 6. It is awesome

Love it. I love this app. They also have a website for older kids. It’s the best learning tool I have found. Highly recommend it.

An equalizer for education. If you can get access to this app, it can be all you need for so many purposes. And it is free! Make sure to take advantage of the books section! I wish my kids used the create and logic games more but I like how they mix them in.

Best out there. It’s better than most of the app I paid for and it’s free. The graph/animation is soooo cute, content is great and fun. My 3 and 5 yr olds really enjoy the game. Can’t praise it enough. Excellent job, developer and thank you for making it free

Wonderful learning app. Thank you! My toddler loves this app and I love not having to worry about her clicking on ads. Thank you so much for having so much content free. There is a ton of stuff for my toddler to do and has awesome levels for her to grow into.

A big thanks to a great team. Thanks very much for this app. Please know that we love and respect your organization and everything you do!

👉😋👈. This is the best app for children! :D it has many stuff.

Nice. Loving it

It’s great. My daughter loves it,she expects to learn it everyday.

My 4 Year Olds Favourite Game!!. We love this game it is so educational and fun! I got our LO a stylus pen to practice the letter and number tracing, such a great choice!

Keeps the little guy positively engaged while I sleep in a bit. Nice

Amazing!. This app is amazing! Thanks for all your hard work!

Best of the best. Our family loves this! Thank you Khan!!!!!

Finally a free learning app worth downloading. I fully appreciate the that the developers have thought about the kids and families they’re serving rather than the bottom line. To close the gap for lower income families that can’t afford or can’t justify the cost of many other learning apps. This one is great; multiple profiles, multiple learning levels, and tons of content all for free. Thank you.

Extraordinary learning app!. This app was a lifesaver during the Covid pandemic when my kids were at home. They loved this app so much and it helped them to learn at their own pace, in an engaging way. Now that they are 8 & 9, I just wish this app offered learning material at their level- particularly math (multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, etc). Amazing contribution to families! Thank you Khan Academy!!

Fabulous!. We are so grateful for this free, quality learning app, with NO advertising. Thank you.

Great app. What an amazing app! One of the best and most engaging I’ve seen for school! It would be nice if there were more levels. Definitely an app I would be willing to pay monthly or yearly for if there were more levels to get into.

Fun app. I love the app, just wish it had the closed captioning option !

Free and interesting for kids. One of the few free educational apps out there for kids that doesn’t have a bunch of annoying in-app purchases. Great quality and variety of games and activities appropriate for specific ages.

Amazing. Has such a great variety of games, books, subjects. The kids love it and I love it.

Fantastic app. Both kids love it

10/10 recommend!. It’s by far the best app we’ve come across, my son loves it and it’s perfectly balanced with interactive games, stories, videos and even has interactive simple songs throughout the app. We love it and definitely recommend.

More please. It is a really fun app. But I finished all the books with people,so please add more.

Umm. I think khan academy ‘’kid” is ok but I think y’all don’t learn

Incredible new stories. The new stories are amazing! I can’t believe this is all free. Thank you for bringing this to the world!

yuh. ariana grande

Def gf were u de f dadUuiiujkjjktxyybfehdggf. C cb rc v def k

Amazing!. My kids are LOVING this app! Thank you!,

Great app. My daughter really enjoyed it and learned a lot from it.

Fabulous App. My kids and I have loved this app for years. My son started playing at about 3 and is now 6 and still finds elements he can enjoy and my daughter, now 3 has just started and loves it. Her writing and letter recognition has already begun to improve.

Essential. Wonderful for kids 4-8! Must have. Told all my family members with kids.

One of the best: educational, fun and free!. This is by far my most favourite app! My 5 and 3 years old love it! There are so many activities and books and games to play with and learn. It is perfect for younger kids. It also has a reward system where kids can earn rewards by learning new things. You can create accounts for each kid so they can be responsible for earning their own stuffs. I honestly haven’t found another free app that can come close to this one. Thank you so very much For creating this app!

Education 1#. I teach my sister a lot on here when I teach her by myself she doesn’t understand it all but with this app she understands it all and she loves the app too!

Super educational app for small kids.. My 4 years and 6 years love this app and enjoy learning in different ways . Thanks for the amazing effort .

Thank you!. Thank you for this wonderful application. The kids really enjoy it and it helps them learn a lot. It’s a blessing in addition to homeschooling. So grateful to have this for the kids. Would 100% recommended to other parents it’s worth their time spent on the screen to do this.

Awesome. You guys are awesome thanks for this app

Assignments not marked. I absolutely love this app! I am a preschool teacher, and have used the app for snow days... my kids love it! it was so handy to add all my kids, even if different ages, and add assignments to only certain students if I wanted, or all quickly. The one thing that has bumped my review down to only 4 stars is that sometimes the assignments show up as done one day and not done the next for the same student (in the assignments view). I have to click on each student to see who actually completed it. That’s my only complaint, as it can be very confusing and time consuming to hunt down the true state of completion across my class. Though sometimes it works perfectly. 🤷‍♀️

So Grateful for this App. As a Mom of a brilliant but challenged special needs child, I have spent more money and time on various programs and learning apps that I care to remember. I am so incredibly grateful to this learning app, all of its’s contributors, and staff! For the first time, I can really see my child really understand and compute what she’s learning which is letting her retain it rather than just going through the motions and not really learning much at all. I’ve actually seen more growth in her than from this learning app than even in actual school. It’s actually shocking this app is free, because, really it’s priceless. Thank you so so much Khan Academy!!!!

LOVE it!!!. I can’t begin to tell you how much my four year old loves this app, not only that she is learning while having a grand old time. What use to be a much disliked “quiet time” after lunch for ONLY one hour each day turned into a much looked forward to FUN time while she plays Khan Academy App for the one hour. Now I had my doubts that this would keep her attention for that long period of time...but it did! I also wondered if she would kind of get tired of it...you know after the newness of it all wore off....she has NEVER once had a complaint of any kind about this app. To me the creators of this app are fabulous and so grateful for a free app which has no annoying interruptions or ads of any kind....so pleased with Khan Academy!!!

Best free learning app. I have tried SO MANY free learning apps and this is the VERY BEST for my 2.5 year old. We don’t let my son use a tablet or phone/app much but this is the only thing we let him play when he does use devices. It is great during dr appointments and the other times we are out and about and I need him distracted for a little bit. We let him play it in airplane mode on the plane when we were traveling too so it’s good for that but it is a little more limited without internet which is fine. I have no idea why anyone would leave a review under 4 stars but maybe the lower reviews are from before they made fixes or something.

Amazing for my 4 year niece (Highly recommend). Hello! I’m Hope and I’m 10 years old. Me and my niece both love this app, My niece is starting pre-school and I’m going into 5th grade in a month so I wanted to get me and her some learning games so we can both learn and get smarter before school starts! ⭐️ It’s amazing because it’s fun and also keeps my niece calm when she’s having a temper tantrum. 😇 It really helped her and me a lot, I’m SO happy it doesn’t require a subscription, I’ve been looking for at least 30 minutes trying to find a fun learning game that’s free cause I have no money 😔 And this is the game I have been searching for. I want to thank you for providing a fun and a learning experience for my niece and me! 🥳 With love Hope

Told all my friends about this app. Not only is this app FREE (for real) but the content is engaging and fun. My 3 year old loves it. I downloaded it yesterday and he is always asking to play the “animal game” as he calls it. I love watching him demonstrate his abilities and learn more. I have one suggestion: Diversity! Diversity! Diversity! Almost all of the human children are white. I’ve seen only one child of color. There needs to be more! Like half of the children should be people of color, of various ethnicities. Not just African American, but Latinx, Middle Eastern, Indian, and East Asian. It’s important that children see themselves in stories, but also for my white son to see children that don’t look like him.

Quarantine support. As we are all looking for creative and engaging ways to keep our children’s education going at home, Khan Academy has stepped up impressively. I have one at home who often lagged behind in school, being more interested in the social aspect. This app has step-by-step courses that ensure that all the gaps are filled. The courses increase in difficulty gradually enough to give children a sense of success and enjoyment in learning, which follows the company’s “growth mindset” philosophy. We can celebrate the struggles and accomplishments of learning! The math and reading courses aren’t just fun and random, but do actually follow an educational theory. So many apps get deleted because in the end, the child hasn’t learned. The authors have included enough material in this app to work on many specific math and language skills. As if that weren’t enough, they are providing even more content on their website to help parents find offline, screen-free activities for our home-bound children. I’ve recommended this app to several families and teachers. It is pairing well with what my children are doing in their school work.

Technology for 2yr olds. My 2 yr old loves this app we started using it last March and it is now September. She learned so much over the break from daycare, and it kept me tuned into some of the blind spots in her education I would not have seen otherwise. I love that it includes interactive stories and songs/music videos that she recognizes. The debate over how technology should be used for children, does not apply to this app. This is not just a substitute for activities that can be done offline this uses the tech to enhance your child’s learning experience, and teaches them to be more adept with technology.

Lovely App! But.... My daughter loves this, I love this - the fact that SO much is here and all for free is astounding and I recommend this to everyone. However! Please, developers! Make a “Delete All” button on the Create -> Gallery section. Sometimes my kid will open a coloring page, poke a color on it, and the check mark SAVES this! I spend more time deleting all the one off coloring pages she’s done, when a Delete All function would make this so much easier. Aside from that, thank you! Quality educational material that’s fun and engaging, with bright colors and cute characters.

Great!. My children have been on this constantly and my daughter is four years old and my son is five years old when they got home from school they would go straight to this app this is a great app for them to get more education and l like my son and daughter read with fluency and so this is a great app there’s no ads or anything like that. So in conclusion I would like everybody’s children to go on this because it is a great app and it’s for education and it’s great to hear that your child is really learning a lot so right now when they grow up they’ll be really great learners thank you please send feedback. 🤩

Simply Amazing!. My three-year-old calls this the hats game, based on one interaction he particularly enjoys. He loves this app and will play on it for 20-40 minutes a day, and I feel like we’ve tricked him into learning. The little dude spelled “cab” earlier. He can count to 20, count backwards from 10, and knows most, if not all, of the alphabet. He’s learned new terms like “behind”, “first” vs “last”, and how to recognize and repeat certain patterns. Plus, he loves it so much I feel like I’m tricking him into early school! Sometimes the songs get reeeeally stuck in my head, but I think that’s the nature of toddler television. Plus this doesn’t require an expensive membership!

Very engaging for 2 and 4 year old. My grandchildren have been distance learning and I downloaded this to provide more structure and guidance to what I was doing with the kids. The various sub programs are great. Besides having the basic building blocks for learning to read, math, literacy and logic - there is a large library of books that will be read to the children (or you can read to them), and coloring pages. The library is also broken down into sections and includes a large nature section. My granddaughter will explore these books and share what she has learned with excitement. The app had far more than I expected.

Really impressed with this app.. We’ve tried and used several educational apps, both paid and free, and khan academy kids is excellent. Because it is free without ads, there is total piece of mind when I need my child to use the program without my constant supervision. Other free apps have ads and even with me close by, my children have accidentally tapped on them. Khan academy is also a quality program. As an educator myself, I’ve been happily impressed with the content covered. My children (ages 4 & 6) have enjoyed the app and the characters and activities keeps them engaged. I have not found any free educational app that compares. I highly recommend this app!

Developer: Fix please - avoid upper screen area. (Update/Response) Received the tip on disabling access to the Control Center in setting, however, that’s not what I’m talking about. The Control Center is from the bottom of the screen. I’m talking about the Notification Center, from the TOP of the screen. And there’s no features to disable access to it within the app. So designers/developers need to be aware of that limitation and not put draggable items so-far-up at the top of the screen. (Original) It’s a great app. My kid loves it except whenever there’s buttons, or draggable items in the upper part of the screen. It keeps on pulling down the Notification Center window instead, so she quits playing. Maybe not an issue on the iPad, on it’s a major issue on the iPhone. I would give 5*s if it wasn’t for that issue.

The best learning app for kids!. My son’s kindergarten has a weekly technology class, and they introduced us to this app. At first I was not thrilled about using screens as a learning tool, but after watching him use Khan Academy, I can see that it is engaging his mind and he is truly learning! Compared to other educational apps, this is by far the best. When we found out it was a non profit, we donated funds to help keep it going. Covid has put a financial strain on the free educational apps as more and more people use their services, so we felt it was important to contribute, seeing as we are getting such a good quality service. Thank you Khan Academy!

LOVING this app. I downloaded this for my 3 year old so that we could start some “pre” everything skills. I am truly blown away by how much she is learning. She is learning her letters, numbers, logic, parts of a book, she’s also worked on some fine motor and can manipulate her tablet too. She has picked this up so fast and always begs to play with Kodi. I love love love this app and have recommended it to several friends. I LOVE that I can view her progress and if I want, I can assign her specific lessons. Which I will utilize when I want to begin preK. I cannot sing the praises loud enough, I’m so appreciative of this app because she loves learning already. Thank you so much!!!!!

Breakthrough. 3 y.o. with delayed speech on spectrum. Books are not interesting, forget teaching for more than a few minutes. He loves this app! Giggles away at putting bows and hats on penguins; will listen to puppy book so he can do the activity on each page(mind blown!); and he will draw the lines and shapes with his finger! Forget doing THAT with any coloring utensil and paper or board. Has heard letters but doesn’t associate with words or pictures yet. He spelled “dog” correctly twice as part of an activity with letter D. Thank you for this great resource. It brings out hidden understanding and brings hope.

Amazing!. Downloaded this app for my grandson who is 4. He absolutely loves it ! We have other educational apps but this one apparently fits the way he learns. He is a do-it -myself type and seems to be able to teach himself sometimes after he makes a few mistakes . He asks for guidance only when stuck now that he has figured out how it works. Currently collecting bugs as rewards and he is very focused on “ earning” yet another one. With other apps he has fun but after awhile he starts goofing off and makes mistakes on purpose . Not this one. For some reason it keeps him focused. The app is user friendly and he loves the rewards for a job well done.

Excellent filler activity for 2.5 yr old. I was skeptical (and hesitant) to try this with my 2.5 yr old but he quickly (scarily?) figured out how to navigate to the games, books and videos. He loves the songs and now sings along. He’s learning lower case letters just from accidentally selecting those games. I feel comfortable setting a 20 min timer on the iPad and letting him go to town, jumping around to whatever he wants. He’s very good about knowing that when iPad timer goes off, he’s done. Perfect amount of time for me to get chores done or make lunch. My one critique is the books are so short and could be a bit more engaging (faster?) for a toddler’s attention span, but generally just really appreciate the simplicity and pace of this app.

Almost too good to be true.... I still can’t believe that this entire app is not only FREE, but also free of ads and free of in-app purchases. The whole enchilada is there for your enjoyment. And the kids REALLY enjoy it! I love that they can log in to their name and hit the play button, and they’re off. The activities are entertaining, but more importantly, they’re truly educational. Everything is very well thought out, so that kids are encouraged to progress. A nice mix of subjects gives kids all the building blocks they need. This year, with homeschooling, the app has been indispensable. A big THANK YOU to Khan Academy for sharing this wonderful resource absolutely gratis. Incredible.

A gift!. I’m a substitute teacher and I encounter many students coming from afar the United States. They are eager to learn English and they are enroll in school. But they need much more support. I introduced them to Kahn Academy for Kids and they are learning the basic of our language. Using the app gives them privacy and also all the time to study on their own. Little at time their feeling much more in control of their own learning and feel more up to talking in school, reading aloud and writing without using translators. Competency is a great affirmative skill. Thank you for making available such great product. Dr. Leticia Zervas-Gaytan

Absolutely In Love. When I first saw this app, I was instantly drawn to the quality of the art and the bright colors. This app has been perfect for my two year old. We actually started letting him playing with it when he was 21 months old. He caught on to using the app easily. This is one of his favorite apps. I love the content. It’s totally age appropriate. I love that Kahn Academy has paired up with Super Simple Songs for their content for two year olds. It really adds to the quality of the app. He loves to sing and dance along with the songs. They encourage kids to stand up and dance. I share this app with all of my Mom-friends because it’s just so great.

Educational Fun. I have been very pleased with Khan Academy. My 5 yr old grandson prefers it over PBS and that’s saying something! With Covid uncertainty his father decided to keep him at home another year before starting kindergarten. I’m the one who cares for him during the day and wanted something that would be a fun learning experience for him to help prepare him for kindergarten next year. This app completely fills that need. And, to have it free of cost on our budget is an added blessing we are grateful for. (Thank you, developers!) Btw: I’m a retired kindergarten teacher and I can promise anyone this app is very efficient in its teaching style and progressive curriculum layout.

Thank you for a great app. This app is awesome, I recently started my 18mo daughter on this app and am amazed at how much she is learning. She is still young and has trouble navigating but is learning, which is the purpose of the app right. The explanations while engaging is extremely helpful and is teaching her to listen and follow directions. I’ve also noticed that she is listening and following directions from mom and dad better when we ask her to do things in our daily lives. Thank you khan academy and developers for this awesome free/no ad app. If you’re reading this, yes, you should download this app!!

First pick for my four YO. I installed the Khan academy kids app and put it on the first screen of my iPad and phone. I didn’t tell my four year old. She found it within a few days and absolutely loves it. So do I. I feel like if she’s gonna use an app it should be education and fun. KAK checks both boxes for me and her. She doesn’t realize she’s learning but she loves to use the app. I’m interested to see if she’ll continue to challenge herself and pick subjects that are harder for her. My favorite thing about the app is that it’s so complex. It has everything from letters to numbers to logic etc. there are things to watch AND things to do. I highly recommend it.

5 stars from Mom and kids!. Kahn Academy Kids is an amazing app for teaching kids. And it’s free!! We limit screen time, but when we do allow it, this is one of the only apps we use because I know my kids are safe, learning and having fun! One of the greatest things is that we can use what they learn in the app and engage with each other later, or vice versa. The app itself is very well designed and easy and fun to navigate without a lot of clutter (unlike some other free or paid apps). And there are parental tools to keep track of what the kids are learning. I recommend Kahn Academy Kids to everyone who needs or wants another tool to keep their kids engaged and learning.

Good app but age ranges need to be changed. The difference between a 3 year old and 5 year is significant so the app range is too young for him and not adjusting fast enough. But 6 year range is way above him UPDATE: I am very impressed by the quick response I received and the clarifying explanation. I am no longer concerned about the slow adjustment of the app. The developer explained the reasoning behind this is to make sure the child has learned all the necessary skills before moving on. Fill in the gaps. Thank you for getting back to me with a link and explanation.

So grateful. So grateful for this app. A fun and educational experience. My toddler loves it and has shown improvement in her reasoning skills. Best of all, it’s free! I have no problem with paying a few bucks to purchase an app, but in my search for a decent educational app for my kid, I found apps riddled with ridiculous price tags and in app purchases and/or subscriptions. So I was ecstatic to find this one. Moreover khan academy has proven its not about the money, it’s about the education and creating a fun learning environment. Now the reason I gave it only four stars out of five is because the app occasionally freezes on the ipad. Hopefully this issue will be fixed but it doesn’t detract from the overall positive experience.

If your kids are going to use apps, have them learn something beneficial. Although I generally avoid letting my children use tablets or other electronic devices, if they are going to use them- have them at least learn something beneficial and educational. My kids love Khan Academy Kids and will even do chores from screen time on the app. The graphics and user interface are user friendly and the content is amazing. Keep up the good work! Now all you need to do is add a timer feature build into the app so my kids have to put it down when there time on the app is done and are willing to share the device. 😃

COVID-19 Lifesaver. This is fantastic!!! With schools being closed due to COVID-19, we needed something that our kindergartener could do independently since we are both still working. She has homework from the school, but needs hands on assistance with it. We have found that Khan Kids mirrors her school work perfectly and is an awesome supplement. I was trying to help her with a new concept on her homework this weekend and she told me “don’t worry, Khan Kids already taught me this”. We couldn’t be more thankful for Khan Kids Academy!! Our almost 3 year old is also using it and enjoys it too. We will be using this long beyond the pandemic!

Really wonderful. This app is well developed, not too flashy, and definitely education. My 25 month old daughter loves it and is truly learning from it, even in the short periods of screen time that we let her have. I’m pretty sure she now knows what “tall” is because of these games! My only complaint is that if she plays on my phone and I need to borrow it from her for a minute to answer a call or return a text, when I go back into the app, it’s like it completely closed and she has to start her game over. I wish it stayed active in the background for her to come back to exactly where she was.

Brilliant app for kids!!. I downloaded this app for my 2 and 4 year old children. The app is very simple, beautiful, and easy to use. The voice guiding the child through the activities is soft, soothing and very easy to follow. My 2 year old is able to follow who has never used any app before. When I first downloaded it for my 4 year old, she thanked me several times during her play as she really enjoyed learning on it. I felt very glad. She has used some paid apps earlier but was never this excited. I can say she is learning with lots of joy with Khan kids. Thanks to the developers and the team working behind such a brilliant app.

Love it!. With remote learning going on right now we as parents are exercising every level of ways for our 6 year old daughter to continue with a successful education! We recently bought her a year subscription of ABC mouse! Then I came across an add for another learning app wanting you to BUY for their learning app & someone in the comments recommended Khan Kids & said how it was 100% free so I had to check it out! My daughter absolutely LOVES this app! She prefers it over ABC mouse... I wish we would have found it before paying for a year subscription... it’s nice to not have to buy any other learning app just to better your child’s education! Thank you Khan Kids!!!!!

Best app. By far the best free learning app out there. I mean...far....all the other are trash with tons of ads or purchase to unlock. Picture quality is superb. Contents is even better! I mean you can tell the team behind the design to allow creative learning and play with this app is superb! My 4.5 year old son is so into it in a good way. He get to learn so much different stuff, it’s amazing. Pat yourself on the back whoever create this and make it free, esp around a time like this. There are lots of kids out there who can’t afford to buy apps. I’m glad such a quality app is free out there for all kids.

Best educational app for young children. We are very thankful we came across khan academy kids! My 5 year old absolutely loves it. It’s the only educational content he is currently interested in, and it really help now more than ever as the schools are closed and learning at home is a big challenge. The app is so thoughtfully designed with the right amount of challenge and rewarding enough for the kids to continue. It is slow and covers almost any content that is introduced to young children at this age group. To the developers: thank you so much! You have our blessings and our heartfelt wishes for your success. A free app with no ads and no strings attached is a hard find in this day and age!

Perfect Free Alternative to ABC Mouse. My daughter is 2 1/2 years old, an only child, and is not yet in preschool or any sort of daycare. She spends a good amount of time with her elderly grandparents while we are at work. I had considered ABC Mouse for her to use while with them so she could have some educational interactive entertainment while at their house since we see their commercials all the time on the Disney Channel. I heard mixed reviews about them and so I couldn’t quite commit to paying the monthly subscription fee. That’s when I stumbled upon Khan Academy Kids. It’s completely ad free and very educational. My daughter loves it and can navigate with ease. Her grandparents love sitting with her and doing the different activities together.

Great learn app. I’ve have 5 kids and have gone through a lot of learning apps. I’ve been very happy with Kahn Academy Kids. My older kids use the Kahn Academy website for help with math and I love that they have something great for younger kids. The closest comparison that I’ve seen is ABC mouse which requires a monthly subscription (which I have had- I like Kahn Academy Kids better). I really can’t believe this app is free. I would say that this is more along the lines of a “learn together” experience with parent and child rather than a give it to your kid in the grocery store while they are crying type of app. My preschooler can and does do it on his own but this is a legit learning app, not just entertainment with the label “educational.”

Parent options. I enjoy the app for my kids when I allow them screen time but I wish there was an option to not allow them to exit each lesson or to swipe a certain way to exit the current lesson. I have an issue with one of my kids exiting a lesson if they don’t enjoy the current one and continually playing the rain song. I would like to say thank you for updating the app and allowing parents to choose whether they want their children access to exit a lesson or block the library (to focus on the learning path). I’m changing my review to 5 stars now.

Favorite free learning app but too much junk food!. We have loved khan Academy for many years for both my husband and myself and our child! I truly appreciate the amazing tool that you all provide for free. However it is very important for us to build a healthy lifestyle foundation for our children, and this app uses way too much junk food in the lessons. We are very careful about my sons that has type one diabetes runs in our family and he has never had ice cream or cookies, cakes or candy. I think it’s so sad that such an Amazing Ave., Hass to use ice cream for accounting, or cookies as an incentive. In general they do a great job, but why not change out the junk food or healthy alternatives ?

Absolutely superior to ABCmouse!!!!!!. Love it! Love it! Love it! My kids can Easily navigate through the app. The directions for all the learning exercises are articulated perfectly so my kids(ages 1,3, and 5) can easily comprehend and understand the objectives without my wife and I having to constantly intervene. I feel this creates a more organic learning experience for them. Khan kids academy also creates a truly fun and exciting learning experience for my kids. They used to love watching Netflix on their iPads now all they want is khan kids academy. I can’t believe these guys aren’t charging for this app. I feel This is the exact kind of application the great Steve Jobs envisioned when he created the iPad. Great job guys👍🏾 thank you.

Great and free!. I love Khan Academy so I was excited to see they have a kids app and for kindle as well. I heavily curate what my son plays on his tablet and this app makes the cut easily he love the new instruments and bugs he collects. I know they add new content regularly but the library is great and the last I knew my son had gone through all of the books. I am a pretty political guy and have been happy to see that there isn’t anything that would make me hesitate to recommend this or let my son play on it. Thanks for the quality content. My son is already reading and knows a lot and it is in no small part to this app.

Great toddler app. My 3.5 year old loves this app. Since she’s a little on the young side, I LOVE that it lets her get things wrong and instead of penalizing or making wrong noises, it tells her what she tapped on and lets her keep going. I like that it introduces her to a lot of subject areas and she really likes practicing writing letters. She gets really excited about the videos and tells me all about what she just watched. She can’t read, but she navigates the app very well and really never asks me to help her with it. I also really appreciate it doesn’t lock out features or play ads all the time to try to get us to spend money on what was supposed to be a free app. Kudos and thank you for a truly free app for little kids!

Great addition to Unschooling!. As an unschooling mom of 3, we do things a bit differently. A part of our schedule is a learning app and the Khan app has become the “game” of choice for my older kiddos. They love it and often play during their free time (which is a big win for any mom). The content is wonderful and they stop and tell me about their progress every step is the way often not realizing how much they are learning in the process. Thank you for making a exceptional learning app that doesn’t break the bank or have obnoxious ads every 5 seconds.

THE perfect kids app. I wish all kids apps were this interactive. My son actually gets out of his seat with all the fun songs and games. My daughter uses this app as well on a separate profile. There are soooo many options for each specific age group. They can pick their own avatars for it, the characters are friendly but not overly cheesy, and they are encouraged with positive feedback even when they slip on an answer. It’s just a very well made. Quality animation, educational and entertaining. And it’s all free with no ads! No sneaky way for kids to buy anything because there isn’t anything for sale.

Great app. This is really a great app and it’s actually free no annoying add-on to continue crap like soo many others. My son loves it he plays and learns everyday and it makes it easy for me when I don’t have any lesson planned for the day.. it has a good variety of problem solving and alphabet word games, counting ect. I’m super impressed! it’s better and easier to use than the payed for apps we have like abc mouse. I give this 5 stars because it honestly hasn’t once tried to get money or upgrade or anything just purely educational and easy to use for a 4 year old! Thank you for creating this app!! Recommended 5/5

This App is Exactly What I Was Looking For!. Khan Academy Kids is literally perfect! I spent forever trying to find a free educational app for my toddler (not yet 2) that she could play with while I put her sister to sleep or during car rides. Everything else I found was filled with ads, or was too advanced for her, repetitive, and didn’t work with my parental controls so that she couldn’t get into my stuff (call/text people & delete things) while on my phone. She loves the songs and games, and has learned so much from this app! She gets so excited and it’s helped her start verbally talking more! I’m so happy I found this. I can’t rave about it enough!

Miracle Buzzing Bees ELEC. Miracle Buzzing Bees Early Learning Center loves Khan Kids! It is the BEST FREE educational app out there. It allows you to tailor activities for different age groups and grades. Being a childcare center with mixed ages it allows us to introduce the app to toddlers to explore through and complete age appropriate activities. The preK student’s are pros at navigating the app because they have been using it for a couple years. It is interactive and easy to operate for students and teachers. One of the best parts for teachers, the app generates data for your student’s completed activities so theres no extra grading required on your part.

Guilt-free screen time. You know we all feel bad when we have to hand over the iPad to the toddler because we need to get something done… Well no more! With this app he is doing something genuinely educational while he has his screen time. Perfectly designed for a toddler’s learning pace. He loves it and is really learning. We have been doing 20ish minutes most days for a couple months now. Now, he understands first and last in line, can count to 10 and recognize all the numbers by sight, and knows the entire alphabet (can even spell his own name!). He isn’t even three yet. This is awesome. And free! Keep up the good work, Khan Academy. I will definitely be donating towards it.

Reading. I really like the Khan Academy kids app for my 4 years old. All the activities are valuable and great. However, I feel that the reading section seems fast-paced for an early learner/beginner level. Additionally, when the word is being read, it’s font is changed to blue. With fast-paced reading and blue font over black is hard to differentiate. Can you change that blue to a more catchy color, like red? Also, can you lower the reading pace, so kids can follow along easily (including all those who are non-native speakers)? I hope you find my feedback useful. Thank you!

Sweet lessons, appealing interface. The primary user of this app in our home is almost 3. He seems to enjoy it & has no trouble using the interface/navigating through pages etc. He doesn’t seem to find it quite as entertaining as some other edutainment apps (Sesame St, ABC Mouse) however *I* think it is teaching him more interesting concepts & appreciate that it isn’t as “flashy”. I went looking for something to allow him to self entertain/learn & feel a sense of parity with his older brother who is of course now doing all his school work at home on a computer & needs more of my time during the day. I wish I’d found Kahn Academy before those others I might have stuck with it alone.
