“★★★★★
Intuitive, Effortless, Fun!
”I’ve been wanting to teach my 4 year old some Telugu words and this is the perfect app for it. The design is clean, sophisticated and intuitive. My son absolutely loves dressing up the animals and without him realizing, his Telugu vocabulary has grown. It’s exciting to watch him learn and I’m looking forward to using more of Shoonya apps as his proficiency grows.”

Amazing App for Children!
”This app has been an amazing resource for introducing Hindi to my children! A favorite of my 6 and 4 year old daughters!! We have been using the app to practice vocabulary and other useful language tools. My son also has been using the app to practice the English alphabet. Developers seem to always be adding features and fixing bugs. A must download for families with young children.””
