Reading simulator for kids to prevent reading disabilities / dyslexia

Problem and implemented solution

Kids are not diagnosed with dyslexia until the 3rd grade. But research has shown that reading interventions are most successful at an early age. This is the dyslexia paradox. If you start the reading intervention at an early age, kids get reading skills as naturally as speaking ability. It’s crucial for people with risks of dyslexia. They can prevent reading issues. Due to early brain neuroplasticity (2 - 6 y.o.), the work of non-functioning areas of the brain is being taken over by neighboring areas. The Reading Simulator is an app for kids that teach reading and prevent reading issues affected by dyslexia. It's based on the Phonics approach (the only proven for dyslexics) with fine motor skills engagement to improve learning and track focus. It's available from the age of 2 and kids can get all the benefits of early brain neuroplasticity.

Description of competitive advantages

The Reading Simulator is an app that utilizes early childhood neuroplasticity and fine motor skill engagement to make reading as natural and inborn as the ability to speak for young children, especially those at risk of developing dyslexia. The app's approach is uniquely tailored to the cognitive capabilities of preschool aged kids, unlike competitors who simply adapt traditional school-based teaching methods through gamification and entertainment. And the early dyslexia screening system warn parents at the time and allows to avoid reading difficulties affected by dyslexia.
