Play A Rhyme at a Time More in The Quiet Deep

How it plays

A grid of words, each with a partner that rhymes with it. Your child taps one, then hunts for the one that sounds the same at the end. Best played out loud.

What it's for

Hearing which words end the same way. Your child sets the difficulty on the first screen — how fast things move, how many there are — so the game meets them where they are rather than deciding they aren't good enough.

There is no score to lose, no timer running out on them, and no way to fail. A level ends when it's won. That's the only way it ends.

What it costs, and what we collect

Nothing, and nothing. There is no account, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. Which games have been played is remembered on your own device and is never sent anywhere. The full version is here, and it's short.

The words went out walking, a cat and a lime, A frog and a log had begun a long climb, They paired off together, in tune and in chime, And found one another A Rhyme at a Time!

Where it lives

A Rhyme at a Time lives in The Quiet Deep — words and spelling. It works on a phone, a tablet or a classroom screen, and once it's been opened it keeps working with no signal at all.
