What it is
Reading Eggs is an online reading program for children ages 2–13, with instruction in phonics, phonemic awareness, sight words, vocabulary, comprehension, and reading for meaning. Children take a placement test, then work through self-paced lessons that adapt to their level. The home pricing page lists 692 interactive reading lessons, 716 printable worksheets, and more than 4,000 children’s books. A family dashboard displays completed lessons, books read, estimated reading age, and quiz scores. Reading & Math includes Mathseeds, an early math program for ages 3–9. Homeschool Max adds lesson and book assignment, detailed reporting, a Teacher Toolkit, and Read-Aloud Fluency recording. Reading Eggs works on web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android; the mobile app is available for iPad and Android devices. Plans cover up to four children: Reading & Math costs $13.99 a month billed monthly or $99.99 a year billed yearly. Homeschool Max costs $41.90 a month billed monthly or $299 a year billed yearly. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. The company says it does not use behavioral ad targeting for students or children.
