Site Tour

Martha is here to help kids learn lots of new words as they play.

Each game on our site introduces a whole bunch of new words. The more kids play, the more words they'll hear. Play along with them if you can, or talk to them about the games later so they have a chance to practice the new words they've learned.

Before you know it, your kids might come to a consensus about which game is their favorite - especially if the weather forecast is for precipitation.

  Catch!

  It's flying disk time for Martha, Skits, Helen and TD. Martha will ask a question and TD and Helen will offer answers. Kids win a disk when they choose the correct answer; after they win three disks, they get to play catch with Skits! There are some unusual words in here - like ancestor, blaring, and bizarre. Winning these disks will help win word power for your kids!
