I am trying to decided between Explode the Code Online or Clink N Read for my kinder child. She goes to school but I am wanting to use somethign to help her learn to read at home. She loves working on the computer. We have used headsprout and she liked the first 30 or so lessons but now does not like it anymore. Thank you for your feedback.

my kids both loved reading eggs (which isn't an option, lol). as for ETC or click-n-kids, i'm not sure. which one is cheaper? that would be a big factor for me. my daughter also did headsprout & didn't care for it...but i will say, it really worked!

My 6 DS is doing Headsprout. He loves it and is learning. It is pricey.

DD (7yo) uses Explode the Code Online. Last year, we used Calvert and she HATED reading...lots of tears. This year, I set the timer for 1/2 hour each day and have her work just that amount (more seems to be tedious for her...1/2 hour keeps her excited about her lesson). She started reading on her own! We go to the library, and she finds books (sometimes not even the Easy Readers) and reads them!!!! I'm not saying that she's a fluid reader, but the drive is there, and she's really started picking up the "how to" of word dissection.
