“Read along” highlights the words one by one so everyone keeps the same pace.

Tongue twisters don’t repeat until you have seen them all.

Warm up your tongue

Tongue twisters are short sentences full of similar sounds that are hard to say quickly – and fun to fail at. Pick a level: ★ easy for younger children, ★★ medium and ★★★ tricky ones that even adults stumble over.

Press Read along: the words light up one by one at a slow, medium or fast pace and repeat as often as you choose, so you can say them together. Teachers and speech therapists use them to practise clear pronunciation; actors and presenters use them to warm up. They don’t repeat until you’ve seen them all.
