Teach Your Monster: A Year of Impact in 2024

2024 has been an incredible year for Teach Your Monster, with millions of children benefiting from our fun, educational games that inspire confidence and a love of learning. None of this happens without you! Here’s how we’ve made a difference together this year…

Building Confidence with Numbers
Since the launch of Number Skills Stage 3 in August, children have played the new mini-games 3.5 million times! This research-backed, curriculum-aligned numbers game is helping children aged 3 to 6 practise their number skills and grow in confidence in a way that’s both fun and educational, whether at school or at home.

Inspiring a Love of Reading
Our flagship game, Teach Your Monster to Read, welcomed an incredible 3 million new players in 2024, helping children around the world take their first steps into reading. Meanwhile, the delightful Reading for Fun game has been played 35 million times this year! With its quaint village setting and over 70 books to explore, children have read more than 30 million books in the game so far. One parent shared their thoughts with us:

“My daughter loves this game. She loves the books and the monsters that she interacts with. Thank you for developing such great games!!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Encouraging Adventurous Eating
Adventurous Eating
helps children explore a variety of fruits and vegetables, and it continues to thrive, with 3,000 children playing every day. Designed with Dr Lucy Cooke, an expert in children’s eating habits, this game complements early years food education and was recognised as a finalist in the Games for Change 2024 Awards in the Health and Wellness category!

Supporting New Beginnings
Starting school can be a big milestone, and our brand new comic First Day Nerves has been a comforting resource for many families. Downloaded over 40,000 times this year, this beautifully illustrated comic (created with input from child psychologist Dr Angharad Rudkin) helps ease children into their early school days. It’s free to print in colour or black and white.

Thank you for your support
None of this would be possible without YOU, our wonderful community! By playing, sharing, and purchasing the apps, you’re directly supporting our not-for-profit mission to give millions of children the best start in life through learning, fun and play. Every penny goes back into creating new games and resources to empower children.

Thank you for making 2024 a year of incredible impact! ❤️
