There are many Squeebles in our stable and some pop up more often than others. Flozz is a rarity, so in celebration of her, a few facts: Flozz is as stretchy as an elastic band; she collects paper clips that she uses to make sculptures of famous pop stars; her hobby is exploring caves.

Our Squeebles Times Tables Connect app always shows exactly how and why children have won squeebles or stars (in this case, for answering 25 questions correctly overall), so that there’s a clear line between their efforts and a reward. Find out more: https://keystagefun.co.uk/connect/about/

Squeebles apps contain in-depth stats to keep parents/teachers in touch with their children’s learning. But many also contain child-friendly stats, where they can review which Squeebles they’ve earned, how many stars they have to trade in, and a rough progress overview.

Children need lots of motivation while learning, and we’ve tried to offer this in multiple ways in our Squeebles Times Tables Connect app. While some might be incentivised by attempting to beat their best time or enter the high score board, others might prefer earning rewards less closely related to their learning. For this, they can focus in earning Squeebles, turns on the River Rapids mini game, and stars that they can trade in for different boats for use within the game. Find out more here: https://keystagefun.co.uk/connect/about/

The English language contains dozens of contractions. In the Squeebles Punctuation app, children can practise decoding them. Find out more: https://keystagefun.co.uk/literacy-apps/squeebles-punctuation/

Our very first Squeebles Times Tables app was created in 2009, based entirely on the things we wanted for our own children’s learning. Several iterations later, that thinking still underpins everything we do (even though the child who inspired it is now 21).

11/05/2023

The Squeebles Spelling Test app is also a great place to practise spelling words in other languages too. Simply create a custom test in the Parent/Teacher Zone.
