For ages 0 to 5, played together

Little words, big moments.

PeekaSpeak is a few minutes of play a day that you and your child share on one screen. Pika the puppy models a word, your little one has a go, and you cheer on every try.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play, for iPhone, iPad and Android.

Made for the years before the words come easily

Every child talks on their own timeline. PeekaSpeak gives you simple, playful ways to practice the skills that come before and around first words.

First words and sounds

Short "say the word" rounds where Pika says each word first and your child has a go.

Pointing and gestures

Pointing, touching and waving build the communication that comes before speech.

Early learning

Words for animals, food, colors and more, one small skill at a time.

Built for together time

Designed for a grown-up and child side by side, with friendly guidance for you along the way.

How it works

No scores, no buzzers. You know your child best, so you rate each try.

  1. Tell us about your child

    A few quick questions about age and where they are today build a daily plan that fits.

  2. Play for a few minutes

    Pika models a word or sound. Your child has a go, and you tap how it went:

    • Tried
    • Close
    • Said it!
  3. Watch the firsts add up

    Stars and costumes for your child. A timeline of firsts and gentle progress for you, to keep or share with family.

Private by design

We built PeekaSpeak the way we would want it for our own kids.

Questions parents ask

What ages is PeekaSpeak for?

Children from birth to 5 years. The youngest ones mostly enjoy watching, listening and pointing with you; older children say words, sounds and short phrases.

Is it speech therapy?

No. PeekaSpeak is play-based practice for everyday learning. It does not diagnose anything and is not a replacement for a speech-language pathologist or your pediatrician. If you have concerns about your child's development, please talk to them.

Does the app listen to my child?

No. There is no speech recognition. You rate each try yourself, because you know what your child is trying to say better than any microphone does.

Can we use it on more than one device?

Yes. Sign in on your phone and link a family tablet with a short code. Your child's progress stays in sync.

How do I cancel?

Cancel in your Apple ID subscriptions (iPhone and iPad) or Google Play subscriptions (Android). You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.

Where is PeekaSpeak available?

In the United States first, in English.
