🪁 Save the Kite

Guess the hidden word one letter at a time before the kite loses all of its bows.

How to play

Read the clue and tap a letter (or type it). If the letter is in the word, it appears in every place it belongs. If not, the kite loses a bow. Find the whole word before the bows run out.

⌨️ Keyboard: type letters directly; Backspace undoes; Enter checks typed answers.

What it teaches

Guessing letters encourages students to think about letter frequency and common patterns – vowels first, then common consonants like t, s and r. It builds spelling knowledge and logical elimination in a low-stakes way.

Levels: Animals (4-letter words, 7 bows) · Things (5–6 letters, 6 bows) · Big words (8–10 letters, 6 bows)
