Starfall can be a website that also provides educational fun through games, videos, crafts and storytelling while teaching basic computer skills. This website is exceptional at teaching and developing reading comprehension and phonics skills.

Starfall.com is to establish in sections for four stages of reading development, games and activities areas. It features:
o ABCs - In this section, there is an alphabet chart from where kids can click on each letter to discover the sound celebrate and to hear it found in a word. There is also a row of vowels that, when clicked, teach kids the vowels and long and short vowel sounds. A sign language section teaches kids to sign the ABCs.
