ABC READING EGGS

ABC Reading Eggs was created by a highly experienced team of Australian primary school teachers, writers and developers to help children become fluent and proficient readers. The various levels of Reading Eggs and Reading Eggspress makes reading real books, improving spelling skills and building reading comprehension highly engaging for kids aged 6 to 13.

To access this program at home, simply follow these simple steps:

2. Enter your child’s login details in the Member’s Login section.

If your child does not know their personal login or password please contact their classroom teacher.

If your child logs in after school hours at home, you will need to select one of these three options:

1. Sign up or a new parent account on ABC Reading Eggs – this allows you to monitor your child’s progress and achievements.
2. Link my child to my existing ABC Reading Eggs account – This means that your child’s school account will be attached to your parent dashboard.
3. Skip this step – Simply click on this option if you want your child to commence the school subscription at home.
