A few things worth knowing

Small questions. Clear answers.

What is Baby Vocab?

Baby Vocab is a premium high-contrast picture-card app for iPhone and iPad. Its full library pairs 520 black-and-white illustrations with recorded spoken words for calm, parent-led exploration of animals, food, vehicles and everyday objects.

What makes it Montessori-inspired?

A deliberately simple presentation, familiar subjects and room to follow your child’s curiosity. You choose the pictures, pace and whether words or audio appear. Montessori-inspired describes our design approach, not a certification or a complete Montessori curriculum.

How many cards are free?

The permanent starter pack has 12 words: cat, dog, house, door, ball, car, tree, apple, banana, cup, book, baby. Optional monthly, yearly or lifetime access unlocks the full 520-card library.

Do the pictures and spoken words work offline?

Yes. All 520 illustrations and recorded words are bundled in the app. Browsing and playback do not require a Baby Vocab account or internet connection. Apple manages purchases and restore, which may require a connection.

Is Baby Vocab available on the App Store?

Baby Vocab is preparing for its public App Store debut. The website lets you explore the artwork and product now; our verified public download link will appear on the Get the app page when the release is confirmed.
