The limited set provided in this game are taken from the full game which contains 75 four-letter phonetically spelled words.

This limited version contains only a few words from the set provided in the full version. The first spelling game of the sequence, called Bubble Spell, was intended as the first level of spelling. Kids Learn to Spell with Bubbles 2 Free is an introduction to Bubble Spell 2 which is the second level of spelling for youngsters. It contains four letter words which use the long and short vowel sounds and simple consonant blends.

The Game
When the game begins, your youngster selects the position of the missing letter. A spelling word appears in the left hand corner with an underscore for the missing letter. An image representing the word appears in the right hand corner. Translucent floating bubbles float across the screen containing a random set of letters. The young speller chooses the correct letter to complete the spelling. As an example, if the youngster selected the first letter position, the word flag would appear as _lag with a flag image on the right. A pleasant voice says the word "flag" and the youngster searches the floating bubbles to find the correct letter among random letters. If the correct letter is chosen, they are rewarded with an audio and visual positive response. If an incorrect letter is chosen,they are gently encouraged to try again with a reduced number of selections. Additionally, for some incorrect selections, a helpful bee appears on the screen. If selected, the bee gives the phonetic sound of the missing letter. When a youngster completes the set of words a harp notifies them of progression to another set of words.
