If spelling homework means groans and negotiation — you're not alone

Most children don't dislike words; they dislike worksheets. Inkwood wraps the Year 3–6 vocabulary and spelling curriculum inside mystery stories, so practice becomes the part of the day they look forward to — and you get to stop being the homework enforcer.

Questions parents ask

 

What ages is Inkwood for?

Inkwood is built around the Key Stage 2 curriculum (Years 3–6, ages 7–11) and the vocabulary expected in 11+ entrance exams. Confident younger readers enjoy it too.

Is the first chapter really free?

Yes — create a free parent account and your child gets the full first chapter of every story (all seven adventures), no card details needed. They're yours to keep whether or not you ever subscribe.

What does a subscription include?

Everything: every chapter of every Inkwood adventure, plus new games and chapters as they're released — including two vocabulary practice mini-games — for every child on your account.

What devices does it work on?

Inkwood runs in the browser — nothing to install. It works on laptops, desktops and tablets.

Can I cancel easily?

Monthly plans cancel in one click from your parent account — no phone calls, no retention screens. Passes are one-off payments that simply expire, so there's nothing to cancel.

Ready when they are

Chapter one is free and takes about twenty minutes — and when one story ends, six more are waiting. It might just end the homework battle for good.
