Each day brings a 4-letter (5 guesses), 5-letter (6 guesses), and 6-letter puzzle (7 guesses). A 6-year-old and a 12-year-old can each have a challenge that fits.
Tap the speaker at any time to hear the word read aloud. Connecting sound to spelling is one of the most effective things a speller can do — so we make it one tap.
Standard Wordle feedback that kids who've watched a parent play already understand. Green = right spot, yellow = wrong spot, gray = not in word.
Wordle mechanics were designed for adults. Daily Crush adapts the same structure for children learning to spell — and the learning is real.
Five minutes every day consistently outperforms an hour once a week for spelling retention. A daily puzzle makes five minutes feel like a choice, not a chore.
When you've locked in three letters in their correct positions, completing the word requires thinking about what letter combinations are plausible — exactly the metacognition skilled spellers use automatically.
Every solved puzzle ends with the word's definition and a visual. Kids who solved GLEAM see what gleaming looks like. No flashcard required.
Coming within one or two letters of the answer is more motivating than getting it first try. This is why adults play Wordle daily — and it works the same for kids.
Anonymous play has no limits. Kids with a free account get progression on top.

Every day at midnight US Eastern time. Each day brings three brand-new puzzles — one 4-letter, one 5-letter, one 6-letter.
The three difficulty tiers cover a wide range. A 6-year-old can tackle the 4-letter puzzle while a 12-year-old works on the 6-letter challenge — same household, same daily ritual.
Words are drawn from SpellCrush's curated spelling-bee word database — real, age-appropriate vocabulary worth knowing, not random dictionary grabs.
