Posted by I am a huge fan of Twinkl resources. I’ve been reviewing their platinum membership since February and I don’t want my trial to end! I have no doubt in my mind that I will pay for further subscriptions once this one finishes.
Reasons I love twinkl …
1. It’s SO user friendly.
Twinkl’s website is a joy to use. I can log in and find resources on a specific topic using the search facility or if I’m looking for inspiration maybe have a peek around the ‘What’s New’ section. If I want to support the boys in a certain area of learning you can see they’re easy to find! An added bonus is that the Twinkl website is really pretty! A real pleasure to use.
2. The resources are relevant and interesting.
There are plenty of worksheets around on t’interweb that will help you teach your child a bit of mathematics, but the worksheets you download from twinkl are colourful and fun with modern and relevant topics. Maths doesn’t have to be boring! On top of that, you also have access to a dedicated SEN section of the website which focuses on resources geared toward SEN children, though I have used several with my preschooler.
3. You get more than just worksheets.
Sure, worksheets are super helpful, but if you need a lesson plan, ideas for educational games or even support from other teachers – it’s all here for you. Are you looking for a teaching job? Twinkl’s got it covered in their handy tools section. There’s so much more, too. Recommended book list, their own blog, a super forum and even resources suitable for classroom displays.
4. It’s great value for money.
At £39.95 for the most ‘expensive’ subscription, twinkl offers absolutely wonderful value for money. That works out to just over £3.30 a month – I would pay more than that for a week if it meant having an endless stream of inspirational ideas at my disposal. Also, you don’t actually have to pay a penny to use twinkl – there are hundreds of resources available for free!
5. The customer service is second to none.
When setting up my account, there were a couple of hiccups. Like, I’d already set one up and forgotten. Then I didn’t know my password. I was a bit of a pain, actually. However, I emailed twinkl for help and they were really lovely. Friendly, helpful and efficient – what more could you ask of a customer service employee?
Don’t just take my word for it. Let me show you how appealing the resources are from twinkl.
So now you’ve seen how wonderful twinkl is, you’re going to want to try it, right?

That sounds brilliant. I’ll check it out over the summer holidays and do a little home-ed with Freddy so he doesn’t forget everything he’s learned at school!

Ooh I’ve never heard of Twinkl before but i really like the look of those resource sheets!
What a great way to keep and teach the children how become more organised. Mine are pretty good as a rule. but they have there moments.
I love Twinkl too, and if I were still teaching I would be using them all the time. I think once Luka starts school I will do more with Bella and perhaps renew my own subscription!

I love the different ways to read stories. My two love reading but get distracted with normal books so it would be great to have some ideas to keep them engaged enough to finish a story
I love Under the Sea
I love so many of the resources, especially the pirate story board!
I’ve never heard of Twinkl but I love the idea of Sensory stories 🙂
I like the alphabet bunting.
The word mats are very useful to start writing 🙂
I love the Sensory story plans
My little boy has sensory problems so the stories would be great. He has learning difficulties and is a little behind with reading and writing than his peers so this would be a great resource for me to help him catch up x
The sen section would be really helpful!!!!
The early years section looks really interesting (though to be fair it all does!)
Would love to win this xx
