Collective Nouns
Learn fun names for animal groups with Ollie the Owl
Did you know a group of owls is called a parliament? Or that lions live in a pride and crows gather in a murder? Collective Nouns turns these wonderful, weird animal facts into a colourful learning game the whole family will love.
Designed for curious kids aged 4+, join Ollie the Owl on a candy-coloured safari and discover the special names for hundreds of animal groups — perfect for curious kids, classrooms and trivia-loving grown-ups.
Browse an illustrated library of over 240 animals and their collective nouns. Tap any animal to see its single, plural and collective names, and hear each one read aloud with built-in text-to-speech — wonderful for early readers and tricky pronunciations.
Three fun ways to play

- Questions — a set quiz of 5, 10 or 20 questions for a quick round.

Each mode comes in Easy and Hard difficulty, so it grows with your child. Right answers burst into confetti, build winning streaks, and earn cheerful encouragement from Ollie.
