Great learning and great fun.
This is a great app for teaching children phonetics by primarily associating the starting letters of animals to the sound they represent. The app is highly polished and functions well. It has a nice story to carry your child around an island. It was nice to be able to have a variety of puzzles or tasks along the way.
It incorporates so many good elements that keep kids attention — bright graphics, clear and fun sounds, trains and stickers! It does this all while actually teaching the child the build blocks of reading.
There are more areas on the island to unlock or you can continue to play this area until your child masters it.
Settings options are great, functional without being too complex. I also thought it was cleaver to have a speaker icon on each screen to repeat the task at hand. I must admit, I needed to hear what sounds I was supposed to be finding once.
Well done.
