Leave a Review Shapes Toddler Preschool
Great for toddlers
My 2-year-old loves the quiz "game" (especially the shapes) and has learned some fairly complex shape names (some I didn't even know!). It's great for reinforcing shapes, numbers and letters. He loves choosing a sticker to put on his sticker reward page after the quiz. Only tiny complaints are that it might be nice to have different/harder levels to graduate to in order to keep him interested and challenged. And it would be great if you could organize and move around the stickers on the sticker page. Otherwise this has been a good educational yet fun app!Show lessAbro73
Not bad. 3d shapes not practical
My kids loved this app even before the update. We do like the additional options like the 3 levels. However the top level "3d shapes" is totally impractical and inappropriate. 3d shapes are totally possible for little kids to learn, but not the ones they picked. "Truncated pyramid" & "truncated cone" are confusing for both my 4 yr old & my 7 yr old. How about just sticking to cube, pyramid, cone, sphere, cylinder, rectangular prism, & triangular prism. As a former 8th grade math teacher I've never had to teach anyone about "truncated" 3d shapes. I'm not sure even an 8th grader would know what truncated means? Much less a 4 or 7 yr old who this app is really aimed for.Show lessTiggerkm20
Amazing App!
This app is so amazing, I can't believe it is free! I bought my 2 an 1/2 year old son the teach my toddler learning kit for 60 buck at toys r us. Me and his speech therapist worked with him on his shapes and other things that are included in the kit. The only shape he could point to when you asked him was the circle. I put this app on my phone and he knew all of them within 30 mins. And it stuck with him, he hasn't forgotten. He can say heart, star, and circle but he can point to all of them. This app is truly amazing!! I got tired of it after he learned them all, but still... he knows all of his shapes now thanks to this App!! Please make some apps for the iPad. He did so well with this App that his papaw is buying him an iPad. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make these apps for the iPad! I will be waiting!! :)Show lessCasserole1212
awesome
My 2 year old brother loves this game he figured out how t ostart it all on his own. And when he gets the shape right and the kids in the background say "YEAH" he claps his hands and says it too. He gets so excited!
My advice would be to give more sticker pages, the current one fills up and he can't see his stickers. And to make the voice say the shape louder. At full volume my brother (who has had his hearing checked and it's normal) can't hear the shape. If I repeat the shape he's looking for he can typically find it. Though he's still learning. also maybe some more advanced shapes for those smarty pants kids who learn way fast like my 4 year old sis. She allready knows her shapes but likes to help brother find them. :)
Those would be my ideas. Great app!Show lessbobbinbopbop
Used to be a Great game
This app was great. But as it is updated, it got worse and worse. The sticker page now goes away as soon as a sticker is placed. It used to linger on screen for a second or so, so that the child can admire it if even for a moment. Now it goes away instantly. Kind of defeats the purpose of a sticker page. Secondly, the pause between "touch the" and "rectangle" is such that it reminds us of voice-synth programs of the 80s. The original version did not have this pause and sounded very natural and pleasant. It's a good thing I was able to retrieve the older version (2.9) to replace this one (3.2) via Time Machine or my kid would be quite cranky not being able to look at his sticker page after placing a sticker.
My review for version 1.4:
This is a wonderful and simple app. Our 2 year old loves this game. He just loves the cheering and clapping. The shapes should be more random. There're too many repetitions. We got 5 hexagons in a row once. Also, an option for a female voice would be nice. Another good addition would be the ability to save the sticker page so it can be added onto later. Still one of the finest kids' app!Show lessshumburger
The new update is HORRIBLE
When I read that there was gonna be different shapes I thought like... Octagon or cross or I don't know but what the heck is rhombus about? I hate to be rude but really ? And I don't really like the new voice update either he used to sound nice and now it just sounds too computery and honestly I played it ... :) ok and it made me feel dumb like the way he says pick a stick haha i kinda don't want my daughter to get confused with the rhombus and oopsy and all please change this noone used that word EVER for a diamond so anyways can I like unupdate mine or can you pleeeeease fix this my little girl loves this appShow lessLovemysavior77
Good but could use a few changes
My son enjoys this, if you could make an iPad version that would be great. Also if you would allow the ability to touch shapes without having to wait for it to say "try again, can you find the..." my son will make a mistake then immediately touch the correct shape but it won't recognize his input until after your audio track. And by the time it's done he's selecting a different shape. But overall great app thanks for creating it.Show lessDwoodcock
Nice needs some improvements, don't like the updates to your programs
My 3 yr old really liked this...I like the fact that when they get it wrong it tells them what they picked and repeats what they need to pick...so it actually teaches... The only problem occured when I closed it and restarted and her stickers were gone she wasn't happy.... And sometimes she would put them down to fast ands over something else... Maybe a way to move around the stickers even after putting them down and a way to save them as a page or something would be great improvements.
Edit: I haven't updated eventhough it says there are new things and improvements because of the in app purchases, I hate those! Expecially when a toddler/preschooler is playing with it for multiple reasons! I thought about getting your other products beacuse we liked this but also seethe in apps purchases in there, so no thanks not gonna take the chance that my 3 yr old buys things and possibly the same thing across multiple apps, I I want to buy them I'll get them in the app store you don't have to put it in the game!Show lessTealBee
Toddler Teaser Apps Are Brilliantly Designed!
Toddler Teaser Apps Are Brilliantly Designed!
It is in my humble opinion and as a mother of a 2 1/2-year-old developmentally delayed child that I have to firmly state how well Toddler Teaser knows how a toddler thinks. I have purchased many other toddler apps that I get stuck with never using because of frustrating, opening page, option menus (that are not shown in the screen shot examples) that toddlers have no clue how to use. Toddler Teaser apps start the fun right away on the first page and I cannot thank them enough for it. I will never hesitate to pay full price knowing how well these apps are designed. If it's made by Toddler Teaser, it's the app for us! Thank you, TT, every so kindly for your extremely high quality products. -AShow lessAnmariLinardi
Great Wurh a Couple Suggesttions
My 18-month old loves this. Good times. A few suggestions though:
1. When a shape is tapped stop playing any other sounds. It layers 3 or more "wrong" and "correct" responses and sounds like a jumble.
2. Often he will get corrct shape and tap another immediately after. So it's going though "correct" sequence but then also layers in "try again, touch the crescent" sequence even though he already did. So...lock the screen/sequence quicker once correct shape is selected.
3. May be iPhone problem more than your app but he will have a thumb or other part of hand touching screen and will - at same time - touch correct shape with other finger and it won't register as correct. If he gets frustrated then will start tapping wildly (which is sorta hilarious) or he learns the incorrect shape association. I think you can program that though for multiple-finger touching handling better.
4. Is it possible to lock out the main iPhone button? He likes to press that button. Maybe soon he will learn that means "game over".
Great game though!!Show lessJSVV
