Half an hour of French

The app is cute but has only a few games that my 5-year old played in 30 minutes. Not worth the money spent.

Short but good

It covers: animals, colours, body parts, food, and numbers. There are only 4-5 levels so itโ€™s over quite quickly, but itโ€™s still a good base for kids who are starting out. My 4yo likes it and is learning quickly from it.

Brilliant app

I have just recently downloaded this app to use with my 5 year old. We are learning together and so far everything is brilliant. I think the vocabulary is enough for my son at this stage and the games are challenging enough without him feeling frustrated. Would recommend.

Much too slow

In many of the โ€œgamesโ€ that are a race against time, the computer is much too slow between words which invariably means my daughter runs out of time and gets increasingly frustrated. Wish I had read more reviews before I bought this. Duolingo for kids is great but is just too short.

I like this app

I have this app and itโ€™s really good because Children can learn on this app and they donโ€™t even know theyโ€™re learning

Good but short. Priced WAY TOO HIGH.

This is a well designed and implemented language app for kids. However, my child finished it in a couple hours. He was done with it before we got the itunes bill from Apple. So in my opinion it is far too expensive for a language learning program a child will be done with that soon. Either reduce the price significantly or increase the amount of content significanlty.

GREAT

It is the best French app ever but there is one little thing and that is I think there should be one more level apart from that it is awesome

Hard but worth it

It was hard at first but now I know more French

Perfect for toddlers/kids, fun and adapts to them

My two-year-old daughter absolutely adores this app. It is helping her build foreign language vocabulary extremely quickly. She is able to navigate and use it all on her own due to itโ€™s very simple and intuitive interface. In each of four cities, the app is structured into learning exploration sessions which unlock progressively, each followed by a quiz in the form of a fun game. There are four quiz/games in each city. The app is smart in that it remembers which words she needs to work on and gives her more practice on those in the games. She gets little trophies after the quiz/games, and she can see all of her trophies in the little trophy case available in the upper right hand corner on every city. Bronze, silver, and gold levels help the parents to see at a glance how the learning is coming along. This is absolutely worth every penny and so much more, and is the best vocabulary building app for toddlers which I have found. My sincerest thanks to the developer who put so much time and care into creating a wonderful language app for kids in this age range.

Disappointed

I bought the French version today for $3.99, and my daughter went through the whole thing in under an hour. There is not very much content. Cute app and worked well but not worth the cost.
