## What is Baby ABC by PayneBrain?

Baby ABC is a pretend phone made just for babies and toddlers. It's bright, safe, and full of friends.

Little ones love grown-up phones, so Baby ABC gives them their very own: a colorful toy phone with a lock screen, home screen, video calls, cartoons, dance clips and learning games. It stars ten lovable voxel animal friends, each with their own voice.

CALL A FRIEND
• Dial the big rainbow keypad, which says every number out loud, or tap a friend to call
• Pip the bunny, Ziggy the frog, Mango the cat and Daisy the duck pick up right away
• See yourself on the call with the front camera and take turns talking. Your friend listens while your child chats, then babbles back
• Tap a friend to make them giggle! They sneeze, yawn, hiccup and quack, ribbit, meow or roar too
• Surprise! Sometimes a friend calls your little one

LEARN WITH A FRIENDLY TEACHER
• ABC: "This is the letter B! B is for Ball. Can you say Ball?"
• Colors, Shapes and 123 Counting: tap to hear, count along, then play gentle find-it games with cheers and confetti
• Warm, slow, clear teacher voices made for little ears, and lots of "Great job, friend!"
• Outside the lessons, the animals chatter in adorable baby babble, with letters and numbers sprinkled in

WATCH, SING AND DANCE
• Baby TV: The ABC Song, Count to 10, Color Party, Shape Parade, Animal Dance Party and Twinkle Little Star
• Wiggle: swipe through dancing animal friends, each with their own song
• Baby News and Friends Playpen: pretend shows and sticker posts where the answer is always "Goo!"

A WORLD THAT CHANGES WITH THE SEASONS
Friendly smiling pumpkins in October, cozy fall leaves in November, a snowy Christmas in December, and something new all year long.

MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
Full-screen layouts for iPad in portrait and landscape, with big buttons and a home button that's always there for tiny fingers.
