## What is Busy Shapes & Colors?

The best color & shape app for toddlers!

A fun, motivating, and highly intuitive playground to learn the names of 11 shapes and 11 colors, specially designed for toddlers and preschoolers. Surprise! our cute penguins entertain children as they progress through the levels.

Busy Shapes & Colors’ game play is simple, perfectly adapted to toddlers, it is specifically designed to sharpen their fine motor skills. Also, as children progress through the levels, they encounter new challenges, maintaining their level of interest and engagement. For instance, fun effects on the shapes increase the level of rapidity and dexterity needed.

Based on the Award-winning Busy Shapes app, this game is 100% intuitive, making it ideal preschoolers. From the onset, children can choose to focus on colors or shapes or mix them together. No matter which path they choose, they will regularly discover a cute penguin animation, keeping them motivated to go further.

### 4/5 — Some bugs

*2026-07-12, version 2.0*

I recently bought the full version of the app. I love it and my three year-old really loves it as well. It’s very simple interface no distraction just pure learning with shapes and colours. It’s easy to use. I also love that it has multiple language options so your child can learn it in many languages.

My only problem is that as you progress some of the more advanced levels have bugs. the shape just freezes , doesn’t move or get into the hole.
so either I have to reset the whole game or let my child play another level. and this didn’t happen just one and all the levels whether it’s colour learning shape learning. So there is a specific bug that’s causing it I don’t know if the support team order the coding team is still reviewing this game but it would be worth fixing giving that we pay money for it
