Not quite there
I want to preface this review by saying that I’ve only seen the section for 2 year olds.
Every game is just “drag the object” but there’s no feedback for the child for if they got it right or not or any feedback at all for that matter. All the objects kinda just sit there and can be moved indefinitely. I think it’d be a huge improvement if the objects would kinda snap into place once they were say 95% correct and have some sort of animation once the child got them in the right place.
The firefighter game seemed pretty neat until I realized that the video of the teacher just played regardless of whether the interactive part had happened or not. Why not have it stop until the clothes are in the correct spot rather than have the teacher say how good it looks and move on before the child has finished?
For the letters, after getting the letter to the correct place, why not play the sound that the letter makes to help with speech? Maybe even throw in a close up of the teacher’s mouth making the sound of the letter, Ms. Rachel style?
What about some variety in the way the child interacts?
It seems like there’s a ton of promise with this app but overall it seems like it’s just not quite there yet. I plan on canceling the subscription before the free trial is up.

Amazing for small kids!
My two year old has already become addicted to this app. He loves the various videos with animals and has been exploring it every day. Thank you for providing this sort of thing for children!
Really good
The content in the episodes is fun and engaging - great for parents/kids
Fun!
This app is a lot of fun! The episodes are so well-written. Top notch.
