I found a weird glitch that puts the game interface in “landscape” mode ### 5/5 — Loves it *2011-12-28, version 1.991* My 2 almost3 year old daughter loves this game and it is educational so I love it too! ### 5/5 — Mommy *2011-12-24, version 1.991* My daughter loves this app and wants to play with it all the time. She loves the different challenges and wants me to play along with her. Definitely a great app for toddlers!! ### 3/5 — :-) *2011-12-12, version 1.97* my 2 year old loved this app especially the photo bit. however I updated it so he could get the Xmas bits and now it won't even open the app, he doesn't understand why it won't work now and gets annoyed!! ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2011-12-10, version 1.97* I love how you guys continue to keep this app up-to-date and adding content. My son continues to play with this even though he's growing up (and onto other things). Keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — My favorite app *2011-11-22, version 1.96* My 15month old and I love this app definitely our favorite and he is even really learning letters and numbers, very much worth the 99cence ### 5/5 — Fantastic !!!!!! *2011-10-25, version 1.95* My 3 year old loves it... And I don't mind the music either! Download it ### 4/5 — How do I change to lower case? *2011-10-21, version 1.95* In your 1.94 update you have stated lower case letters but no where to change it in the app? Otherwise my little girl loves it :) ### 3/5 — Number and Alphabet game issues *2011-10-18, version 1.94* In the number and alphabet game, the second round of numbers fall off the screen and you can't go any further. Otherwise, it looks like a fun game. This is my first experience with an iPod, does this happen all the time? ### 5/5 — Upload needs fix!! *2011-10-17, version 1.94* This is my daughter's favorite game! Please fix it soon. When you play the alphabet or numbers game they fall off the screen after you get the first one right and you can't go any further. ### 5/5 — Perfect toddler app *2011-10-16, version 1.93* Educating and entertaining ! ### 5/5 — Great App, 5 Star *2011-10-16, version 1.93* Of all the educational apps on my phone, this is the one I've had the longest, and I can't delete it because my daughter always wants to go back to it, especially the photo playground area. She likes making her own creations, and gets excited when they add new items to the app every now and then. Easily worth it at double the price. ### 5/5 — Great value, endless fun for my little one! *2011-10-05, version 1.93* My 4 year old loves this game. It's got a lot to do, it's a great value. There are a lot of game modes and she has really been kept busy for some time with this app. I recommend! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2011-09-23, version 1.93* I got this when my son was a year and a half. He learned to recognize numbers all the way up to 20 because of this app! Definitely recommend for younger ones! ### 5/5 — Great app *2011-09-23, version 1.93* This app keeps my son entertained on those long boring shopping trips while packing groceries. He's quickly picked up the song too and sings it very loudly ### 5/5 — Mrs *2011-09-09, version 1.93* My 2 year old and my 4 year old twins love this app, it's great and keeps the occupied for ages, it's brilliant. Also educational so fantastic ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes 3.1.3 *2011-12-31, version 1.991* Had to revert to the previous version. ### 1/5 — Fun but... *2011-10-28, version 1.96* Fun app but the numbers and letters fall off the screen after the first round. Made my 3 yr old daughter not want to play anymore out of frustration. ### 1/5 — Was fine *2011-10-25, version 1.95* Til it stopped loading and publishers failed to address ### 1/5 — Terrible *2011-08-10, version 1.93* My 4 year old whizzed through this. Not challenging at all. The song cannot be turned off in settings. It comes right back on when you try the game again. So loud! Awful graphics. Want my money back. ### 1/5 — Grrrrr! It keeps quitting on us *2010-10-03, version 0* This game keeps quitting on us. At first I thought my son was hitting something to make it exit the game but it keeps doing it to me too. I have never had any trouble with a game until now. If we do manage to get it to run long it really isn't that great of a game. It doesn't mix up the different challenges which makes it so my son gets bored easily. Would better if it ran and had an option to run "random" boards to keep him interested. ### 1/5 — Sound stopped working *2009-10-21, version 0* After the third time playing the sound stopped working.son very upset about this as he enjoyed the alphabet song. Don't buy. Not at least till they fix this ### 1/5 — Mr *2009-06-25, version 0* Sound stopped working ### 1/5 — Very Very Disappointing Game *2009-05-21, version 0* This game is really for children three years old and younger. The find an animal game tells the kids to find THIS animal but does not speak or label the animals name! No learning there. The number matching game only goes up to nine not twenty which is needed for children older then three years old. This game is not at all worth 2.99 and I want my money back. Don't buy this game if your child is older than three! There are MUCH MUCH better games out there for much less than 2.99!!!!!!!!!!! I would rate this negative stars if I could! ### 2/5 — It's an iPhone application, not for iPad *2011-10-28, version 1.96* It's said compatible with iPad, but actually an iPhone application. The window only cover the area as an iPhone screen size in the center of iPad. I want my money back, but it's always failed to connect the link report a problem in the receipt. ### 2/5 — Daughter played it for a few minutes & Moved on *2011-05-23, version 1.92* Daughter played it for a few minutes & Moved on ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Kai Tembo *2022-03-03, version 2.0* The song makes my think of something I like in toys ### 5/5 — We love this app *2022-01-31, version 2.0* We've had this app since our 12yo was about 2 and he loved it back then. We now have a going on 2yo and have reunited with this app for him after finally figuring out the name. So glad I came across a video that showed the name. The little one loves it already! Thanks! ### 5/5 — Thanks for updating! *2018-06-13, version 2.0* This was one of my daughter’s favourite games. So glad you finally updated it for iOS11! ### 5/5 — Pleeeeeeze update! *2017-10-28, version 1.996* Love this for my little granddaughter but it will not download until it’s updated. ### 5/5 — Great App for kids *2013-05-05, version 1.995* My 4 years old was glued to the phone for days after I downloaded this app. He loved all the games, the fact that the app talks to him, and especially the camera game. Well done! ### 5/5 — My son loves it! *2012-06-15, version 1.993* :-) ### 5/5 — Great app! definitely worth the money *2012-05-29, version 1.993* Catchy little theme song, lots of fun. ### 5/5 — Great for my toddlers! *2012-03-28, version 1.992* This app has been great to keep my toddler entertained when we have been out! ### 5/5 — So much fun *2012-03-22, version 1.992* Super catchy theme song. Enthusiastic voice acting that is easy for kids to understand. My kids and I actually spontaneously burst into the theme song, sometimes and make up our own lyrics. ### 5/5 — Love this! *2012-01-15, version 1.992* My two year old loves this app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
