I would definately reccommend this to ESL teachers. ### 2/5 — Seems cool but crashes *2017-03-18* It just crashed twice in a row. The game seemed interactive enough--picking parts for a robot and coloring a bear for example, but then the crashing started. **Developer response:** Thanks for your support! A couple of things to try for those with similar issues: 1. Make sure you have free space on your device by removing old apps no longer in use. 2. Make sure you've updated to the most recent version of iOS If you are still experiencing issues or have any questions, please email us at support@fairladymedia.com Thanks again! :) ### 5/5 — Awesome but... *2017-01-16* When you sweep up the shop, sometimes it's impossible to get in those areas **Developer response:** Thanks for your support! Some of the puzzles can be pretty tricky - we're pretty sure they are all solvable - but if you've found one that isn't - please let us know by emailing us at support@fairladymedia.com. Thanks again! :) ### 5/5 — Good no great no absolutely awesome! *2016-12-28* The "person" that bought this app loves it! I "had to write very nasty app reviews for this person." So I'm glad this is not one. But you should be able to pick what you make and what that child buys!! PERFECT timing for the HOLIDAYS. HAPPY MERRY EVERY THING app creators! ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2016-12-17* What better place for a kid to explore at Christmas, than a toy shop! Nice job!
