### 5/5 — Good app

*2017-09-26, version 1.1*

This app is fun and educational. Plus It's easy to use.

### 5/5 — A must

*2016-10-04, version 1.1*

I love this app. There are many apps out there with one picture to teach kids vocabulary but never do you find an app with 2 word utterance; noun+verb or verb+noun. Ex. Cat eat or boy run. As a speech therapist I was so happy to add this app to my iPad; and I did not disappoint. I love that students laugh at the different sounds for each word, enjoy getting to hear and see the picture and most of all as a SLPA to not have to try and kind materials to teach noun+verb. This is a must and I recommend it to moms, preschool teachers, speech therapist and anymore who has a kids or works with kids.
