### 5/5 — Very enjoyable

*2010-10-20*

My 3 year old is drawn to the clear, crisp graphics and the many animals with their sounds.  She laughs at the 'wrong' animals being kicked off of the game. Very enjoyable to the both of us.

### 5/5 — Old macdonald

*2010-10-18, version 0*

Loeschware have done it again, my kids just won't put this down, when they're not playing it, they're singing it! Love the donkey...

### 5/5 — Bigger and better!

*2010-10-18*

My kids enjoyed the one on my iPhone, but now they prefer playing apps on my iPad. Anyways, the graphics are crisp and and it is fun to see the details of the animals & farm now.

### 1/5 — No sound?!!

*2023-04-25*

I can't introduce this to my preschoolers without the sound. Boring

### 1/5 — No sound on this new version

*2013-05-05*

I have had this app for about two years. It was great. All three of my boys love placing the animals in their spots on the farm and hearing the song.  Over and over and over again. Today I updated the app and now there is no sound. With sound it's a 4 or 5 star app. Without the sound?  It's not even worth one star. Please fix

### 1/5 — No sound

*2013-04-27*

We have the latest iPad & downloaded the app started it up and...No Audio!!!

This app is hit or miss with audio so just determine if the risk is worth $2.

### 2/5 — Sound issues

*2012-08-24*

This is my son's favorite app, when the sound works. The link for app help from the app store does not work,but help can be found online.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app 8 or 9 times at this point and still no sound. We are both disappointed.

### 3/5 — Okay

*2011-01-13*

The only thing I don't like about the app is that my two year old has a difficult time spinning the "wheel" to get to a particular animal.  It is quite touchy and spins in the opposite direction than he is pushing.

### 4/5 — Great app for introducting kids to a farm and a twist on the classic

*2013-04-28*

Growing up in New England and having animals - I was excited to see this app.  My son loves this app on the iPad with the original music, all of the different animals and sounds as well as the interactive farm.  The graphics are bright and the app is easy to follow along to.

### 4/5 — frustrating

*2011-10-18*

This app is ok, but our young one finds it difficult to pick the animals from the wheel, it needs to be changed as it is very frustrating, otherwise good.
4 stars, make it more user friendly for little ones & it'll be 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2013-04-23*

I use this in speech therapy sessions! Very cute and a classic song! A lot of fun surprises and many language opportunities!! Great foe 2-5year olds!!!!

### 5/5 — Fun and interactive

*2013-01-12, version 1.1*

Fun and interactive game for the kids and er ...adults!

### 5/5 — Toddler's favorite

*2012-06-20*

This is bar none my toddler's favorite app.  He would play it all day if I let him.  Graphics and sounds are fun and well done.

### 5/5 — Like the Update

*2011-12-23, version 1.1*

Glad to see the app support auto rotate now....thanks LoeschWare for the update!

### 5/5 — So silly

*2011-10-29*

And tons of fun with an educational twist! :0)

### 5/5 — Granny's grandkids.

*2011-05-03*

I have 7 (almost 8 now) grandchildren, and this is the perfect app for the 1-3 age range. The younger ones first starting out with the app have challenges with the spinning wheel, but then their finger coordination rapidly improves and they master the wheel. They all have their own technique for playing this game. The music is catchy and animal renderings are darn cute. We've had 5 grandkids love this game, and one more on the way!

### 5/5 — Cute

*2010-12-19*

Grand Kids are addicted to the iPhone version, now the iPad version.

### 5/5 — 2 Year Old Loves it again on the iPad

*2010-11-22*

One of the first kids games I purchased for my new iPad.  My grandson is a big fan of the iPhone version.

### 5/5 — An innovative twist on a classic.

*2010-11-02*

Educational and fun, I don't mind that my little girls return to this app again and again. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Little thumbs up!

*2010-11-02*

When I babysit my young cousins (ages 2 & 4), I like to use the iPad for a bit. I was happy to find this one for the iPad. They loved it. I think they were captivated by all of the different animals with their sounds as well as the interactive farm.
