Another lovely, artsy app by treebetty! The illustrations are beautifully done and so delightful! Can't wait for the next one!!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful design; kids love it.

*2013-12-08*

Un-annoying sounds and graphics. Had lite version forever, but worth the upgrade.

LOVE the new multilingual options!! Had JUST been searching for a Spanish kids game of the same quality as PeekAZoo, but couldn't find one. Now I don't even have to keep looking! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Brilliant and simple

*2013-11-16*

My 15 month old loves these. Very easy for him to use and he likes the simple controls. All of these tree Betty apps are fab for first time iPad apps users. Keep em coming... The new farm one is fab.

### 5/5 — best peekaboo

*2013-11-15, version 1.1*

My son loves trains so this one is one of his favorite. Really cute. I love how every page is different on this peekaboo app. A lot of the others only have 1 background with different animals. this one has a different background (train car) for each animal.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2013-11-10*

My son absolutely loves this series of apps.  Highly recommend them.  The details are great, and they're visually very appealing.

### 5/5 — App

*2013-09-28*

Great simple app, my 2 yr old loves it.

### 5/5 — fun game!

*2013-08-08*

my two-year-old loves this app. it's easy for him to use and the fact it's on a train is a definite plus for him.

### 5/5 — Wonderful ap for toddlers!

*2013-06-17*

My two year old son loves this ap. It is easy for him to navigate and he enjoys making all the animals do different things or make noises. The train theme just makes it even more popular with my son. After one weekend he can already name all the animals.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2013-06-14*

What a great app for kids! I love the graphics and my kids did too. So educational and interactive...I love all the peek a boo products for kids! Simple yet elegant!

### 1/5 — Apps not working

*2024-03-12*

There is something wrong with apps. I paid and used for a while. Now, after math question ads popping up and does not want you let in in guided tour. Please, fix this. Otherwise, it’s useless “.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2016-10-16, version 1.6.3*

The game is possibly 62secs long. Not worth $4

### 1/5 — Pricy for so little.

*2015-04-07, version 1.6.3*

This is not worth the money.  Do not buy this app.

### 1/5 — Deleted

*2015-04-07*

My 2 1/2 year old loves trains and animals so I thought this would be a cute app to keep his attention while waiting in grocery lines etc.
There is a train and each car has an animal on it and you press the animal and it makes a sound. That's it. You can't change the animals or get different sounds or play with the train. It got very boring very fast. I'm disappointed I paid for this "game" as there really isn't anything to it.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing!

*2013-11-20*

Keeps crashing

### 2/5 — Eigentlich gut aber funktioniert nicht sauber

*2025-03-26*

Die App wäre toll aber leider funktioniert seit Monaten die Führung nicht mehr. Ohne die Funktion können gerade Kleinkinder die App nicht alleine nutzen, was sie komplett nutzlos macht leider.

### 3/5 — Occasional crashes

*2015-12-10*

I haven't figured out a specific way to reproduce, but my 2 year old routinely makes the crash by pressing things in a certain (random) order.

### 3/5 — Cute but simple

*2013-09-16*

This is a very simple app and perhaps overpriced, but I do like the graphics, and my son enjoys it.  He loves trains, and he especially likes to touch the raccoon and hear the train whistle.

### 4/5 — Great app for babies

*2014-06-17*

My 1-year-old loves this and will have a fit when I turn it off. It's very educational and engaging. My only complaint, this app crashes a lot. Not sure if it's just my ipad or what, but it'll inevitably crash half way through. Otherwise, we love it.

### 5/5 — Very cute!

*2014-12-23*

My son loves this app! Trains are one of his favorites, and the animals are cute!

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great!

*2014-08-11*

Great app. My 18 month old knows what to expect and what to do. He loves the sounds all the animals make. He cracks up every time!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2014-07-01*

Delights the little ones and does not annoy the adults in the room.

### 5/5 — Great for toddlers

*2014-05-16*

Our daughter simply loves all of the peek-a-zoo apps!

### 5/5 — So fun! Great update

*2014-05-05*

We love this app! Great graphics and sounds. We play it every day........

### 5/5 — Extra special with trains!

*2014-05-02*

My son loves all the peek-a-zoo apps, but this one is extra special because it has trains which is one of his three obsessions (cars and constructions vehicles being the others). What is so gratifying to me as a mom is that he learned to be interested in animals with the peek-a-zoo series as a toddler interested in nothing else but trains, cars and construction equipments. He learned the different animals from it. What a great educational app!

### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2014-04-18*

The design is nice and clean, the music and voices are engaging, and it runs smoothly.  My 4 year old loves it, and keeps staring at trains, expecting a lion or a moose to pop out. 

The developer is great with feedback and each app  gets better and better.  Keep it up!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2014-04-18*

My son loves this one and the underwater one especially.

### 5/5 — Great for toddlers

*2014-04-12*

We bought this app after the egg heads app- great for transitioning. Our 23 month old loves the train that pulls the animals and can identify some of the animals from the last app but with more detail. The colors and sounds are great- not annoying like some kid apps. very interactive- teaching our little one fine motor skills! He is still getting used to the touch screen so this app is good if he slips his finger around. Totally worth the price- highly recommend for parents that want a simple educational app that holds interest in your toddler.

### 5/5 — Delighted

*2014-04-01*

My two year old is delighted by this and the other apps they make. Worth the few bucks.
