## What is The Big Book of Words?

The Big Book of Words is a perfect app for babies, toddlers and beyond. Released by Graphiclife, who also made the very popular “The Big Picture Book”. 

This app teaches the youngest app-users new words by viewing more than 60 strikingly beautiful illustrations made by artist Jenny Ekdahl. The images of various objects are divided into six categories – Animals, Baby animals, At the zoo, Colors, Vehicles and Fruits & Vegetables. Narration is included in English as well as five other languages: Swedish, Spanish, Norwegian, French and Polish.

This app is a perfect choice as your child’s first app. The pictures each look beautiful and are artistically drawn in a way that even the smallest of children will enjoy. 

Having many languages to choose from is especially helpful for bilingual families or if one is interested in teaching a child words in a foreign language. 

Also included in The Big Book of Words are two mini games – "Memory" and "Find it". "Memory" is a classic-style memory game where one turns cards over, looking for images to match in order to make pairs. In "Find It" the player taps one of four images which correspond to a word which is also narrated, testing the player’s knowledge of what they have learned. These games will appeal to toddlers and preschoolers, making this app an activity that babies as well as older children can share together, an excellent choice for a family app.

### 5/5 — Gorgeous illustrations!

*2013-11-18, version 1.0*

Just like the The Big Picture Book app they make, but with illustrations instead of pictures. I really like the clean interface, and ability to switch between multiple languages. Buttons are large and easy to access.  I am not generally a fan of flash card style apps but this goes much further- there are games to reinforce learning- a memory game and a quiz style "find the ___" game.  As in the picture based version, I really like how there is no negative reinforcement- if an answer is wrong no sound is made- the child simply tries again until the correct answer is chosen- then there is a pleasant "ping" sound, along with the vocabulary word spoken again. - this reinforcement style is a good fit for children with special needs too.
