Large images, clear layout, natural pronunciations. Who is it for? Ages 1–5 for the picture-book experience and early discovery of fruits and vegetables. Ages 3–15 for language learning and fruit and vegetable vocabulary. How it works The interface lets a child, alone or with an adult, explore each fruit or vegetable, see the picture, and hear its name read aloud.
