A little matching. A lot of color. iColor turns coloring time into playful practice with numbers and letters. Pick a colorful tool, find its matching symbol, and tap to fill the picture. Only the matching color fills an area, helping little learners explore at their own pace. START SMALL, GROW INTO BIGGER PICTURES • Easy: one friendly animal and its beginning letter. • Medium: an animal, extra objects, and its name. • Hard: a full scene with more to discover and color. • Progressive play moves through the levels as children finish pictures. Parents can also choose a level. MADE FOR LITTLE HANDS Coloring hints outline the areas that match the selected tool. Finished colors disappear from the palette, making the remaining choices easier to find. Match numbers, letters, or a mix of both, with natural colors or playful colorful combinations.
