Animal vs Interactive Life Cycles

Animal Alphabet Book has been specifically designed to help learn the alphabet. Learning the alphabet is not difficult as long as it is fun. It is important to learn the name, shape, and sound of each letter. The app displays each letter of the alphabet and associate that letter with an animal. There will be animation to making learning fun and entertaining. In addition to the alphabet, there will be a sentence made using the letter to describe what the animation is about. To make learning even more interesting, there will be fun facts on more animals beginning with the letter selected with audio included. There are also five buttons at the top of the screen. When the first button is pressed, you will be taken to another screen which will display animals beginning with the letter. When you touch the photo, the fun fact(s) will be read out. There is also an additional button which will take you to another screen where you can learn about more animals beginning with that letter. When the second button its pressed, you will be taken to a screen that teaches how to write the letter. When the third button is pressed, you will hear the letter, phonic and the word. When the fourth button is pressed, you will hear the sentence being read. The fifth button allows to to start/stop the animation. Two additional functions have been added to show how the characters are written. The first function will show the strokes to write the letter and the second function will show how to do cursive writing. Another option is Dogs A-Z that shows the name of a dog starting with that letter and a description of that dog. Audio is included. A colouring option is included to make learning even more interesting. You can select an animal to colour, learn to write the letters of the alphabet or practise cursive writing. You can also add animal stickers.
