"Elegant in its simplicity."
-- Apple at Macworld

"ABC Animals provides a unique interactive teaching tool that makes learning letters fun."

"I love the fact the letters are sitting on 'lined paper' graphics and the clear directives on how to write letters had me imagining school classrooms full of children with iPhones..."

An Apple "Staff Favorite" since 2008, ABC Animals provides a wonderful set of interactive flashcards that aid in teaching young children to recognize, say and print English alphabet letters. Intuitively scroll between cards with the flick of a finger. Fun and engaging animal illustrations help to keep learning ABC's fun! Audio accompanies each card providing a letter name, associated animal name and the phonetics for each letter. The best selling full version of ABC Animals has over 90 original animal illustrations and picks up where ABC Animals Lite leaves off, presenting the full alphabet from A to Z.

INSTRUCTIONS
Scroll between flashcards. Double tap any card to flip it over and practice tracing both uppercase and lowercase letters right on the screen of your iPhone. Shake to erase. Press letter or animal images to repeat audio.

PREFERENCES
Preferences for ABC Animals Lite are available in the Settings application on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Preferences allow a parent to choose the handwriting method best suited for their child, enable or disable any or all sound effects and prevent cards from flipping over if practicing writing skills or phonics isn't age appropriate. For bilingual families and parents who want to teach their children ABC's in other languages, ABC Animals Lite can be set to use English (both US & UK), French, German or Spanish.

ABC Animals Developer Message
Critical Matter, Inc.

To address a few common questions. The animals are randomized when the application starts. There are over 80 different animals in the application currently and there are more on the way. To trace any letter, simply double tap on any card and it will flip over. The various preferences for ABC Animals can be found in the Settings application of your iPhone / iPod Touch. A sincere thank you to everyone who has taken their time to provide meaningful reviews. As the developer of ABC Animals I am completely committed to providing fun, entertaining and educational learning tools for your children. Look for many of your suggestions in forthcoming releases!


Needs improvement
Joon P.R.

It's ok but can use a major update. It needs more features like numbers objects ect. There are other apps that offer more for the same price minus the tracing part. It's ok but my 20 month old enjoys itots more... Looking forward to that update (I hope)


So much learning in such a simple app
AlessandroFernando

My sister loves this application, the only thing she wants is the ability to switch from one letter to the next in trace mode so she wouldn't have to double tap and then do it again. Also, making the space for tracing a bit bigger The developer has done a great job and is one of only a handful of developers who actually pays attention to and helps those who buy the app.

My 4 year old daughter loves it
ApeeDee

The animals change, keeping my daughter interested. Also one of the best "tracing" games avaliable. Nice size with your choice of arrows or dots! My daughter loves it. She is developing her fine motor skills with this app. Well worth the $2


ABC Review
DecFam

My 1 yr old loves this app! He likes to hear the names, look at the pictures and flip the page. I think it's a great learning tool.


Change Languages?

How do you switch languages from English to Spanish. Also no easy way to skip from one letter to another.

Every time I open this app it's crashes.


Very fun
Orange Deb

My 4 year old loves this app. I would like an alphabet category option besides animals. Though, the animal graphics are very cute and fun. Also, being able to get to the next letter while in trace mode would be nice. The shuffle option is nice.
