My 2 and 4 year old love pressing the letters over and over and hearing the words. Good vocab for the little one and my older one is starting to know what letter words begin with.
My 3 year old loves to practice her letters and spinning the letter wheel. I love the fact that I can practice with her and don't feel like we are just watching a kids show on tv.
I have downloaded countless alphabet apps for my twin toddlers, and this one was not my fave. The free version has little to it, but what I did see did not convince me to get the paid version. Most annoying of all: the coloring page, you a only use the black crayon in the free version? Seriously? All the color options are there to click on, but you can only us black. That is annoying to me and the twins both.
Great sample! Don't agree with the previous reviewer. If he wants to use all the colors, spend the extra dollar. It's cheaper than a candy bar.
