Not impressed

I play all of the apps I get for my boys before hand to see if they're up to snuff. There isn't anything wrong with the app, it's just incredibly simple, and there aren't that many options for the free version to keep my boys from getting board with it. I had no intention of buying an app in the first place, so after maybe 30 minutes of having it, I don't think we'll keep it.
Great Game!

My two year old loves this game! It's just challenging enough that he makes mistakes every now and then, but whenever he completes a picture he happily screams "I did it!" with a look of accomplishment on his face. I thought it might be a little too simple when I first looked at it, but every time he gets a hold of the iPad, Button Board is the first thing he opens up. He loves it and it holds his attention longer than most things. The extra pictures are a little more challenging because they require more colors to correctly compleate the picture. They are well worth the few dollars to purchase.
My daughter likes this app, but...

I am currently teaching my 21 month old her colors. This app is perfect for that. However, I wish the buttons would go away after she has placed all of that particular color buttons on the puzzle. For example, if there is only space for 4 yellow buttons, the yellow button shouldn't be an option at the bottom once she has used it 4 times. I know it seems silly but in her world ever thing should be yellow and she will keep picking that color for all the circles if it is available to her. I hope to see this change in future enhancements. I won't purchase the full version until then. Hopefully she will understand the concept better as she gets older.
