My two year old loves this app! I agree with the latest review that the narration is educational. Only one of the levels has tracing shapes which is still difficult for her. She also loves the games you can play after the puzzle is finished. Lots of thought put into this app. For instance, being able to feed the dinosaur a piece of meat! Very cute app! We love the update that included a new puzzle. Keep em coming!

My son is obsessed with Curious George!!! This app is AWESOME!!! Shapes, tracing, colors, music, Ted's voice or similar to cartoon voice. And each update has added another "box" which is a set of activities. To the people stating no sound, I had that problem too, I did multiple things on my iphone/ipad. Try them; turn your device off completely and on again, then try it. Make sure the mute isn't on before you open the app and it's not open "in the background" Delete app and reinstall. Each device had one of these work. Hope you get it to work and let you kids enjoy! I love this app, well worth the cost!!!!!!

My 2-year-old niece loves this app. Well worth the 5 bucks. She loves the T Rex, but it would've been great if she could skip the build process because she has a hard time building it.

Well done, with a variety of activities -- and very good production values. Only one really annoying problem: the 'back to menu' button in the upper-left corner gets bumped by my toddler's finger ALL THE TIME simply by the way he holds the phone. He gets halfway thru a level and it suddenly kicks him out. Two recommendations: move the button, and/or display a confirmation before returning to the menu.

Same thing that's written here in other reviews. Great app with really nice gameplay, but no sound. :( That's really a critical feature in an app targeted at toddlers. They get bored so easily. :D Update the app!!

Our two year old adores this "george" app! There IS sound on our iPad 2 and iPhone 4's. This keeps him busy for a good amount of time and has taught him a good way to put shapes in their right places.

Nice & simple, but keeps him captivated (23mo), but the lack of multi touch makes it very difficult for him to hold the phone and move items at the same time. (If one finger is touching the screen, another finger cannot provide input and move the shapes). Kinda old-style, but it is Houghton Mifflin after all ?. Maybe he'll be able to do it more easily in a few months.
