Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming

The second in the Nickelodeon Literacy Suite, Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming Words focuses on your child’s emerging literacy skills. By matching rhyming words and more with Dora and Boots in this educational application, your child will become aware of individual sounds (phonemes) in words and how they are sequenced and changed to make new words. The ability to hear, discriminate and manipulate phonemes is highly associated with reading readiness in early childhood and considered a critical skill for the development of reading skills.

In this game, Dora and Boots want to go over the Troll Bridge, but the Grumpy Old Troll challenges them with a riddle: “To get past the bridge of the Grumpy Old Troll, find the tokens to pay my toll.” The player must listen and match rhyming pairs to collect tokens, and then, use a slingshot to get those tokens in the Troll’s moving basket. Only then will they be able to go over the Troll Bridge.

And the adventure continues! After finding the rhyming pairs, your child will progress to hearing initial word sounds, ending word sounds, and inside sounds. As your child selects a matching token, the word pairs are reinforced. Supportive directions and sound effects help guide your child in learning all about word sounds.

The educational activity of hearing matching word sounds and the challenge of getting tokens in a moving basket come together to keep kids entertained while building important early reading skills.

My daughter is 2 and she loves Dora and now I can't even play on my iPhone bc she can't stop playing Dora!! She can even do most of the levels all by her self... It was perfect!!


She loves it!

My 2.5 year old, a certified Dora fanatic, now understands rhyming and is starting to grasp starting sounds from playing this game for about two hours across 3 days! Amazing! I can't think of anything to not like about this game.


Like the app
Melanieteach1

This is a decent app, but some of the rhymes are higher level. Add sound to letter recognition and it would be AWESOME!


Kids love it

My girls are using this game to learn rhyming and to reinforce phonemic awareness. A great tool for Pre-readers and early readers.


Great
Captain Ozone

Great for new readers.


I love it
Drew Carey friend

Cute game thank you I tunes


Some Suggestions
ProudMom08

Since this is a paid app I'd prefer my 3 year old not seeing other apps to click on to buy at the beginning. This only takes up screen space when all she should be concerned with is the arrow that gets her to play the game-the one I purchased. There should also be a "left off where I just was" option.


Where's the adventure?
B's Meema

This is the most money I've spent on an app for my toddler, and I'm not sure it was worth it. I guess he is learning to rhyme, but he is disappointed every time he gathers the tokens to cross the bridge and they don't cross. Seems they could have designed some adventure in with it to keep it interesting.


Rhyme Time

Shelby, my 4yr old, can navigate this game with no help from Daddy. She enjoys finding the rhymes and learning her letter sounds! Thanks!


Cute but not enough levels
Gramma BKS

Grandaughter is 4 and she has this game mastered in just a few time. Needs more levels and less repeating of story.
