Why do I now have to pay for more letters?
Sarahdrive
Honestly, my kid loved this game. When this game updated, I didn’t know that you had pay for more letters, until my kid came up to me asking, “Mommy, what happened?” Then it showed that I ha TO BUY more letters. I loved this game at first, but now I’m not a big fan.
Functionality is poor

This app is the most frustrating ever. There is no way to skip introductions and how tos and the create and share does not have letters or most of what is previewed. Super disappointed.
Cute Game for Kids!

My daughter loves Play-Doh so I downloaded the game for her. She loves creating different animals and it teaches her colors and ABCs nicely. Really happy with it!
This is an excellent learning tool for kids

This is a great app! Both my kids are having fun and learning at the same time. Even my youngest (4 y.o.) can follow the instructions. I'm glad you can have multiple users and track their progress! Definitely recommended.
Makes Learning Fun!

My toddler loves playing with Playdoh, but when he came down with a cold that left him too exhausted to get off the couch, I downloaded this app. It's so entertaining, and I love that this is feeding his interest in the ABCs. There's enough variety (multiple shades of his favorite color - blue! Different objects to make and squish!) that it can keep kids entertained for long stretches, and can work for young toddlers as well as those learning to read/write.
OMG What a Fun App

My kids are very hard to please but this app does the trick and more. Bright colors, fun songs, and all the letters of the alphabet. Playdoh, Playdoh, Playdoh we love you!!!
