The Parents Section contains more detailed tips and suggestions on these same topics to help families who are in the process of relocating.

• Familiarizes children with important moving steps like packing, traveling over a distance, and getting used to a new room.
• Models different ways to say goodbye to people and places.
• Helps children explore their feelings about moving.
• Introduces strategies for making new friends.

We're moving soon so this was a great find. This app helped me gently explain the concept to my little girl. Another fine app from the folks at Sesame Street.


Great app!

Game doesn't work, freezes at the beginning part and you can't advance. Maybe this is why it was free?


No sound
Livi mommy

App was great until I did the iOS update and now there is no sound. I have deleted and downloaded app multiple and still no sound. My daughter used to love this app. Any suggestions?


No sound

Sound has stopped working. My toddlers keep asking me to fix it but can't find any way to make it work.


Sound stopped

My daughter loved this, then for no reason the sound stopped. Reloaded numerous times without success. She keeps asking to "fix it" in a very persistent way, wish I'd never have downloaded it to start. Deleting it off my phone.
