Tiggly Submarine: Preschool ABC Game Reviews

officially AWESOME!

BonnySoftClop

Very interesting and beautiful app ! I was looking for an app which had something to do with the ocean since my sister's kid is obsessed with anything fishy! I've downloaded a lot of ocean games before for him but his mom says he quickly grows tired of them and they don't seem to teach him much. This app actually teaches the child about vowels which is a really important part of reading development and something I haven't seen any app ever tackle. He's only been playing this app a few days and he already is sounding out the vowels-it’s amazing. I don’t believe I even knew what a vowel was at his age.This app is officially AWESOME!

Awesome New Title to the Tiggly Family!

My grandson and I have reviewed and played the new word application and I can say it has been an unqualified success. He loved it from start to finish and it has already become a new favorite. I loved the way site words were used and he loved the games. Note: My grandson is autistic and any thing that helps him communicate better is greatly appreciated. We have already seen an improvement in his understanding and use of the concepts introduced with the new application. Please continue to add more words and levels to the games. We appreciate it when he has to earn the next level after mastering a level like in the math game. The simple colors and graphics ensure that the application is not overwhelming and assist with learning the concepts rather than getting to caught up in the game. Overall, a great new application, keep up the great work, we are fans for life!

Best app

This is a great app for kids to learn alphabets. My kids are not only learning new words but are coming up with so many fun words by themselves!

Amazing

My niece and I love this app. Our favorite is the underwater elevator. Such great animations and characters!

Fantastic app!!

My son loves everything ocean related, and he is also at the age where he is learning his words phonetically, so this app seemed the perfect fit. Happy to report he has been asking to play it non-stop since I've downloaded it. The art and animation is really unique for a kids game. It's really silly, and has my son engaged throughout gameplay. The sounds are really playful and fun as well! I couldn't ask for more out of an app. My son is laughing and enjoying himself, and he is learning new words and reinforcing his phonetics as well! 5 stars!

Great new app for kids

My kids love interacting with the characters in the tiggly games and this new app is great as it teaches new vocabulary along with the vowel sounds.

Great short vowel practice

Love this app. It's great practice for short vowels. I like how it gradually got harder as well. It first introduced the kids to the sound. Next it showed a word with the vowel highlighted and you had to choose the same vowel. Next it showed the word with the vowel missing and just said the sound. You the. Had to pick the correct vowel. Great for kids as they gain confidence. My daughter loved driving the sub around and thought as very exciting. I also love how the app uses some words as examples that aren't so common- growing her vocabulary as well! As an educator I think this has great potential for engaging many types of learners and in combination with the actual tiggly letters will really reinforce the concepts. I would love to see in the parent section a little guide available to the parents explaining all the features of the app. Overall a great app and I can't wait to see the other ones that go with the letters.

Fun, colorful, and very interactive

Can't wait for Tiggly Words!!!

Love the new Submarine app added to the Tiggly family of apps. As a mother of two (infant and toddler), I love the fact that I can allow my child to play with my iPad without constant supervision and the knowledge that she’s engaged and learning. As a teacher, I loved using the Tiggly apps at first as a reward system and have recently started using the apps for my struggling tactile learners in small groups. The new Submarine app is so much fun that my daughter and I both didn’t realize she was learning her vowels and sight words. The characters are cute as always and the ocean setting is vivid and opens up the child’s aquatic imagination (I can’t wait until the Tiggly Words come out, the Tiggly manipulatives add a wonderful “hands-on” component that teachers always look for). The learning aspect of the app is also quite good, there is a bit of drilling and repetition that the kids don’t realize because it’s skillfully covered in play. I do believe that it will give my child a heads up in phonic awareness for preschool and give my students a solid phonic foundation and repetition they need through fun.

Tiggly is Terrific!

I was excited to learn that Tiggly had developed another wonderful, educational app. When I told my five-year-old daughter, she couldn't wait to download it, because she thoroughly enjoys playing the other Tiggly apps (Tiggly Chef is her favorite!) this newest app doesn't disappoint! It is a wonderful introduction to vowel sounds and letter recognition, as well as an engaging and fun interface for children to be under-the-sea "vowel explorers". As a teacher and parent I appreciate the scaffolding the activities provided to the child - the first encounter with the word allows for detailed sight and sound connections to the word, the when it is revisited, the difficulty is increased and only the sight recognition remains. (One small suggestion with that though, some word pictures are easily confused as being a different word than intended, for example both "dog" and "pup" are picture clues for different vowel sounds, and my daughter had a hard time distinguishing the difference. Maybe a word that has a picture that isn't confusing with another word.) overall a wonderful and fun experience!
