Not overly impressed – What Time is it Mr. Wolf? - by Teacher's Pet Review

I expected an app that would teach my child how to 'read' a traditional clock which I think is so important in this digital age. When I tested the app I was initially impressed with the customization options available. In addition to these personal touches it would be nice to see a beginner, intermediate, and advanced selection that contained presets which set the average child on a proven path for increases in difficulty based on studies and testing. This would be helpful for someone like me who appreciates the research and information educators have gained that can optimize my children's and my time, effort, and potential headaches. Additionally, I believe that an app marketed to teach children (as young as three) how to tell time should have some method of explaining the basic principles of timekeeping and elements on a clock face (hour hand, minute hand, 60 minutes per hour, 5 minute intervals per numerical marker, etc.). It seems to me this app is more appropriately suited as a practice game for children who already have a good understanding of how to tell time. Not to seem overly critical, but I am also off put by the wolf's voice. Every response begins with grunts and even the words "well done" are deep in tone and in my opinion not celebratory. He could also use a few more responses... you can only hear "try again" or "well done" (spoken arguably grimly) so many times before you're ready to nix that wolf.
