My Take

I liked this app. It does a good job at engaging young children. If you have the tools that go with it (sold seperately) there are other activities you can do. As far as a classroom I do think this apps use is short lived. Once a child has played it a couple of times they are done as there is nothing new/altered to keep using it. Still, it is a great app for basic counting from 1-5 for young children. Great visual, sounds, and screen movement to be entertaining, but still focused on teaching counting (1-5)

How I Use It

This would be a great little app for preK-K stations. It is designed for individual student use asn does not track progress so no login is required. There is a nice little setting gear that the young students could not access as it is protected by a multiplication problem (as long as parents/teachers can do that math!). The app is set up in an entertaining way and has great visual and sound effects to keep students motivated. It reminds me of the Sesame Street clips from years back.
