Toddler Alphabet Game at Mac App Store analyse

This and the other quiz apps are really cool so easy to use, kids just love them and learn the alphabet at the same time. Great sounds also!

Super simple, engaging, and interactive. Very young children have no problem figuring out what to do and they will stick with it. I love reading books with my kids on my lap and having them point out letters and shapes on the page -- this app is great for lap-reading, too, but also fun to watch them play on their own.

This app is a great way to teach kids the alphabet. Whether they get the answers right or wrong, they are still learning the letters, and it keeps them engaged longer than other alphabet apps Ive seen

great way for kids to learn the alphabet while playing a game

simple app to teach the alphabet as a game, rewards your children with stickers after every few times they get the right answer. Very encouraging mommys voice over

GREAT!!! If your child hasnt learned his or her alphabets then this app is sure to help. Its simple, but to the point. There isnt any crazy graphics thatll distract from the learning process. Instead, it awards the child at the end of each session with a sticker that they can choose and a sticker page to put their stickers on. How it works: Random letters are displayed. A voice will ask for you to touch a specific letter. If the correct letter is touched, itll proceed to the next set of letters. If the wrong letter is touched, that letter will disappear so it is not selected again. The other letters will remain and it will not proceed until the correct letter is chosen. After a few rounds of this a page full of random pictures (or stickers) is displayed. Your child can choose one to put on their sticker page. The great thing about this is each time a letter is touched, the voice will say what that letter is even if it isnt the correct letter. I had an app similar to this one where it would make a buzz sound instead of the voice saying what the incorrect letter was. At least with this app the child is learning even when they choose the wrong letter. THIS IS A MUST HAVE.

My son who is almost 2 enjoys this app. The audio is clear and font size and contrast is good. There is no distracting music in the background which is also nice. I would give it 5 stars if developers tweaked just a few features. When a new letter is requested the child should have to hear the name of that letter prior to being able to pick from the choices. This would ensure that they know what they are trying to find, rather than interrupting the audio and poking at the screen until they happen to get it correct. As a teacher I would like a data feature added. I would like to be able to check how many letters were selected prior to the correct answer. A total percent correct would also be nice. When mastery is near 90% it would be nice if lower case letters were also available and different font styles as well. This would insure that the child can recognize that letter when slightly different styles are used. When the reward sticker is selected and then placed on the page the sound it plays should last longer as it is currently presented the play time is very short. Maybe they child could touch the reward screen a predetermined number of times to hear sticker sounds repeated. For example after hearing three sticker sounds or when they dont touch the screen at all after three seconds the game returns to letters, I have not purchased the other iTot apps yet. I am hoping to see a few simple improvements first. If they are made I will recommend this app to other teachers who work with young children or those with special needs.
