My Games

What it is: a set of 8 activities teaching shapes, colors, letters, animals names, simple counting (numbers 1 to 9) and drawing.

What you do with it: there are 8 minigames: find the right color, find identical shapes, listen to the letter name and find the correct letter, count the animals and choose the correct number, play a memory game, swipe the animal flashcards to hear the animals name and the sound it makes, draw a picture using simple painting tools or play all the animals' sounds/letter names/number names (depending on a selected option).

What we liked: simple activities, nice graphics, configuration options (parents can set up time limit for a play or disable games from 8pm to 8am). The hints in the counting activity (you can touch the animals and have them counted aloud). It's a good app for a smaller children.

What we didn't like: no spoken instructions, wrong pronunciation of some words (e.g. giraffe!) and some mistakes in the written instructions (e.g. 'found' instead of 'find'). Some animals sounds a bit strange. No sound options (sometimes it's difficult to hear the letter's name). Not much educational value, the activities are very simple and repetitive.
