iPad App Review - Hunches in Bunches

~ Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 8:10 AM ~

We have a couple of Dr. Seuss apps on my iPad and the latest one that we reviewed is the "Oh, the Pets You Can Get!" app. So when I received an email pitch on this app, I immediately requested to review it. Without further ado, here goes my feedback...

Description from the product page:

"After much arguing and "barg-uing" and shoving and yelling, a decision is made and our hero follows a Munch Hunch to lunch. The nonsense and cleverly crafted message in Hunches in Bunches is right up to par with Dr. Seuss's many other classic picture books. It's easy to become overwhelmed by advice when you have a mind--but can't make it up. Sometimes the best plan is to trust your own hunches, and disregard the vocal bunch of Hunches clamoring for attention. This makes a great gift for well-meaning flakes and ditherers of all ages."

* It is engaging and interactive and I love that we can also touch the objects in each page on the screen and the words pop out to tell you what it is!

* I like the storyline where it tells how we can sometimes be too overwhelmed with making a decision and to best trust our own instincts (hunch) instead.

* There is a particular page which I feel is important to stress to my almost 4 years old boy - that the only person who can decide in the end is himself. Of course, being at a young age now it is better if us parents do the decision making but we try to give 2 options to our boy which he can choose for himself so he can ultimately still makes the decision and yet abiding to our requirements hehehehe...

* This is just my personal opinion, I'm somewhat not comfortable at the sight of the hunches with hands on their heads.... looks creepy to me :P
