My 4 years old boy loves animals! So when I received an email pitch on this app, I immediately requested to review it as I could definitely see the potential in our learning aspects! Without further ado, here goes my feedback...

* 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 teaches us all about our feathered friends, the birds. The parts on their body, the different type of birds in the world, the sounds they make and so on.

* For example, at the picture below, I love that I can show my boy the body parts on a bird and I go on to explained to him why birds have beaks and not mouth like us humans.

* I find myself learning new things too such as the male Emperor penguin guarding over its eggs until they hatches! An eye opener!
