Talk about the weirdest luck I have that I get to review this app! I was posting some articles as usual on my Facebook page (find and like me there will you because I'm pretty active there!) and I saw someone by the nickname of MobileIgromatic commented back and out of curiosity (Ok, fine, I do often check out the people who commented on my posts, especially if they have weird names or interesting profile pictures!), anyway I checked out the profile and realised that they developed these few apps and I was immediately attracted to this app. So I sent a private message to them and the rest is history and yes, you are reading my review as below...

What's good?
* There are 5 games in this app: Shape, Silhoutte, Size, Puzzle and Color. I think that is awesome as we are not just limited to only 1 playing (and learning!) route.
* It is engaging and interactive and I love the beautiful illustrations and the colors are vivid and very eye catching!
* I can see my 3 years old boy playing the app with ease maybe because he has some practise from our daily activities for our unofficial learning methods lately.
* I use the opportunity in some of the games to teach my boy further, for example in the 'Size' game, I reinforced my teachings on the small, smaller, smallest or big, bigger, biggest concept.
* I am very excited to see the potential of learning with this app while still having fun!
Room for Improvement?
* Other than I think this app should be under the 'Education' category, nothing I can think of!
