Explore and Learn Shapes

What it is: an app for learning colors (yellow, red, blue, green, purple, pink, orange, brown) and shape names (circle, square, triangle, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon, oval, heart, star, diamond).

What you do with it:

- identify different shapes

- solve simple jigsaw puzzles (about 4 pieces) with shapes

- match shapes

- identify smallest and largest shapes

- identify different colored shapes

- play a memory game (8 cards) with shapes

The app has a simple reward system (collect coins to buy stickers for a simple sticker scene).

What we liked: the concept, nice graphics, simple animations, funny main character, easy operation, spoken instructions, extensive customization options.

What we didn't like: can get repetitive after some time (not too much variety across the activities).
