The Elephant's Child
Overall Score: 86/100
version reviewed: 1.2
reviewed:
Best for: Interactive books, Attention & concentration, Early literacy, Interaction, Language, Personal & social, Thinking & problem solving, Understanding of the world
What it is: an interactive book based on the Rudyard Kipling story (about how the elephant's trunk became long).
What you do with it: read the story yourself or listen to the narration. Touch the objects on pages for interaction. There is a simple sliding puzzle activity (12 pieces) on every page.
What we liked: the story, nice illustrations, simple operation, the puzzle activities.
What we didn't like: links to the other apps by the publisher easily accessible for the child. The interactive elements could better correspond with the story. The narrator's voice could be more lively. The app feels a bit slow. A bit expensive for what it offers.
