What it is: A simple spelling practice app based on the Richard Scarry's book 'Cars and Trucks and Things That Go'. 45 vehicles, 5 levels of difficulty.
What you do with it: spell names of the vehicles by dragging letters into place. 5 levels/modes: Match letters, Learn left-to-right order, Spell with letter sounds (Phonics), Spell without visual hints (Phonics), Spell sight words and big words.
What we liked: the concept. Original illustrations. Ease of use. Fun factor. Great for Richard Scarry/Busytown fans..
What we didn't like: very basic (not much interaction apart from dragging letters, no rewards/motivation system). Only linear navigation (e.g. no vehicle index, you can't select a particular word/vehicle).
