Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Our grandson is 5 and we play against each other! Its so much fun and hes growing his vocabulary too! We talk about words he wasnt sure of and that leads to more learning.
We like it so much that we play it all the time.
Even though we like the idea of the game, the sound is not working properly. Cant get the sound going.
Went from 5 stars to 1 due to losing sound. Great app, but useless without sound.
Our kids ages 2 & 5 LOVE it!! Perfect to use during Homeschool.Thank you for a great app.
We really like that you are able to record the words along with the pictures! It's great for special needs & our little kids at home enjoy it too.
Our 2.5yr old loves this game. It's fun and rewarding.
We love this for our students and we love how customizable your apps are.
Such an awesome game. Simple and effective. Great way to spend down time, learning instead of television. P.s. Our son is two, so we adjusted it to the 2×2 mode. Love thatas he advances so can the game.
Our speech students will love working on vocabulary with this app.
Our entire class LOVES this program! K-4.
Good way for kids to practice scanning and improving speed.
This app has helped our daughter so much with her spelling. We can turn her loose on it and she actually studies.
Good to play alone and together. One fun educational game app.
Clear, colorful photos. Great challenge with learning embedded.
AWESOME GAME FOR ALL AGES. We LOVE IT.
Our daughter just started having Spelling tests and this is great! We can pre-record the words and she can do them any time…wether we have time to help and sit with her or not.
Wonderful tool to practice spelling words. Has greatly helped our daughter.
We LOVE playing this app with our nephew ..it's fun for us and it helps him learn.
Can't say enough about how great this app is! Our son is non-verbal and we are amazed at how many icons he selects accurately.
Great app lots of fun for papaw as well as the kids.
Love the customizability!!! Just have three requests: 1. Our zen mode doesn't seem to work. Can that be fixed? 2. Can there be an option to turn off the music while keeping the rest of the sounds? 3. If we could add our own pictures, this would be THE perfect app! Any chance of that happening.
Soon addictive have a hard time sharing with our kids.
This app is great! Love the customizable way to enter words! Just wondering about two possible options – lowercase availability in the unscramble part and for nouns if there could be a a option to enter pictures for support. But we think this is great.
With all the different adjustments you can make on this game, it is truly for all ages and abilities.
Fun learning game for our 3 & 4 yr old granddaughters.
We're working in ESL for kids and this app, along with a bunch of other Alligator apps, really works in the classroom environment. Thanks.
Nice app for grades 2 and up to work independently and see their productivity.
Easy to set up. Our 8 year old enjoys the using it.
Great receptive language vocabulary builder. Our students have been requesting this two player game all day.
Nice we like how our kids and play it together.
Love it it great two kids can play.
We have a number of alligator apps for our kids…. This is by far our favorite! Super easy to set up and easy for our five year old to navigate all on his own.
Easy to set up tests and we love the option to practice, test, retake missed words etc. We will definitely use this with our special education students.
Our grand daughter loves this app. Some pictures are challenging. It will add to her vocabulary.
We have been looking for something to help our daughter practice her weekly spelling words that could be fun and this is it.
We like that you can have multiple lists and that there are various ways to practice. The recording feature is great too. We would love to be able to e-mail a list to a student or parent. Can that be added? Either way we will certainly recommend it to our students. Thanks.
Just what elementary and secondary students need for spelling and vocabulary words! Use of student's or parent's voice recording fills need for auditory, visual and tactile input so necessary for memory.
Very nice app. Simple interface, setup.
We really like all the different types of praise for each correct answer.
Great app. We like the customizing features and having multiple lists. Keep up the good work.
We have an 8 yr old sp needs son and a 2 yr old. Both love this game. They play as single players, challenging when more pictures come in… But still fun.
Our ELL kids love it, so do our special ed kids, so do our regular education students. Good for vocab, listening, motor skills, or just plain challenging yourself.
A fun app that helps with language connections for preschoolers as well as English language learners. Being able to start with one category and 4 pictures and increasing difficulty as ability increases is terrific.
Great game for youngsters to identify their surroundings. However, perhaps you could add an element that permits slowing down the game. It goes so quickly there is barely enough time to identify the items named. Yolanda.
We have a 2 and 4 year old that both love this game. It's helped our 4 year old work on focusing which is a big help.
Our 4 year old and we play against each other, and it is really fun.
This is great in developing concentration.
Love this app fun to play with the kids or others always a rush. Only change we would make is that you can't win by just random picture touching quickly.
Awesome tool for our toddler's vocabulary. Fast paced and keeps his interest.
