Mo Chéad Fhocail – Family Game Review
Mo Chéad Fhocail is a Family/Simulation/Education game from StoryToys Limited, first launched in 20th February 2015.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 23+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Mo Chéad Fhocail Stand Out
“Clear illustrations and multiple language options, combined with StoryToys’ famous ease of use and 3D popup pages, make this ""visual dictionary"" an outstanding addition to any early reader's iPad. …The pedagogy works — it helps you explore new words while reinforcing those you already know.”
- Children’s Technology Review (Editor’s Choice Award)
Folens and StoryToys are proud to present Mo Chéad Fhocail, an early learning app designed for young children. Mo Chéad Fhocail will delight and encourage children as they learn their first words in Irish using a combination of superb, colourful photographs, simple word labels and friendly narration. It's also a great way to teach children another language, with the option to add a second language that you'd like to see and hear from a choice of English, French, German, Spanish or Chinese.
Mo Chéad Fhocail is just like a real book. Each page is introduced with a playful rhyme, while bright and colorful images magically pop-up in each 3D scene. When children tap a picture, they see and hear the word for it, making this a powerful tool for learning new words as well as reinforcing those they already know.
The book covers key concepts such as numbers and colors as well as objects grouped into 14 different categories including animals, vehicles and things around the home. Interactive quizzes at the end of the book are a fun and satisfying way for children to solidify and reinforce their learning.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Darling learning app suitable for youngsters. Gives them a vocabulary of basic words in 6 different languages. Children get an early sense of different languages with colorful pop-up pictures. Words are clearly spoken and can be enabled to read to the child or let him read by himself. We give it an E for Excellent rating. Our young granddaughter learned many words while it seemed like she was playing a game.
