Toddler Counting App Reviews

Easier to harder

I started my daughter in the easy mode, but have not been able to escape or restart to switch to the "harder" mode. It appears the word "star" still does not have audio.

Simple app, great for teaching counting

Very basic app with good graphics and sound. Does exactly what it promises. My three and a half year old son is good at counting, but is pretty much non verbal. Since using this app, he has been trying to say his numbers, which is awesome.

Great!

This app does exactly what it sets out to do, and that is to assist toddlers in their learning of numbers. While the objects are completely random (count the soups?), the touch and count model works very, very well here. For $1, it is certainly worth a purchase.

Great, simple App!

I got this for my son when he was 2-1/2 yrs old. A few months later, hes obsessed with it! Apparently its highly addicting but in a good way - his counting abilities are terrific. Gotta love all the positive reinforcement too! I wish i had someone like that looking over my shoulder at work - "outstanding!!" Highly recommend.

Great app

We got this when my daughter was about 10 months old. She could use it then and she just turned three and still loves it! I would recommend to anyone with a very young child.

Fun!

Fun! My little girl picked up counting right away and has been asking for more.

Fun educational app for young toddlers

My daughter is 16 months and enjoys this app quite a bit. Its not her favorite anymore since she recently got some fancier apps with lots of bells and whistles, but any time I go back to it she is in a number trace for at least 10 minutes. She can already count to 12, skipping 3 and 4 since those she cant say so well. I think this well made app really helped her learn so quickly.

great pictures, fun counting & learning!

Counting things well is an important skill -- its been amazing to watch my child and her friends learn and get better at counting using this app. They are drawn naturally to touch the pictures, and when the pictures dim and numbers appear, they want to touch more -- the number symbols and the spoken words are great reinforcement. I like using this app way more than counting monkeys, flowers, ladybugs etc in printed board-books (although those are also fun)

Taught my 4 month old to count

It looks like a very basic app, and it is. But my 4 month old daughter (now almost 3 years) loved it. All it does is display a picture on the screen along with copies of the picture, and the child touches each one, in whatever order she wants. A number appears on each one touched counting higher and higher until all the pictures have been touched, and a voice calls out the number along with it. To toddlers, or at least my daughter, it was addicting, and when she started pre-preschool, she was the only kid who knew her numbers up to 20 (not sure if it goes beyond that, but for a 3-4 month old, I think thats pretty decent).

good idea, very rough around the edges

the interface is straightforward, and the pictures are clear and relatively okay quality. the voiceover is harsh and grating, and sounds as if it was recorded in someones bathroom; the voice editing is even worse, with awkward tonal leaps between words and phrases.

Great for young kids

There seems to be a few small bugs, such as rotating oddities and such, but my 16 month old daughter can use it without problems. It keeps her occupied, and teaches her how to use the touch pad as well as count. So a win win in my book. For 99 cents, its a great thing to distract and/or calm down a child. ;)

Simple and straightforward.

This is one of my 2 1/2 year old nieces favorite apps. Great for learning to count.

Great, kids love it, couple quirks

Simple enough, touch the item, hear and see the number, get praise. Odd things: sheep and stars are missing sounds, and what were they thinking including knives and candles as things to touch? (Some might mind sharks and snakes too, but the girls love them, so....) Overall its very worth it for entertaining toddlers, just a couple things devs should consider there.

Better reward

Basic app.. Good for my 17 month old. But check out the way a child is rewarded when he gets it right on apps like endless alphabet. That positive reinforcement works a little better on toddlers. Add clapping if correct would make it better.

Boring!

Good for counting practice but presented in a boring way compared to other apps. My grandson used it for about 30 seconds before he moved to something else.

Ok I guess!

Just brought the app for my 2 yr old and it doesnt provide audio - even deleted and reinstalled it but she loves it so I just say it out loud for her.

My kid loves it :) !!

My 2.5-year-old loved this app he immediately understood it and was instantly off and running counting chickens, dinosaurs, hamburgers, and bicycles. definitely the easiest iPhone app for toddlers
