"A as in attention, kids"

Reviewed by: Peter Warrior / Jun 15, 2011

Your children will learn and be entertained playing with letters.

Kids ABC offers several activities where you have to identify, recognize and form the letters of the alphabet. A sweet voice accompanies the kid and touch response seems tuned to suit a children's skill.

This trial version ranges from A to H. You can upgrade to Z through an in-app purchase. There's a lock to prevent children to buy anything or accidentally delete any contact or otherwise important item.

We like that developers work on creating children-friendly apps. From a sensible point of view, this app is a really good job. In fact, it could also be a great app for foreign parents that want their children have a first contact with the English language.

This app belongs to Kid's series from Intellijoy, a company specialized in educational games. All their apps are plain fun for children. It's better played on a tablet. Anyway, a perfect app to let them play while you drive, for example.

Developer's original description available here
This free version is fully featured but stops at the letter H. To get the rest of the letters, please upgrade to the paid version.

Followed by Kids ABC Phonics Lite and Kids Reading (Preschool) FREE, Kids ABC Letters FREE is the first app in our Reading Curriculum Series.

Get ready to say "I couldn't get my phone back!"
Kids ABC Letters invites preschool-aged children to listen and learn the ABCs in ways that enchant them.

With Kids ABC Letters, your preschool-aged kids will learn the alphabet letter names and will practice letter shapes, letter recognition, and finding letters in context.

Kids ABC Letters does not teach your kids the phonetic sounds that the alphabet letters actually make. Knowing how the alphabet letters are pronounced is a separate educational goal, which is covered in a separate app, called Kids ABC Phonics. Including it in Kids ABC Letters would detract from the focus of this game and make it too complex to invite and delight children.

To sum it up, Kids ABC Letters is about the names of the letters, while Kids ABC Phonics is about the sounds of the letters.

The game has four wonderfully child-friendly sections.

✔ Naming Letters. A delightfully distraction-free way for kids to learn the name and the appearance of each ABC alphabet letter. Kids can tap on the letters to verify that they’ve learned the names correctly.

✔ Forming Letters. Kids get to practice remembering what the letters look like by sliding colorful puzzle pieces into place that make up the shapes of the letters.

✔ Recognizing Letters. Children get to play a fun game where they help the cat catch fish with alphabet letters on their sides as they swim by. By the time kids are done, they know the appearance and pronunciation of the letters by heart.

✔ Identifying Letters in Context. This simple educational game teaches kids to recognize alphabet letters as they appear in words. As a result, preschoolers learn that words are made up of letters.

Every section is designed so children enjoy success time after time and receive positive reinforcement from the likable lady teacher.

★ Hey, how did you take the top spots in the Education section?

✔ Our games are laser focused. For example, the letters game doesn't teach phonics, and the phonics game doesn't teach reading. We keep the games clean and focused but magically inviting and nourishing.

✔ Our games don’t feature fun at the expense of education – or education at the expense of fun. We also know games that are too complicated don’t involve and delight kids.

Recently changed in this version:

Fixed FC in the "Recognizing Letters" activity.

    The responses to right and wrong answers are too wordy. Instead of "alas that was a letter S, remember you're looking for a letter A." Should be, No that's a letter S, find the letter A. With young children, simple is best. My two year old needs to learn
