Word learning

Have you heard?  Someone we know and love has won an award and we couldn’t be prouder!  Parents’ Choice® Children’s Media and Toy Reviews has awarded Eddy the dog a silver medalfor his Eddy’s Number Party! kindergarten readiness appfor iPad!

In Eddy’s Number Party!, kids collect balloons, track party hats, toss presents, and gather friends to bring to Eddy’s big surprise party.  Along the way, they practice counting, number matching, and more, while the app continuously individualizes the level of challenge for each child.  Fun, in-app sticker play helps extend the learning.

Parents’ Choice found Eddy’s Number Party! to be “appealing and user-friendly” and noted the progressive challenge as a plus.  And it’s not just Parents’ Choice that loves the app; Common Sense Media loves it, too(“a hidden gem”).

Join us in sending Eddy big congratulations!
