Each of these titles brings their own entertaining and educational experience:

  • Alphabet Animals: Suse MacDonald, winner of Caldecott Honor, and Auryn recently released Alphabet Animals. In this app, animals - from an alligator to a zebra - take the shapes of all the letters in the alphabet. Each animal represents a different letter - but what could it be? To find the answer, children can tap on the animal to hear its name, tap to pull the card and hear the alphabet. This app is simple enough for children to learn their ABCs and expand their vocabulary while giving the visual treat of Suse MacDonald's unique artwork.
