ABC on Wheels is a fun and entertaining way for your child to learn how to recognize and say their ABC’s (English letters and sounds). In this app, we combined every English letter with the correct corresponding motorized machine name for this chosen letter. You and your child will find that this app provides sets of activities to enjoy learning their ABC’s! These activities are – ABC Song, Flashcards and a Touch Letter game.
ABC song - Alphabet song is the most popular song among various nursery rhymes, it is used in pre-schools, kindergarten classes and homes worldwide to teach children the English alphabet. This song has been in practice for decades to teach little children the accurate order of letters in the alphabet with correct phonics and pronunciation. We added some animation to the song to improve it and now your child can witness and hear a letter being animated when it is sung. Making the song even more entertaining!
Flashcards - this is a set of 26 motorized machine name flashcards containing images made by our professional illustrators . It has the following features:
* You can spell the words along with letter animation synchronized with the voice.
* You can hear the machine’s sound when you tap on its picture.
* You can improve letter recognition along with the sound. There are both upper case and lower case images for every letter.
* Friendly and happy children’s music.
Touch Letter – this is a zone where your child can test his or her knowledge of the alphabet. This activity has 3 pages with 9 letters on each. Your child is prompted to tap on a letter. If it is a correct letter, 50 points are added along with the star animation! This is great way to see how your child can recognize English letters, and of course, they will learn as they go.
Education combined with FUN!!
Latest reviews of ABC on Wheels app for iPhone and iPad
My 2 yr son loves anything to do with transportation. I thought this would be a great app for him to learn the alphabet. I was wrong. The audio sounds of the female speaker are horrible! She sounds like a robot with a bad echo. So, the sounds of the letters and the objects pictured are awful. It is also confusing for a toddler to know that they need to touch a tiny "?" in order to hear what the object for each letter is. The only thing that sounds good, is the sound that the objects make and there are better apps for vehicle sounds out there.
Wish there were more features, but otherwise its nice and simple for toddlers to understand and use on there own. Good app
My 3 year old likes it, but I fell its very limited. It really bothers me that they pronounce Yacht as Yak!! Not useful for learning if it doesnt teach kids the correct way to say words!
