Young readers can interact with the words or the cute bugs using the iPad's touch screen. They literally play with the words to make SPIN spin and JUMP jump. Developed by award winning children’s designer Mark Schlichting, creator of the best selling Living Books series of interactive children's books, Noodle Words is the first in a series of animated Word Toys, Noodle Words encourages emerging readers ages 4-7 to discover word meanings like they never have before. ◆ Featured in USA Today ◆ Featured in Apple's New and Noteworthy in Education ◆ New-York Times Best Apps for Children - End of Year Edition ◆ Winner of the Parents' Choice Gold Award ◆ Winner of the 2012 KAPi Award for Best Educational Product ◆ Children's Technology Review Editor's Choice Award, with 4.7/5 "This is a masterful example of how an app can make learning fun." - Jinny Gudmundsen, USA Today "A charming educational app for iPad that is sure to put a smile on the face of users no matter the age, as well as teach the meaning of action words in ways most delightful" - GiggleApps.com This app has been a great hit with every child who has tried it.
