Customer Reviews
I just paid $7 for a 5 min TV show?
After playing with the app, my kids thought it was "broken" because it doesn't actually do anything. It's just a cartoon that plays again and again, but sometimes the bird says something slightly different.
My kids see enough TV. Shaking a video is not interactivity. And changing some dialogue while playing the same video clip over and over is not "different every time."
Disney should have made this more like their other read along books-- at least they have some educational value and don't promise that you're making you're own story when you're not.
Overpriced
I have to agree with Love the Fall's post. Great app but way overpriced for what you get.
Great Madlibs game
The main part of this app is madlibs where you provide the words to a pigeon story. You have to speak up into the mic though.
Drawing the pigeon is also fun.
