Description
The first in the Nickelodeon Literacy Suite, Dora ABCs Vol 1: Letters & Letter Sounds focuses on your child’s emerging literacy skills. In this application, your child will learn the Alphabetic Principle: to recognize letters, write letters and associate letters with sounds. Once children are able to hear and discern sounds (phonemes), they are ready to associate those sounds with letters.
That means kids learn their ABC’s with Dora and Boots in this exciting educational game!
What’s that Dora and Boots see up in the sky? It’s Tico in his Nutty Plane, writing letters and drawing pictures. But he needs you to help him with his ABC’s! Pick up all the nuts he needs to power the plane by tracing the letters. After that, help Tico make a picture in the sky. What’s that picture that begins with the letter A? An Apple! It’s such an adventure to explore, learn and read with Dora.
As your child traces the letters, Dora reinforces the sound of each of the letters. Supportive directions and sound effects help guide your child in learning their letters.
With the educational activity of tracing letters, the interactive tilting action, and the picture guessing, Dora ABCs Vol 1: Letters & Letter Sounds will keep kids entertained, all while learning their ABC’s!
Ready for some high-flying letter learning? ¡Vámonos! Let’s go!

Fun and Educational
This was a very fun, entertaining, and educational app!! My kids enjoyed the interaction with Dora. Highly recommended for teaching kids Letters.
Great educational app!!
simple yet effective (and fun) app. My kids loved it.
The Tilting Acorns Need to Go ...
My 3 year old daughter loves Dora and is learning her letters, so this looked like a great app for her. The tracing letters and hearing the letter sounds piece is perfect ... unfortunately this is followed by tilting the ipad to get acorns into specific slots, which doesn't really teach anything and frustrated my daughter so much that she gave up by the second letter and now refuses to play with the app. I don't think there is any way to get around that part of the game (you trace a letter, then get forced into acorn tilt mode for that letter), so for us this app was a total waste of money :-(
