"An application that uses early childhood development theory — great!" -- Daniel Donahoo, GeekDad (Wired)
I See Ewe is an educational game for that helps your preschooler learn to recognize over 50 different shapes, objects, colors and animals, and exposes them to their first sight words. I See Ewe accomplishes this through two simple yet fun and engaging games.
The first game, "Learn Shapes", presents a child with a number of cards, each containing a different item. The game then verbally asks the child to find a specific item amongst the displayed cards while displaying the written form of the specific item's name. The child is successful when they tap on the card with the correct item.
The second game, "Match Shapes", is a memory match game that challenges the child to turn over cards two at a time to find a pair of matching cards.
You are able to adjust the level of difficulty for each game and activate verbal prompts that help your preschool child learn.
I See Ewe has English, German, Spanish and Chinese (Mandarin) languages localizations built in. You can select which language version you want to use in the game options view.
Be sure to visit the I See Ewe website for a detailed description of how to use the app with your preschool child.

Wonderful
This is a very cool app for my little girl that just turned 4. The only thing I would change is in the matching game, no matter if you have tried a tile before or not, you get the "WRONG" type of male voice with a buzz (I know I can turn the buzz off). It shouldn't be so harsh if you haven't tried the tile before. Also, try and make the "WRONG" voice a little more friendly. I'm afraid my little Sophia will be scared when she hears it. She isn't used to such negative feedback! Those are the only two minor things I could see that could be improved. LOVE the difficulty levels.
I do like the other suggestions about adding numbers. lower/upper case letters would be good too, and more objects :)
4 years may be too 'old'
My (just turned) four year old had fun, but quickly tired of this app. Mostly age appropriate for 2-3 year olds. Also, the choices (to pick an animal for example) become repetitive pretty quickly -- not quite enough variety. Otherwise it is great to see educational apps like this.
Great app!
My 3 year old son was bored and misbehaving at a restaurant. I handed him the game and he was good untill his food came! And learning at the same time, what else could you ask for?
