Creative, independent learning brought to the iPad.
Shape-O! ABC's is an activity for preschool age kids that encourages "learning by doing" by integrating puzzles, shapes, words, colors and sounds. It features over 100 inventive shape-puzzles and was developed in consultation with a PhD level education specialist.
★ Over 100 images
Geometric shapes are pieced together to form images including animals, plants, transportation, faces and foods.
★ Alphabet & spelling
Letters are used as puzzle pieces to form words, helping with letter recognition and spelling. Friendly voiceovers demonstrate pronunciation, and parents can adjust the difficulty to the unique abilities of their child.
★ 8 color palettes
The rainbow button allows kids to rotate through colors expressing a variety of moods and tonal ranges inspired by natural and imaginary worlds. The simple screen designs incorporate warm textures of wood and craft papers.
★ Real instrumental sounds
A local composer created the melodious sound effects and background music. Kids will identify the real-world instruments, and parents will appreciate the simplicity of the tones.
★ Positive feedback
When a shape puzzle is completed successfully, children are rewarded with a triumphant "congratulations" sound, word and graphic. The aural and visual encouragement rewards the value of their effort and inspires continued play.
★ Thoughtful design
Shape-O! ABC's strikes a balance between entertaining and challenging kids. The large, colorful buttons are designed for small fingers, and the simple icons are easily remembered for independent play.
★ We're kids at heart
At Bellamon everything we do is designed for and tested by small people with big imaginations. We are inspired by the uniqueness and ingenuity of kids, and believe they deserve products that apply the highest quality of interaction design. This is why we use all custom graphics and sounds, and why we consult with a PhD level education specialist when developing new apps. Bellamon is a group of interactive experts (who also happen to be parents) dedicated to creating apps full of heart and imagination for kids everywhere.

Excellent
I have been trying to think of a suggestion for this app and can't think of a single one, (OK, why is there even a hint button? But you can turn it off) Players go straight to playing and it is highly customizable. My 2 YO loves it and can play for 30 minutes it is by far the Best single app for her!
Fun fun fun
This is a great program for both my 3 year old and my 5 year old! Worth every penny.
Two small suggestions for the developers:
1. When a puzzle is finished and the letters are spoken out loud, it would be great if each letter would jump or wiggle or move a little bit to visually link each letter to the spoken sounds.
2. The free version of this app for the iPhone had the very cute feature of the shapes and letters just "dropping" in one at time on top of the puzzle instead of in the area off to the left. Perhaps there could be a setting to switch between the two, as the kids liked the old way! Or, if you turn the iPad sideways (portrait), it would automatically switch.
Good book
