Peanut likes to think of herself as an ipad expert. She knows how to turn it on, unlock it, and access her programs. Needless to say, technology is a huge part of our life. And I’m always on the hunt for new and innovative apps to challenge her learning.
Recently, Ruckus Media Group sent me a copy of their newest app for pre-schoolers: Spot the Dot. Spot the Dot is an app created by New York Times best-selling children’s book author David A Carter. This engaging game invites toddlers to find different colored dots in a variety of landscapes. It’s basically a scavenger hunt through different interactive playspaces.

Peanut absolutely loved this app. Although it took her a few minutes to completely get the hang of it, once she did, she was hooked. Through tapping the screen she was able to navigate a wealth of incredible graphics (simple yet utterly engaging); locating the colored dot in each. In one screen she used her finger to “turn over” red buttons looking for a pink dot; in another, she pieced together bits of a purple dot (like pieces of a pie) to make a complete circle. For each successful find, she’d raise her hands and yell “yeah!” (with glee).
Win it: Here’s your chance to win your very own copy of Spot the Dot!
