Win An EducaVroom Promo Code And Give A Zooming Start To Learning
November 6, 2012
AppAdvice has once again teamed up with Mathieu Brassard in order to offer you a chance to win one of 13 promo codes for EducaVroom ($1.99) for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch.
Let your children get an early start on learning, and have a fun time doing it. From lawnmowers and roller skates to supersonic jets and aircraft carriers, EducaVroom features 72 vehicles and related items to learn. Each entry contains a high-resolution photo, sound clip, and the object’s name. The app supports English, French, and Spanish, which works as a general convenience or a supplementary tool for teaching a new language.
The user interface is simple, yet has a lot of potential. Kids tap on photos to hear the rumbling of an airliner, the siren of an ambulance, the panting of the dogs of the dogsled, and more. Just as easy, kids tap on the name to hear a narrative pronunciation in the chosen language. Use a swipe or arrows to navigate through the photo library. Portrait mode is one-by-one, whereas landscape displays several different animals at once.
In addition, parents can modify many aspects of the experience to better accommodate a child and for personalization.
Flashcard customization allows a parent to add a personal touch or provide further encouragement by recording your child speaking the word. To edit cards, tap on the settings button in the top-left of the main menu, then Customize Cards, and continue from there. If at any point you’d prefer to return to the default recordings, there's an Erase button to remove your personalization.
Also within settings, parents can adjust slideshow and navigation parameters, auto-start preferences, and even create a quiz-like mode. By enabling the "Hide instrument name" option, kids will need to guess the name of the instrument. All it takes is a single tap on the bottom toolbar, where the name normally appears, to reveal it. Speaking of progress, Discover Musical Instruments now includes SmarTots integration.
Don’t be shy about downloading a copy of the no cost EducaVroom Free, containing the same simple, fun, and educational elements, plus 24 of the 72 vehicles from the full version.
