App Review: Juana la Iguana


This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Juana, la iguana. All thoughts and ideas expressed above are strictly my own.

Are you the parent of a preschooler? If so, (and if you have followed me for any amount of time) you know that I believe that preschool is critical to a child's future success. Even if you don't enroll your child in a good-quality preschool and are working with him or her at home, you still need tools to help you teach those important concepts that all children need to master before they start their formal education. Today, I have a new one for you.




NameJuana, la iguana
Subject(s): Preschool concepts
Brief Description: An interactive app for preschoolers that teaches children basic skills such as counting, colors, and vocabulary development.
Price: $2.99
Language: Spanish
Ages: 3 - 5 years
DeviceiOS

Juana la iguana is a vibrant app that is engaging for preschoolers who will find five activities that help them learn to identify colors and count up to 10. The illustrations are fun and colorful, making the app enjoyable.

Your child will learn the names of animals and fruits, while completing simple games that reinforce the vocabulary, such as matching...



Or develop hand-eye coordination by having kids drag and drop...


Or help them learn to count by touching and counting aloud...


The app is completely in Spanish, thus immersing the child in the language. However, I think that what I love most about this app is that the reward each child receives for completing the activities is an opportunity to stand up and dance to a fun, energetic song.

The only thing I don't like is that it appears to only be available for iOS and I know that the majority of MommyMaestra readers use android phones and tablets.

And if you enjoy this app, the developer has a second Juana app available with a beach theme. You can find it here.

Disclosure: I received this app for review purposes. All thoughts and ideas expressed above are strictly my own.
