Absolutely love it!
May 20, 2018 This was one of the games gifted to us by a friend. My son absolutely loves playing it and I love that it’s helping him learn his letters and work on his fine motor skills. It’s also helping us keep him busy on the road for our summer travels! Highly recommend.more -
Grandkids love it!
May 16, 2018 All of my grandchildren have enjoyed this app! It is definitely the “ go-to” app for my three year old granddaughter! I love to hear her responding to the vocabulary used and enjoying all the activities! What a fun way to learn! Great app!more -
Such a great app for practicing the alphabet
May 14, 2018 My son struggles with leaving but this app is wonderful. He feels good while playing it and it helps him retain what he’s learning. Thank you!!! -
Great for learning the alphabet
May 15, 2018 Each letter has a verb action. This app is full of fun mini games. Highly recommend. -

Not optimized for the iPhone 11
Sep 2, 2020 My toddler still loves it but it’s not optimized for my iPhone 11. The graphics don’t always fit on the screen. It bothers me more than my kid, that’s for sure. Hopefully it will get an update soon. -
0 stars. I need a refund
Oct 29, 2020 0 stars. Spent $3 on this app and it’s not formatted to my iPhone 11 Pro. The content cuts off at the top or bottom of the screen. What gives? -
Great concept wrong context
Oct 29, 2013 While the idea of getting kids involved in learning, the vocab represented by each letter are mostly verbs. My 2 yo is slowly grasping his ABCs and learning phonics and he questions why the C card has balloons as he can't seem to picture that C is for "cut". He knows what cutting is. If there were scissors, he would understand better. Another example will be the F card. It asks to "fix the bicycle". We can't see fix and my 4yo (who is already familiar with alphabets and phonics) asked if the narrator meant to say "assemble". Similarly, my 2 yo can't understand why J has a train running on a track. While it is easy for an adult to comprehend, a young kid learning his ABCs may require extra explanation how the word fits into the context as he doesn't automatically see it. Perhaps revise the vocab or emphasize important details like joining the track vs details on the train chugging through. Have a scissors to cut balloon strings with, and fix one part of a bicycle like the flat tyre only. I really regretted my purchase.more -
Some bad sounds
May 13, 2011 I really like the educational value on Tally Tots numbers so was very excited to get this. I was disappointed because a number of the sounds are wrong, misleading. The Bb, Kk, Tt, sounds and more add the uh sound at the end of the sound. Instead of a distinct b sound they say buh. Same goes for other sounds, t-tuh, s-suh, etc. I would love to use this in my kindergarten class but will do so with caution and some re-teaching. That said, I did it with my granddaughter and would say the sound correctly as the app said it incorrectly so she only heard the correct sound. I would not let my students or my granddaughter do it independently.more

Great app
May 26, 2011 My 17 month old loves this app. Within a few days he was "building" the robot by himself. There are things that he could do right away "hammer" and things he can grow into. My one complaint is it takes so long to change a letter. You really have to hold in one spot for a long time, which means my son grabs my finger to change to a letter.more

Big step backward
Aug 17, 2011 My 2 year old loves AlphaTots and TallyTots, and so do we. But Spinlight has taken a big step backward by putting a button on the bottom of the home screen leading to its other offerings in the App Store. Before, everything that the child pressed was safe and educational. Now she's going to get caught up in the "buy this!" page. Please, Spinlight, don't screw up a great kids' apps with this unwanted button. Parents who love the apps are smart enough to find the other ones you make in the App Store without it. Please drop it in the next version--and put the next version out soon.more

What’s Groovy
This app has been a terrific addition to my speech and language program. As a speech language pathologist working with young children with Autism, I find it very helpful to teach the idea and concept of words having actions and power to make people do things. Use of verbs is very limited in students with autism and having an app that allows them to learn verbs in an alphabet format is fantastic. I have had several non verbal students learn to request action from me because the want to "build robot" or "add candles" your use of a question of Can you? Before they perform the action has help me build longer responses such as Yes, I can build the Robot. Followed by "You did it." Allows me to ask What did you do? This gives the student the opportunity to state the verb in past tense. I built the robot. When they want to do it again, they can work on I want to build a robot. I have recommended it to many of my students' parents. I would love to see an option under each letter to choose between two different things to perform the action on, such as build car versus build robot so that my students would be really motivated to request by using an action word. Thanks you, Ruth Jarvis

What’s Subpar
The contents do not even fit within the iPhone 11 screen although the app details show it as compatible with this version of phone. The app is also clunky in that it doesn’t guide the user on what to do after an activity is completed. Waste of our money and my preschooler is bummed.
