One Giggly Gorilla | Book App
One Giggly Gorilla, another Best App For Kids, will capture young hearts on the first page. The animations are delightful! Kids will help the gorillas throughout the story, climbing from limb to limb. Each page has a new set of instructions to get them all to the top. Pull down a branch to send them sailing upwards. You have to listen to the order of the gorillas to send them up 🙂 Tap around to bring out the Toucan hiding in the trees!
As you will see in the videos below the graphics are stunning. You will find cheeky dialogue on every page that is sure to keep kids giggling right along. The “Read Again” tab is a very nice feature – once read, kids can tap to hear the page as often as they wish. This means they don’t have to start all over.
This is a quality app that covers many facets of education. The primary focus is on listening skills. The ability to follow directions is key to our kids’ success. In addition to counting, early reading skills, sequencing, and color recognition, are all reinforced.
This educational iPad app is ad free and kid-safe, a valuable addition for home or the classroom!
Listen Carefully to Help Them Soar!
Meet The Developer!
One of my previous apps, Ten Giggly Gorillas, had had a lot of educational downloads, particularly in the US. I thought I should make a follow-up, adding in even more educational elements. As with all Wasabi children’s book apps, the story itself drives the interaction and this places more emphasis on the words, which is a good thing. I also liked the fact that we could re-use many of the assets already built for the first book in the production of this follow-up, so the whole project made a lot of sense.
What is your favorite aspect of your app?
The action of bending the branches down, then letting go, in order to catapult each gorilla up to the next branch is unique and a lot of fun.
On a suggestion from Apple’s editorial team, I added a ‘Read Again’ button, enabling readers to replay the words without having to restart the entire page, so they can listen to the clues in the text over and over whilst figuring out the puzzles on each page.
Is there anything else you would like to share with our readers?
Within two days of launching, One Giggly Gorilla was the #1 book app for both iPhone and iPad on the Australian App Store and at the time of writing, it has just cracked the top10 iPad book apps in the US. To date, the reviews One Giggly Gorilla has received have all been excellent and it is on track to be the most popular Wasabi Productions book app to date.
