Kid’s Academy, one of the most successful developers of apps for kids has released what might be their biggest app yet. 123 Tracing is an excellent educational app designed for younger students. This cute game helps kids trace numbers and get in the habit of writing and forming these letters that they will use the rest of their lives.
The NapTime Reviewer’s Thoughts
Our little one is loving this tracing app. We have it on the iPad and the iPhone so she can practice her numbers anywhere we go. The colors and sounds in this app are very engaging but not overstimulating, which is important for two-year olds. The in-app purchase ($3.99) is a must but I will warn you that the app only goes to number ten after the purchase is made. I would like to see some updates with more numbers included in the original in-app purchase. This is a must-have for toddlers to pre-k.
The free version of app is live and available to download via iTunes, Google Play and Amazon at:

Kid’s Academy is all about helping children learn verbal, writing and math skills in an easy and fun manner. Apps such as 123 Tracing and Bingo ABC have been top-50 educational apps in the App Store, and Kid’s Academy has also brought the well-known stories and nursery rhymes The Three Little Pigs and Five Little Monkeys to life with interactive apps. The simple interfaces of the apps allow children to take the reins and play on their own, but the sing-a-longs and other activities are perfect for parent or teacher engagement, as well. Research has shown that singing along with nursery rhymes has cognitive and physical benefits for children. Not only are children learning new words and the context in which to use them, but strengthening tongue and mouth muscles at an early age will help with pronunciation skills.
