Latest reviews of Dino Tales – literacy skills from creative play app for iPhone and iPad

Keeps crashing
Just downloaded the game bundle and both the games are crashing... Any assistance is much appreciated.
Fantastic Reading and Dinosaur fun
The kids set their age the minute the start the game and have fun meeting new dinosaur friends on each new level. What I love particularly is the fact that you have the game- which is fun and entertaining but can touch the bottom right corner to ask random "dinosaur facts"--- its such a great way for kids to raise their confidence for reading as well as teaches them fun new facts to share . Best new reading app Ive seen in a long time !!
GREAT!
Amazing, although it crashes sometimes. Its great, it looks amazing, and the dinos are so cute!
Fun app for dinosaur lovers!
My daughter really enjoys this app and I love that she is practicing her reading. Sometimes the dinosaur gets stuck but we just restart the app when that happens. Its only been a few times.
Nice, but
Please do tell us how to crack the other Dinosaur eggs!? I tried and you always go in a circle. Help would be appreciated. I asked the same question also on Facebook, perhaps I will see the answer there. thanks.
