Designed by parents, the Little Ears app teaches and quizzes your kid about sounds of actions and objects surrounding us. With over 60 beautiful hand-crafted illustrations, designed by a professional childrens illustrator, our app will entertain and delight all little angels playing with it.

Unlike many apps for kids, Little Ears requires no pre-existing skills for using the iphone or ipad. Just start up the app and watch your little one quickly discover, tune-in and interact with barking dogs, clapping flip-flops or clinking dishes.

Audio and visual stimuli working in tandem develop better sound recognition, while keeping your kid entertained. Repeating names of actions and objects upon tapping, facilitates speech and language development.

For kids age: 1 - 4 yo (most fun @ ~ 2.5 yo)

Whats our app like?

● Simple. Simplicity was our main goal while designing the app. The Little Ears app offers no distractions, no unnecessary buttons and functions. Its a simple, yet brilliant application. Kids want to play with it as soon as they see the beautiful interface and illustrations.
● Easy to use. Little Ears features big buttons & touch areas so little fingers have no problems tapping on them. Sharp & contrast colours, clean sounds and audio prompts allow for using the app outside or in the not-ideal lighting conditions.
● Safe. Weve taken your toddlers safety seriously. Little Ears does not feature TV-bright backgrounds. Soft, subtle and ambient backgrounds, controlled illumination & gentle sound levels are suitable for your little ones ears.
● Tested. Weve tested Little Ears on our own kids & friends toddlers. The user interface was fine-tuned many times, as we watched the kids interact with the app and give us feedback about what works and what doesnt.
● Validated by experts. Little Ears has been praised by child psychologists and pre-school teachers, as important aid in child education.
● Multi-stimuli. Application contains: audio (voice prompts, intro jingle, sounds), visual (illustrations and animations) and sensory output (vibration), working in sync on multiple senses and developing your kids sound recognition abilities.
● Rewarding & motivational. Each time your little one correctly guesses the image corresponding to the played sound, soft female voice rewards it with a motivational praise.
● Fun to play. Just start up the app, watch them giggle and disappear with your ipad under the table for precious minutes.
● Crafted with love. Watching our own kids play with other great iphone / ipad apps, weve felt obliged to contribute to the community, by designing our own toddler application.
