Dinosaur Roar! Is one of our favourite books to read, so imagine our delight to be told an ap inspired by the best-selling picture book, has been created by Immediate Media Co!
Using Paul Stickland’s original designs and Henrietta Stickland’s wonderful rhyming text, the app is aimed at 2-4 year olds and incorporates different storytelling functions, creative colouring options, as well as a fun ‘shake and name’ device.
Littlies can watch, hear, colour in and touch their favourite dinosaurs as they stomp, shuffle, run, chomp, blink, squeak and roar their way across the screen.
The fab storytelling options let you listen to the story narrated by a child’s voice, or alternatively you can read the story yourself – with the option to record and save – while the innovative scrolling function takes you on a continuous journey through the dinosaurs’ world.
Oz loves dinosaurs and this game has had him interested and excited. His favourite part of the ap is the colouring!
You simply select your favourite dinosaur from the menu, then using your fingers to add colours and patterns, you can recreate the original, or be as creative and colourful as you like. A save function allows you to preserve your mini-masterpiece, plus each dinosaur can be coloured in again and again!
The Dinosaur Roar! iOS app is priced at £1.99 in the UK and available worldwide for download from iTunes and the lovely new anniversary edition of the much loved book by Random house is available soon!
