Peek-a-Word
© 2015 DADA Company
Madrid-based Dada Media has created “Peek-a-Word," an iPad app designed to to provide vocabulary practice about animals in 12 languages. Using a peek-a-boo play pattern, the app targets young readers, letting them play with animal-related vocabulary words in their choice of Spanish, English, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, Swedish, Korean, Dutch, Italian and Russian. You discover which animal’s name is being hidden, and touch the correct animal that corresponds. Touching the animals will indicate whether the choice is right or wrong in a funny way. While playing, the child will become familiar with the names and settings of each animal: farm, sea, jungle, Savannah and so on. Designed to provide initial contact with new languages, fostering family participation and parent-child relationships.
