My Town: Preschool
© 2016 My Town Games
This is one of a series of theme-based flannel board style experiences that lets you drag-and-drop items on the screen. While the overall design isn't as sophisticated as the Toca Life series, there is a playful collecting element to this app, that keeps you exploring. There are eight preschool themed locations that include Learning room, Bathroom, School nurse, Yard, Bathroom, Cafeteria, and a Nap Room. There are now more emotions added to all character and more characters. We liked the school nurse, where you can examine kids or give them glasses. There are plenty of Preschool-themed areas to explore, and it is possible to load or unload a bus. Each has about 20 items. As you explore, you can collect hearts to unlock more toys for the preschool. The collecting theme is also fun. Need to know: This app aggressively markets other "My Town" apps within the play environment, this despite being a paid app. At the very least, it should be possible for a parent to disable these icons. See also My Playhome and the Toca Life series.
