Word Wagon by Duck Duck Moose App Reviews

My 4 year old loves this...it is incredibly well designed and easy to use. I really like how u can also switch between capital and lower case letters. So far weve only used the first 2 levels, but we are not disappointed.

My 3 year old (almost 4) loves this app. It is colorful and interactive, and best of all it teaches him to spell! He could play with this for hours. Very well worth the $2 for it. I highly recommend for any preschooler.

My girls are 2.5 and they love this app. Learning letters and drag n drops. Cant say enough positive remarks about your design experience work. Nicely done. :)

Good for helping to spell words. My son loves collecting the stickers!

My 3 year old loves this app. It gives him multiple levels to work upto.

Really nice and educational

My four year old son loves to play Word Wagon. He has learned to spell many new words while having fun doing it.

This is another brilliantly designed app by duck duck moose. I loved Park Math and Fish School and this app is no different. Beautiful design (love the changing backgrounds), great music, creative twists that bring a smile to your kids and your face (keep poking the mouse!), and best of all, incredibly fun way to learn! Phenomenal app, highly recommended.

This is another great app by DDM. However, it is not an ipad app. Its an iPhone/iTouch app that will run in low resolution on the iPad.....

A must-have for all emerging spellers! Very motivating!

Duck Duck Moose puts out some very nice apps at a wholesale price....Word Wagon is no exception. Fish School and Itsy Bitsy Spider are home runs if you havent checked them out. Word Wagon is a unique drag n drop spelling app because it teaches phonics at the same time as spelling / letters. The app visually illustrates which letters of the word make up the phonic while emphasizing each sound. I cant express how useful this app could be for an autistic child. It is extremely difficult to help moderate to severe autistics make visual / auditory connections surrounding speech...largely because they avoid eye contact with everyone all the time. This app is no miracle cure, but I know for a fact that my son has learned the alphabet and numbers 1-20 through the itunes store. He has gained self confidence and an innate ability to navigate electronics (at least those designed by apple). Yes, this app is in iphone low resolution, but who cares? It is a useful tool for a child, not a movie. If you havent already, buy your autistic toddler a numberless 32gb iphone, a 64gb first gen ipad and this app from Duck Duck Moose. Its the cheapest, most effective private language school for autistics that youre ever going to find. Your child is worth it.

My son loves the word world app but there arent enough words. This is great. Tons of words and variety. Another great game by DDM.

My 3 year old loves this game. Keeps him entertained for over an hour !!

My 3 year old is having a blast learning to spell with this game. Weve loved all the other Duck Duck Moose apps and this one is no different.

We have all the Duck Duck Moose apps for our almost three year old daughter. She loves them all and this app is a great next step for her. She was already familiar with navigating these apps which makes her able to focus on learning. Her daycare provider/preschool even bought iPads and put this app on them to help the kids with reading!

My 3 year old daughter loves all of your apps! This one is the best yet! Keep them coming!!

We have all of the Duck Duck Moose apps, and they are all beautiful, colorful, and well-designed. This one is thin on content compared to Park Math or Fish School. We bought it for phonics training, but that aspect is very limited. There are no games that practice letter-sound correspondence, just the repetitive act of visually matching letter shapes with lettered blanks to spell a word. The act of dragging letters into lettered blanks is the only activity in the entire game, aside from the cute playful animations. The game needs to add an activity where, for example, the child hears "buh" and needs to choose a B. Until it offers activities that focus on letter-sound pairings, I think its unfair to say it teaches phonics. It simply incorporates some phonics on the side of its spelling game.

We love Duck Duck Moose! Were so happy to see a new one. This app has great characters, and is a great way to introduce kids to words and spelling. Kids put letters in order, and then the app shows them the sounds of the letters.

What a wonderful and visual way to show phonics and blends of letters! As a former teacher, I appreciate the good selection of words and properly taught phonics.

The audio on this app is terrible
