Windows 8 Kids App To Learn And Recognize Animals: I AM A…
I AM A… is a free interactive kids app for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 where your kids will be able to learn and recognize the names of animals. The app has a very interactive interface where it will show you cutely drawn animals on the left side of the screen, and towards the right side are the names listed out. All you have to do is to click and drag the name of the animal on the correct corresponding drawing, and if you have dragged the name on the correct animal, then you will be able to see a green tick pop on the animal to which you have dragged the name and the name will disappear from the list on the right side of the screen.
I AM A… is available for free from the Windows App Store.
Main features of I AM A… for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1:
The first step is to head over to the App Store and install the app. After that, when you can run the app you will see a interface like the below screenshot.
The above screen is the basic help section of the app which will be displayed to you every time you launch the app. You can proceed to the next screen easily by either clicking anywhere on the screen, or by pressing the Esc. button. Once in the main gameplay section of the app, you will be shown cutely drawn animals on the left side, and an unordered list of animal names on the right side of the screen.
All you have to do is to click and drag these names on the corresponding pictures of animals towards the left side. When you drag a name to the correct corresponding picture, a green tick appears on the animal’s caricature and you know that you have dragged the correct name on the correct corresponding picture. You can see the green ticks on pictures where I have dragged the correct names, and you can see that while I took the above screenshot, I was already in process of dragging the ‘Lion’ name on the correct corresponding picture of the cutely drawn lion.
The app offers a great way for kids to learn the different animal names by hit and trial method, and parents can also use this app as a guide to teach their kids the various animals in the ecosystem and their habitats, etc. Overall, the app is a great implementation of a good concept!
