Finding Nemo is about a fish that gets lost in a fish tank with other fish and his dad tries to find him. This app gives you two choices. You can listen to the story being read or you can read it yourself and record yourself reading it. It offers the opportunity for active viewing by doing things such a finding things for your fish tank and working puzzles. It is a bit difficult to do the recording feature, because between every page you have to go back to the recording set up. I liked the record function best because you record your voice and listen to it. It is best suited for ages 2-6, because the story appeals to the younger kids and the puzzles are perfect for this age as well. They are extremely easy. Those preschoolers will enjoy both the puzzles and the story.
A simplified story about a popular character. Young children will enjoy having the story read to them, either by an adult or by the voice on the app. Parents can also record their own voice, so when their kids listen they will hear the familiarity of mom or dad. Early readers can read along or record their voices as well. The puzzles are extremely simple to do. All of the features are easy to use, but it took an 8-year old to figure out how to make the recording feature work right. Instead of hitting "record" and recording the story, you have to return to the main menu after each page and ask it again to record. Older kids will get bored quickly, as the story is short and there isn't a lot to do with it, but it is just right in it's ease of use (other than the record feature) and simplicity for toddlers. A great line up addition to keep the little ones engaged on long car trips.
