More and more families are doing a little work and a little housework ...... while their children are showing their phones and tablets. We want them to be doing a little something on their own anyway ...... during busy times, but the apps must still be good for the child!
The popular "Marugoto konagon kotobukan de dekirukanai" application in many genres.
Gakken's Preschool Work series for toddlers has sold a total of 50 million copies in its 42 years of publication. It features an age-appropriate lineup that matches the interests of young children.
Marugoto kono 1-bokon de de dekirukana" combines the standard genres of "Moji, Kazu, Chie" with new genres such as "Eigo," "Okane," and "Machigasagashi," which are becoming increasingly popular as formulas for young children, in one book.
The illustrations on every page are fun to look at like a picture book, and the various problems that appear one after another are very popular and keep the students interested.
This time, three books (3, 4, and 5 years old) have been made into an app, and smartphonenote (supplementary information) symbolThe new system is designed to be enjoyed on tablets.
*Because the principal is a work with A4 full-page illustrations, some problems may be difficult to operate on a small screen if you are using a smartphone. Some of the pictures and choices in the questions can be enlarged and checked by using the magnifying glass button, etc.
*Three-dimensional craft problems are not included in this application.
With problem narration, you can easily and quickly solve problems on your own.
The book's problems are retained, but sounds and movements unique to the app are added.
The problem text is read out loud in a voiceover narration. If you lose track of the text while solving a puzzle, you can listen to it again and again by touching the speaker symbol next to the question number.
After answering a question, tap the "Done" button to judge. If you were able to do it, you will receive a "0" and will be congratulated with a flower circle and confetti.
Even if you are working alone, the app will praise you, so you can have fun and progress quickly without having someone at home to help you.
The timer function to prevent overdoing it can also be used to set the time by clicking on the gear symbol in the "For Home Use" section. When the set time comes, "Rest your eyes" will be displayed.
