About Cutie Monsters Jigsaw Puzzles (excerpt from Children’s Technology Review)

Want to learn to count to ten? Each page of this ten screen storybook features a playful (non-scary) monster with names like Blushy, Toothy, Golly, Taily, Blobby, Growly and Snouty. There's one for each numeral, from 1 to 10.

You can have the story read out loud, read it yourself with touch-and-hear text, or (the best part) assemble the monsters as a jigsaw puzzle.

The puzzles are easy to solve (with just three or four pieces), and they do a nice job tying story and numeral concepts together.

Ages: 1-4. Platform: iPad. Teaches/Purpose: spatial relations, some reading. Rating (1 to 5 stars): 4.5 stars. Entry date: 1/25/2013.

Paul Smith, Director at Little Phoenix Interactive, expressed his excitement at having won the award; “ it’s fantastic to be recognized. The Children’s Technology Review has been a leader in reviewing children’s software products for over 20 years. In such a competitive industry, we are thrilled to have received an award for design excellence.”
