We love this app. To your little one, it is just like they are having a FaceTime conversation with Elmo.
Our (almost) 2-year-old loves what this app has to offer, but I have a feeling he will get tired of it as he gets older. There isn’t a lot of variation in the base version of the app, and the “call” is very short.
You can even schedule calls for different situations, such as a doctor’s visit, bath time or learning to use the potty. Elmo is his usual cheerful and encouraging self in the app. We love that Canaan loves such a cheerful character!
What I like:
• Cheap
• Elmo is so cheerful
• Fun
What I don’t like:
• Short conversations
• Only a few options in the basic version
• Sometimes has glitches
