"The coolest thing about WEE ALPHAS is that it takes the approach that just because kids need to learn the basics like ABCs, doesnt mean they have to be bored. In fact, this app is quirky enough to entertain the parents playing the app with the kids ... Wee Alphas is a standout example of a fun, quality preschool education app."
-Dana Villamagna, Common Sense Media

"Brilliant! Its fun for kids, and not at all boring for adults. So smart, simple, intriguing, thoughtful and well-designed. Its quite possibly a cosmic sign signifying the end of kids books printed on paper."
-Charles S. Anderson, world renowned designer and founder, CSA Design Company and CSA Images

"I love it! My favorite is Charlie the Chipmunk because he has a cheese flag and I like cheese. Also I tap tap tap and change Violets hair to a ponytail or something." (giggle) "My special letter is Q."
-Quinn, age 3

"Hipster parents rejoice! A fabulously designed app called Wee Alphas is here!! The beautifully stylized animal characters in Wee Alphas makes one think of Mid-Century Modern meeting Sesame Workshop ... a visually stunning, fun-to-use app for kids."
-YogiPlay

The somewhat silly stories and quirky illustrations of Alexander the Angelfish, Biki the Buffalo, and their furry, feathered or finned friends, are full of surprises.

Find each letter of the alphabet hidden in the animals, activate animations, and then practice drawing your own special letter - set to rad music by Rabbit!

Fun features include:
-Interactive animations that respond to touch, encourage discovery and promote pre-literacy skills.
-Music, narration and sound effects from indie rock band Rabbit!
-Letter highlighting that helps reinforce ABCs.
-A sketchpad to practice drawing your special letter.
-Tips for parents to create teaching moments.

Latest reviews of Wee Alphas app for iPhone and iPad

good design but crashes
I really like the design and interactivity of this app but it crashes. Crashing is a given for most apps but when this one crashes it completely locks up my iPad. I have to hold the home and power button for 3 seconds to force a reboot.
Lovely
Wonderful design, sweet interactions.
Wee

Brilliant!
Educational, entertaining and impeccably designed and illustrated. I look forward to more great products from wee society!
App crashes with update
Never had a problem before the recent update. Now it frequently freezes and needs to be restarted.
