Duck Duck Moose recently released an HD iPad version of their app Itsy Bitsy Spider. This was not my favorite of Duck Duck Moose’s iPhone apps but I love it on the iPad. It felt busy to me on the iPhone screen but everything works very well on the larger iPad. To move through the Itsy Bitsy Spider song you must tap on the spider. She moves from screen to screen along with the lyrics. Each screen illustrates a portion of the song and there are plenty of things to tap on the screen. My favorite discoveries were seeing a banana slug turn into a banana, watching a caterpillar eat a cupcake and discovering how to put hats on the spider. A cute little fly buzzes around throughout the app. If you tap on her she’ll tell you an interesting fact or two. Itsy Bitsy Spider is a short song and there are only four different screens to the app. The developers have kept things interesting by adding in new things to tap and collect as you go through the song again.
Itsy Bitsy Spider features a man’s voice singing the lyrics. You have the option to record yourself abut I missed the different singing/instrument choices that are usually found in a Duck Duck Moose app. All in all I’m very glad to see Itsy Bitsy Spider on the iPad and I think it’s a fun app for toddlers and young preschoolers.

I love duck duck moose. They do some great apps. I’d love to see how you would rate these apps. Have you considered a Rotten Tomato type rating? Since it’s a kid app maybe you can give it a grade.

I’ve thought about doing ratings but since every app is so different I have a hard time figuring out how to compare them all. If I did do ratings the Duck Duck Moose apps would get A’s across the board.

I agree with the A’s for Duck Duck Moose. Thanks for doing spending the time to do this.
