My Little Suitcase

My Little Suitcase lets your child pretend to pack a suitcase and pretend to take a trip camping, to the beach, a sleepover or a play date in the snow. They’re given a suitcase and four choices of what to pack. For example they’re shown four pairs of socks and they can drag one into the case. Then they’ll be given more choices to make until the suitcase is full and it’s time to be off. Each “trip” lets your child do something different with their suitcase. At the beach they can unpack their things and rearrange them on the screen. When they go camping they’ll be able to drag a lantern around the screen and look at everything in the dark. When they visit the snow they can unpack their suitcase and dress up a snowman. Finally, at the sleepover they’ll take  a stuffed animal and get her ready for some fun. In each different scene there are things to tap on the screen. You can turn ordinary stars into shooting stars, open and close beach umbrellas and change the moon’s phase.

This is a cute app that seems best suited for preschoolers. It’s well put together and is based on a fun idea – packing for a trip. I’m hoping that more “trips” are on the way in future updates. It would be nice if packing for vacation was this easy. If all we needed to take was socks, pants and a shirt I think I’d be inclined to take more trips!
