Sound Shaker Review

Our Review

“Sound Shaker” is a really exciting sound game from Tickle Tap Apps. There are six different sounds to choose from including the flute, drum, and farm animal sounds.  I really enjoyed giving my 2 1/2 year old  son the phone and watch his face as he explored this app. He soon discovered on his own that you can make balls bounce around the page, making sounds when they knock into each other. He was delighted when he realized you could tap longer to make the ball grow bigger, the sound and color changing as well. If you keep tapping the same ball, it cracks open and becomes a chick that flies away. The look on his face the first time this happened was priceless.  I like the cause-and-effect this game teaches and how every time we play with this game, it is different. This app, as well as other Tickle Tap Apps are worth checking out.

Description from the Developer

Tickle Tap Apps presents Sound Shaker, the delightful and hilarious sound-making game. Winner: Parents' Choice Awards GOLD, Mobile App category.

“Sound Shaker is hilarious. We were all laughing so hard – literally tickled – by this silly game.” Mama Hall, mom blogger.

This highly intuitive musical app is also incredibly amusing. It lets children create and play with chime, whistle, drum, barnyard animal and mystery sounds by simply tapping and tilting. Repeated taps generate new sounds, while longer taps grow sounds and trigger surprise animations. Tilting makes sounds spin and collide in whimsical combinations.

"Want to see a 21st century rattle? Innovative and easy to use, this bite-sized App engages young children with music in a way that could only be done with a motion sensing device like an iPhone or iPod Touch." Children's Technology Review

“I love how creative this is. The sound is wonderful too, not tinny and annoying to your ears (which is good because your kids will be playing this for a long time).” Another Day, Another Thought

“Sound Shaker is almost like an interactive art installation, mixing shapes, sounds and interaction beautifully.” The Best iPhone Apps 4 Kids

Sound Shaker helps children:
- Learn about sounds
- Practice listening skills
- Improve concentration

Recommended for ages 3-5.
