Editors’ Notes

As sweet and colourful as the beloved children’s book, kids can draw, colour, sing and even learn to grow strawberries for the caterpillar’s snack!

Great App

Great App, my 2.5 year old loves it, we’ve gone from kinda interested in a few letters to matching capitals with lowercase. Purchased a few apps over the virus lockdown period and I can honestly say this is head a shoulders above the rest, there’s so many options and content that we still keep discovering stuff. I would recommend you play this with your child if they are 2 - 4 they take in more when you play it together. Big thank you the creators of this game, amazing job 😊

Adults Having Fun

Hi there. I am a 68 year old totally besotted Granny who of course wants only the best for our 3 belovèd grandsons ranging from nearly 6 years old to just 10 weeks. I have chosen to undertake some research projects into early childhood developmental patterns. Thus my reading material at bedtime is children’s literature. So far my highest award would go to Jill Tomlinson’s”The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark”. Am currently reading Dick King-Smith’s”The Hodgeheg”. Another marvellous book! As someone who struggles on the mental health front(depression and anxiety issues), I now find myself going to sleep feeling really happy and uplifted. In fact I never knew until now how therapeutic and healing a child’s eye’s view of the world can be. To my mind children these days are not awarded the time and respect they so richly deserve....”The Hungry Caterpillar” has always been a great hit in this household and our eldest grandson, aged just under six, wrote a fabulous story based on it and called “The Hungry Alien”. It is a real joy and pleasure to hear and see him reading it! My favourite video clip ever...I have certainly enjoyed this morning’s entertainment very much and look forward to much more in the future with my grandsons. Thank you.
