What our experts think
A great educational app that explains the history of Apollo 11 and keeps children entertained through a series of games. The interactive story includes text, highlighted as it is read along, a feature we are always pleased to see in an interactive story as it helps support reading skills. The mini-games help to develop memory, concentration and a range of other cognitive skills whilst adding fun and keeping the young player engaged.
It would be even better if...
– there was some indication of the progress through the story and easier to jump to the mini-games within the story, some of the best mini-games are quite far through the story.
