Created by parents for their own children (and tested extensively with those very same kids), Hippo Hooray Numbers is a great way to help young children learn their numbers, practice counting, and keep them entertained. From the makers of Hippo Hooray Colors, Shapes, and Letters displays the numbers 0-20 on wooden tiles, and written on the blackboard. A young voice encourages your child to choose the right number, helps them if they don’t pick right the first time, and pats them on the back when they choose correctly. In addition to teaching kids to recognize numbers, Hippo Hurray Numbers has counting screens where children can count cupcakes, party hats, and balls. There’s even a line of text for grownups to use to help guide their toddler and to help in noisy environments. Every so often a short video will pop up congratulating your child on doing a great job. Rather than a quiz format, each screen is like a little teaser for your toddler to learn from.

Amid beautiful illustrations, you’ll find Honey the Hippo and Raphael the Robin (yes, he paints!) peeking out from behind scenery, and coming out to encourage your child. (Keep an eye out for the monkey with the cupcake hat.) In addition to high quality artwork, the user interface is incredibly simple letting your toddler focus on cognitive, language, and motor development.
