New: Animal Crosswords is Famigo Approved!

Animal Crosswords is a new, fun, and educational app for children just beginning to learn to read and spell. Your child can both play and learn at the same time!

Animal Crosswords contains 56 proffesionally designed crosswords (multiple word intersections). Each crossword contains a new animal as the main theme and the app contains over 300 of the most common words children learn to spell in the beginning, but there are also some tricky words of course.

Each crossword consists of beautiful and clear images that your child will use as a clue for the missing words. All the crosswords can be solved over and over and the crosswords in each category slowly increase in difficulty to challenge your child’s spelling. As your child solves more and more puzzles, more puzzles will be unlocked!

Crosswords are divided into the following category of animals:
- Sea animals
- Zoo animals
- Forest animals
- Farm animals
- Jungle animals
- Small animals
- Pets
- Birds

In each crossword puzzle your child can easily:
- Switch between uppercase and lowercase letters
- Display the entire alphabet or only those letters that appear in the crossword
- Reset the crossword and start over
- Go to a new crossword group

You also set the following from the parental control page (accessed from "i"-button on the main view and then clicking on the the green button):
- Show/hide letters: Show the correct letter in the crossword. A good tool for small children who can not spell but like to play with the letters.
- Reset the whole game: resets all levels and progress.

The game includes few explanatory texts. It is easy and intuitive for children to understand how to play the game. The layout is soft and harmonious, as is appropriate for smaller children.

If your child gets stuck in one crossword puzzle, you can switch to another without having to start over. Everything is saved until you solve the whole crossword.

For your child’s sake, the game is ad- and link-free, and also free from so-called "in app purchase".

Animal Crossword is developed by OkiDokiApps and of course tested on children!
