Overview

This application is recommended for ages 0-4.

The most-loved Caterpillar in the world is hungry, Very Hungry! Find and eat all of the Caterpillar's favorite foods while you learn the fundamentals of numbers and counting, in this beautiful, interactive math game for kids aged two years and up. (Even adults will like playing level five!)
 
This game has five levels of increasing difficulty. There's a variety of things to try and different skills to practice, all building a basic math foundation. The Caterpillar will ask you to eat familiar foods from The Very Hungry Caterpillar book. Tap on them to punch out a hole, and find out if you did it right. The music is by Mozart, the art is by Eric Carle, and the game is by the creators of the renowned Peekaboo Barn. We designed it to entertain your child for hours while gradually developing their number skills.
 --LEVEL 1: Counting. This level teaches cause and effect and introduces the concept of counting. Kids will also practice with the names and symbols for numbers one through twelve.
 
--LEVEL 2: Vocabulary. In this level kids identify fruit and food within a larger set of different foods, deciding which food to eat and what to leave untouched.
 
--LEVEL 3: Quantity. Identify a specific amount of fruit and food within a larger set. For example, see twelve plums but only eat five. Unlike Level 1, kids can't just tap everything they see!
 
--LEVEL 4: Addition. Count and eat a specific number of different foods within a set. For example: See five apples, two slices of salami, one ice-cream cone, and four lollipops. Children must eat just one lollipop and two apples. When they do, they will learn they took three bites: this introduces the basic concept of addition.
 
--LEVEL 5: The Game. Now put all your skills together--with a time limit! Fruits and foods keep sliding into view while kids try to eat what the Caterpillar asks them to find. There is only one minute, so think (and eat) fast! *Points are awarded for each correct food that is found, reinforcing basic addition skills.
 
We were surprised that even toddlers were loving the first levels, while we've been playing Level 5 ourselves. What's more, the game is localized in UK English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, and Japanese! Practice your numbers and food words in other languages too. Enjoy!

    Cute game!

    A fun game both my toddler and grade schooler. It is beyond my son but he had a good time. He helps him to listen and do what is being asked. Better suited to toddlers and preschoolers.

    Will NOT INSTALL@#@$#%$&$

    Waste of money!!!!!!!! Have spent the last two weeks trying to install it. I should have listened to the reviews....it just doesn't work! I thought since it was The Very Hungry Caterpilllar that surely it was fixed, but NO! Have never had problems installing apps so could some one please fix the problem in the form of an update to the app? Thank you!

    Will not install...

    This app will not finish installing on my nook tablet. I find being told to clear my entire nook an unacceptable answer. I should not have to go through the trouble of reinstalling everything on my nook all because an app is not working properly.

    Slow and a little boring for my grands, but would be good for very young children.

    Fun App for all

    My toddler loves this app. It's something we can do together and I'm really happy that there are so many levels for her to go through as she develops her brain skills.

    My toddler enjoyed this app a few times, and now it freezes ever

    My toddler enjoyed this app a few times, and now it freezes every time she plays with it. We have to restart the Nook every time. Very frustrating.

    multiple levels, multiple fun for multiple ages!

    This game has 5 levels, each one requiring more skill than the previous. My 3 year old son who doesn't like to listen to the directions and just wants to touch everything on the screen does great on level 1. My 4 year old daughter who likes to follow directions and get everything right enjoys the higher levels. If I can spend less than a dollar and entertain 2 kids, I am happy!

    Great, when it works

    My son loves this game. It jams up after about 5 min of play though. I have to turn the whole nook off and back on again to unfreeze it. My son likes it so much I deleted it and bought it again, hoping it would work better, but no.
