My Opinion
This product was provided to me free of charge by Kiboomu in exchange for an unbiased review. This review is in compliance with FTC guidelines.
I knew that if there was any app to start with for reviews when it came to Little Man this would be the one. It is one of Little Man’s favorite songs to sing. I downloaded the app and put it in the folder on my phone titled “Little Man” with every intention to sit down with him and show it to him within the next couple of days. He found it before I had a chance to show it to him. I walked in the living room to find him quietly sitting on the couch trying to play along with the keys that were lighting up on the piano.
As you can see from the picture you are able to choose different instruments for the sound. This is how you are able to choose to add animal sounds. The song will still play as normal and the app will sing the song but when you press the keys it will make different animal sound. I thought this was hilarious and added a little extra fun to the app.The only thing mommy doesn’t like about it is that the song loops about 4 times before it stops. Great for little ones that you want to keep entertained but not so great for mommy who tells her son “When the song is over you have to give mommy back her phone” while not knowing it isn’t going to be over as soon as you think.
Little Man gives this app 2 thumbs up. If you have a pre-schooler who likes nursery rhymes and music I highly recommend you download this app. It will keep them entertained and quiet which is always great on a car ride.

We love singing Twinkle Twinkle of course, but also Mary had a Little Lamb and so many more.
Honestly, Twinkle Twinkle has always been a favourite of his. And I remember how surprised I was to learn there were more verses!! Eensy Weensy Spider is also a hit.
I think my kids like Mary Had a Little Lamb the most, though Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is a close second!
I enjoy singing lots of songs. Twinkle Twinkle is probably our favourite, but we also enjoy the itsy bitsy spider.

We sing lots, including Jack and Jill and Hey Diddle Diddle. Right now, my little guy loves singing Ring Around the Rosie, especially “all fall DOWN!”

My daughter enjoy singing the itsy bitsy spider.
