'Plants' is the second educational kids' app from Tinybop that follows the huge success of its 'The Human Body' app that launched and topped charts last year.
In this continuation of Tinybop's Explorer's Library, Plants provides a slow-playing game that illustrates plants and animals in their natural habitats, both above and below the ground. The life cycles of nature can be observed over different times of day, seasons and years, to track changes.
The aim of the app is to help kids gain a better understanding of the world around them. To facilitate this, the app has features like recording devices and dashboards, which make it easier to get a conversation going. Kids can label plants and animals as they learn, and parents can track a child's progress as they do.
