What’s It About?

Kids go on a road trip with Mickey and friends. Prompted by voice instructions, kids play mini-games ("Try dragging the toon car”), and watch words from the story appear on top of the screen. Mickey takes wrong turns and gets lost in other habitats, like the Arctic and a desert. Kids are instructed to tap on animals, count them, tap on the camera to take a photo, and then put photos with a certain number of animals in Mickey's photo album. By shaking or tilting the screen, kids can make it snow and activate other cool surprises.

MICKEY'S WILDLIFE COUNT ALONG keeps everything -- both the information given and the way the app is played -- very simple for little ones: "Is this one animal? Tap it if it's one animal." "This is the cold, snowy Arctic." If the app asks for a group of three animals and a kid taps on a group of four, it will say, "No, that's too many." Mickey explains simple basics about animals and habitat: "It's way too cold for a dolphin to live here." This app is fun for little ones who are just starting to learn how to use apps, how to count, and what animals live in different habitats.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

  • Talk to your kid about why an animal species that lives in one ecosystem cannot live in others. For example, why would a lizard thrive in the desert but not the Arctic?

  • Encourage your kid to notice groups of animals, such as pairs of birds or dozens of ants. Which animals like to live in groups or pairs, which ones are OK being alone?

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
