Leave it to PBS Kids to create a fun way to spark kids' imaginations, encourage creative and critical thinking, and get them outside. Other apps let kids get creative putting together whimsical creatures, monsters, or robots, but this one extends that creative fun, letting kids create a narrative around their creature. They'll think critically about where their creature would sleep, raise babies, keep warm, and more -- as prompted by the missions -- and then they can get out and about, observing the world around them. The commands are easy for kids to complete, and each mission can be completed pretty quickly. Though the functionality is somewhat limited and kids can't create their own creature pieces, this free app still has a lot to offer.

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.
