Pros and cons of Moose Math - Duck Duck Moose app for iPhone and iPad

Moose Math - Duck Duck Moose app good for

There is a glitch in the drink game when you get to Level 2 where it keeps saying the drink is wrong when its not. Very frustrating for my daughter so please fix!
This app is fun, but its very easy. Maybe in next update you could make it a bit more challenging. Also, it says this app is for 4-8 year olds, but the way the animals talk and interact is very babyish. I think you could expand the age range a bit. Maybe 4-9 year olds?
English is my daughters 2nd language so this app is a wonderful opportunity for her to learn her numbers in English. She returns to this app often and counts the appropriate number of fruits out loud (I love to hear her). Occasionally, when she feels mischievous she enjoys dropping fruits on one of the creatures head (splat!). Its more of a counting app than adding app though. So 4 stars because the description is a bit misleading.

Some bad moments

Basically it focuses on a single task: adding up different kinds of fruit to mix drinks. Unfortunately kids dont really have to add because the operation is shown with the result. The reward is adding items to the store itself. Not particularly creative. My 4-year old got bored after one day.
This is the best kids education app ever! My kid loves Dust Funnies very much! Thank you!
My four year olds review of Moose Math: "I like it so much. Do not delete it. I want to keep it!" He has been having fun building his city as well as play all the games in the app.
As an elementary teacher and mom, I recommend this App! My daughter loves it and she is learning so much while having fun.
This is an incredibly fun educational app! I love the creative characters and games. HIgh quality and very engaging!
I have been impressed with all DDM app, and this one is my favorite to date. It is doing such a great job at keeping my daughters interest and reinforcing math skills. I feel certain that math is going to be easy-peasy this year in kindergarten.
