We had a great experience with the SDK and i would like to thank the helpful people on the forums with their help and advise without which this would not have possible.

Android version and many more in the pipeline…Stay Tuned.

(we are setting up website for the new brand tinytapps and some videos to go along)

Here is the description out of the AppStore
App designed for toddlers and younger kids to learn, write and recognise alphabets and words through pictures in a fun and engaging way. A collection of all alphabets with 4 pictures and sounds per alphabet to give your young one a very rich vocabulary.

There are four sections to this app!

Alphabets & Pictures : The child learns to recognize the alphabet and identify its shape and sound. The child learns to associate pictures with the sound of the letters. 100+pictures/words. It develops superb auditory and visual skills.

Alphabet Writing : The child learns to write each letter of the Alphabet . The formation arrows, choice of color pencils and the red and blue four lines make the writing easy and fun to learn.

Alphabet Activity : Helps to evaluate and enhance the analytical and recognition skills of the child.

Alphabet Song : The ABC Song has all 26 colorful letters shaking and tapping to the rhythm and rhyme. A song your child will love! It will also help in better retention of the alphabets. [import]uid: 55009 topic_id: 13301 reply_id: 313301[/import]

Hi, great app! I just purchased it and wrote a positive review for it in the app store. I really liked the Tracing Letters portion of the app. Would you be up for sharing a little code with a fellow newbie developer here? I was wondering how you coded the tracing of letters part in your app? I noticed you had posted some sample code in the forum before:

http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2011/07/20/draw-line-using-circles-simplified

I tried out your sample code listed there but couldn’t get anything to show up on the screen. Would you be so kind as to provide us with some complete working code on that drawing feature? Here’s what I’ve got so far (posted in your other forum post)

local traceScreen = display.newGroup()  
local handWritten = {}  
function drawline(event)  
if event.x \< 260 or event.y \< 590 then return end  
 if event.x \> 495 or event.y \> 800 then return end  
 if(event.phase=="moved") then   
 handWritten[#handWritten+1] = display.newCircle(event.x,event.y,16)  
 handWritten[#handWritten]:setFillColor(255, 255, 255)  
 -- here is the line with error below  
 traceScreen:insert(handWritten[#handWritten])  
 print("Circles Drawn: "..#handWritten)   
 end  
  
end  
Runtime:addEventListener("touch", drawline)

Thanks, I’d be grateful for any reply!! [import]uid: 82194 topic_id: 13301 reply_id: 68923[/import]
