App Description

***Play Advances Language (PAL) Award Winning App*** (enhanced by Tiggly Math)
Calling all future mathematicians and storytellers! Count, drag, match, and enjoy as the seemingly simple buttons you create come alive becoming part of a wildly imaginative cornucopia of storytelling. Ordinary pieces of cardboard shuffle into a variety of positions, each time becoming something new and unexpected. One bluefish with a fancy bow tie, two peanuts for a hungry elephant, three candles for a cow’s birthday cake, four gumballs for a bubble blowing frog, and five silly bananas on a camel’s back! These are just some of the stories you will help bring to life as the buttons you create set the stage for a journey through counting and the depths of your imagination!

Tiggly Cardtoons will help you learn basic math ideas such as one-to-one matching, counting, and equal sets while stretching your imagination and sense of wonderment. These creative learning math stories are recommended for ages 3 and up.

COUNTING
- Your child will create buttons by tapping and dragging them to targets, and listen to the narrator count as they interact with them
- The buttons will transform into a variety of unexpected objects including 1 tiny flower, 2 giant peanuts, 3 brave little mice, 4 leaves for a hungry herbivore to eat, or 5 yellow fish playing hide and seek with a submarine.
- And, that’s only the beginning of the story! Tiggly Cardtoons will help your child concretize abstract math in the context of familiar yet surprising events.

FLEXIBLE THINKING AND CREATIVITY
- Ever wonder what you could make with two pieces of cardboard? How about if we add a third piece? A forth one? A fifth one? Creativity is about constant experimentation, surprises, and imagining things in many different ways. We invite your child to imagine what a piece of cardboard could transform into -- and in so doing, encourage them to imagine all the possibilities that abound in their everyday lives.
