Ocean adventures with Juana

As befits its young target audience, Juana la Iguana goes to the Beach- Learn Spanish is a simple app. Its activities are divided into six minigames, each of which covers a different topic. These include memory games, matching exercises and sorting games, each covering a different beach-related theme. After a few exercises, a short video plays in which a common children's song plays in Spanish. You can toggle Spanish or English text on and off to fit your child's reading abilities and learning style. The app contains a locked parent's area for adults to manage the app, follow external links, connect to social media and more. The number of exercises is relatively limited, making the game somewhat repetitive.
