Pros and cons of Toontales - Preschool reading adventures and activities app for iPhone and iPad

Toontales - Preschool reading adventures and activities app good for

My two year old really enjoys this. Her favorite is the coloring.
This is a great app. The grand kids had a great time with it and they absolutely love the Busytown characters.
I was looking for a fun, interactive game that was educational for my 3 year old as I try not to have him stuck in front of a screen all day and this one fit the bill. He is learning things on it and loves it,
Kids can learn process, memory skills, and problem solving is demonstrated at a childs level. Love the story telling and drawings - true to form BusyTown.
I used to love this when I was a kid. Now Im enjoying it with my daughter :)

Some bad moments

Looks good but lacks substance. They watch and every so often have to play a matching game. Its a tiny bit more interactive than the tv show. Not much for an app. Im also wary of having to pay $3 for each episode. Id rather pay $5 for the entire app. I can see this app ending up costing over $20 if I were to buy many episodes.
Just cars driving by nothing to do that I can figure out dont waste your money or time...
Each new adventure is $3.00. It takes much longer to load a new adventure than it takes to play it.
This app constantly freezes, I have downloaded it twice with no success.
App crashes and will not work. No support from developer. Beware!!!! Do not download this app.
Do not buy this app! It doesnt work. It crashes as soon as you try to use it.
