Toca Fairy Tales app review: dress them up and have fun

Reviews

Introduction

Toca Fairy Tales is an iPad and iPhone make believe game for preschoolers. Your youngster chooses one of two characters, a boy or a girl, and then dresses them from the closet. They can alter the pants and top from the sewing kit.

Which Character

Toca Fairy Tales allows your child to choose between two characters, a girl and a boy. Once your child has selected their character, they can dress him or her in accessories. Each character begins with a top and pants. Your child can then choose between nine hats, a beard or mask, three neck accessories like scarves and ruffles, and three boots and one pair of shoes. You can also change the length of the pants, shirt sleeves, and shirt length to dress.

The characters follow your tapping around the screen, and it you tap them on the nose, they will even go cross eyed. The characters also appear to become bored. If you are doing something else for a minute, then the character looks up, down, side to side, as though looking for you to interact with them.

Design Your Character

Toca Fairy Tales characters are easy to dress. It’s fun for kids to make them look silly, and then give them crazy patterns that don’t go together at all. There are eight colors and patterns, a screen of selections including saving your creation, and a selection of accessories such as buttons, belts, and stitches.

I appreciate all of the accessory selections, as there are eighteen to mix and match. Once you have dressed that character there are sixteen fabric selections, and eight more accessories to personalize your outfit further!

The kids and I had fun trying out this app, creating various characters, and trying out both nice and crazy outfits. My six year old enjoyed creating princesses and princes, and my two year old enjoyed creating wolf creatures.

Final Thoughts

Toca Fairy Tales is an iPad and iPhone make believe game for preschoolers. Your youngster chooses one of two characters, a boy or a girl, and then dresses them from the closet. They can alter the pants and top from the sewing kit. Because this app has a lot of character selection, even my 11-year-old had fun creating crazy characters for his little sisters. My six- and two-year-olds definitely enjoyed customizing their people, and it was funny how the three of them were interacting with this app. Overall, I would recommend this app for younger players, and players who have a younger sibling who they can play with. It was a great weekend lay-about activity on a rainy day for the kids to entertain each other with their funny creations.
