Jake's Never Land Pirate School for iPad app review

Jake's Never Land Pirate School

Price: Free

Jake’s Never Land Pirate School by Disney brings the popular television show to your iPad in a whole new way.

Any kid who loves Jake and the Neverland Pirates will beg for this app. Kids will take part in a number of fun, challenging, and education games within this app. There are four pirate themed classes to take part in and they'll even be able to earn Badges of Honor and the Official Never Land Pirate Certificate.

The sailing class has Bucky and Jake sailing around obstacles and using Bucky's tools to collect the fruit and barrels, and shoot beach balls out to the dolphins and whales.

The Map and Spyglass will help you find the hidden treasures, while the Pirate Band allows kids to play five different instruments. They'll be able to create their own song that they can show off with pride.

Lastly is the Pixie Dust class where they'll fly through incredible mazes.

The app uses locations and characters from the actual TV show so kids will recognize all the popular sites. The app is meant for kids ages three years and older.

Jake’s Never Land Pirate School was updated on July 16, 2012 and currently has 1,662 customer ratings with an average rating of four out of five stars.

There were a whole lot of features that I liked in this app. From a kid's point of view, there is plenty to keep them busy and entertained. One really fun feature was the create-a-pirate where the child uses a photo of themselves that will end up in the game.

For: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation), and iPad with iOS 4.1 or later
