Activity begins with the melody of the dino “Xenegugeli". As the image of the animal is swiped, the relevant first letter is identified, both by name and the sound associated with it. By tapping twice on the image of the animal depicted, the user advances to the writing exercise. When the upper-case and lower-case version of the letter are written correctly, the animal becomes animated and emits a sound. A segment from a song in the relevant language then plays. The english version is sung by Clare de Lune.
The 26 animal songs can be downloaded directly from iTunes Store via the parental gate at the end of the app.
