Pros and cons of Wheels on the Bus app for iPhone and iPad

Wheels on the Bus app good for

My 2 year old LOVES the Wheels on the Bus song and this app is so interactive - he loves it! Especially the animals he can touch to make sounds and making the bus drive. Really cute app - totally worth the dollar for the distraction it will provide! :)
my 1.5yrold loves it. it could use a bit bigger buttons for changing pages, but besides that fantastic!. congrats! i never thought i would pay for an app. this is my first purchase because it was just too perfect. make more, i buy more!
My 21 month old loves this app! I think its great that you are able to record your own singing and my daughter loves to hear her own voice
Interactive, funny animations and the self record is brilliant. Great to play with for a 2 year old!
Cute, but not as good as Old MacDonald, because there arent as many pages. Other than that, the same and very cute.
My 4 year old son loves it so much. He plays it over and over, and shows it to everyone. It deserves 5 stars!

Some bad moments

I wouldnt write a review unless I really loved an app... And I mean REALLY! great interactivity. Excellent screens that really reach out to the child. Well done folks!
When I first bought this app, I loved it as Im always singing the Wheels on the Bus song to my 20 month old. However, now we are both bored of it, there hasnt been one update to the app to keep it interesting. In total, there is only 8 pages and this really could have been easily extended to over 20. The music and language options in the program are great. I just wish there was more substance to the program. Please please please put an update out and Ill change my review to 5 stars.
I scrolled threw the description for this app too fast as I thought the list of apps was a song list for this app. Its good and all but I wouldnt pay for only 1 song again
I thought it have a few songs but when I read more carefully only "the wheel on the bus" and it wasnt that fun at all, my 3 yr old will have much more fun by singing along with me!
My son loves this app however I recorded myself singing the song and after a few pages the sound disappears. Not just for this app my whole ipod has no sound and I have to turn my ipod off and on again to get the sound back. Would be a 5 star app if not for this bug
Kept my nephew occupied until the last update caused the sound to only worm periodically. Very upset!!!!!!!!!!!!!
