Sort and Play

Sort and Play

A sorting game for children aged 3 to 5. Your child drags colors, shapes and numbers to the spiders waiting for them, and hears every word in clear classical Arabic.

For iPhone, iPad and Mac

Three games

Colors, shapes and numbers in one meadow

In every round the spiders hang from their threads above the meadow, each with its word on a little cloud. In the grass are the things to sort, and each one has a spider waiting for it. The game speaks and shows its words in Arabic.

The colors game on iPhone: four spiders labelled light green, red, yellow and black in Arabic, with colored objects in the grass

Colors

Red, yellow, light blue… each spider takes everything in its color.

The shapes game on iPhone: three spiders labelled ring, star and triangle in Arabic, with stars, rings and triangles in the grass

Shapes

Star, triangle, ring, square… each spider takes everything in its shape.

The numbers game on iPhone: four spiders each showing a number, with groups of objects in the grass

Numbers

From 1 to 10: each spider takes the group with its number of things.

How it plays

Drag, listen and sort

  • Drag and drop

    Your child drags each thing to the spider it belongs to. The right spider is delighted and your child hears a word of praise; a wrong one says «مكانه ليس هنا» (“that’s not its place”) and the thing slides back to try again.

  • Hear the word

    Tap a spider or its cloud to hear its word any time, so no reading is needed.

  • 12 levels in every game

    Tap a game on the start page to open its level map, from one spider and two things up to four spiders and ten. Each finished level opens the next one, with stars to earn.

  • A celebration for every level

    When everything is sorted the meadow celebrates, a new friend appears, and the stars land on the level in the map as the next level opens.

  • Stars and friends

    A star lights up for every thing sorted, and every finished round earns a new animal friend for your child’s album, “My Meadow”, with 45 friends to collect. The album opens from the button at the top of the start page.

  • Gentle hints

    After two misses with the same thing, or a little while without play, a golden trail shows where it goes and the spider says its word. No time limits, and nothing to lose.

Every screen

On iPad, iPhone and Mac

The meadow stretches to fill the whole screen: iPhone and iPad in landscape, both screens of iPhone Duo, and a Mac window of any size.

The numbers game on iPad: spiders showing 6, 8, 10 and 7, with groups of pencils, ducks and apples in the grass
The shapes game on iPad: spiders labelled ring, star and triangle in Arabic, with colored shapes in the grass

Safe for little ones

No ads, no in-app purchases, no accounts and no tracking. The app collects nothing about your child and sends only anonymous play statistics and crash reports; its settings stay on the device.
