What the record shows
Alphabet learning for preschoolers
Elmo Loves ABCs is an early-learning app for young children who are beginning to recognise letters, practise letter sounds and build basic tracing skills. Elmo and familiar Sesame Street characters guide children through activities aimed at early literacy, with large touch areas and simple controls suited to preschool use.
What children can do
- Trace uppercase and lowercase letters using swipe-based activities.
- Hear letter names and sounds to connect symbols with spoken language.
- Watch more than 80 Sesame Street video clips linked to alphabet learning.
- Use colouring pages and four hide-and-seek game variations for a change of pace.
A guided, low-pressure experience
The app mixes short learning tasks with music, video and creative play, so children are not limited to repeated alphabet drills. Elmo provides familiar spoken guidance and immediate responses to touch, which can help a child continue exploring without needing constant adult instruction. The content is designed as an ad-free space for early learners.
What parents should know
The free portion is limited: 23 letters remain locked unless the relevant purchase is made. Video-heavy activities may also use more device storage than a simple letter-practice app. Those limitations are worth checking before handing the app to a child, especially on a device with limited space.
Developed by Sesame Workshop, the app sits in the Education category and has recorded 1,000,000+ installs. Its rating is 3.82 from 3,587 reviews, giving it a substantial user history rather than a short launch-period sample.
