Elvin's Numbers

Elvin's Numbers — Full Description

The blue bird speaks. The wise owl listens. Your child learns.
Elvin's Numbers turns counting into a hands-on adventure. Designed for children aged 3 to 7, this colorful app lets kids drag plush toy numbers into boxes, hear them spoken aloud, and practice saying them back — all in 12 languages.

How It Works
Your child sees a row of soft, colorful toy numbers at the bottom of the screen. They drag numbers into one, two, three, or four digit boxes to build any number from 0 to 9999. Once a number is placed, two friendly characters are ready to help:
The blue bird says the number out loud — tap it anytime to hear the full number spoken clearly and naturally in the selected language.
The wise owl listens — tap it, say the number, and the owl checks the answer using speech recognition. A green checkmark for correct, a gentle nudge to try again if not.
Children can swap numbers between boxes by dragging, try different combinations, and learn at their own pace with zero pressure.

12 Languages
Switch between languages with a single tap:
English, Turkish, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Mandarin), Russian, and Arabic.
Every element adapts — the bird speaks in the chosen language, the owl recognizes speech in that language, and all interface labels update automatically. Children learning a second language can switch back and forth freely.
