Don’t Let the Pigeon Run This App! Review: My almost 5-year-old loves this app! And I am not just saying that. He plays this all the time. This app is such a fun way to keep him occupied! There are several options to get you started with creating your story. You can choose; Egg, Chick or Big Pigeon.

With the egg option, you shake the phone (the pigeon moves about) and the story starts by itself. There is also the read feature where the word are on the screen or they can be hidden.
With the Chick option, the bus driver gives you several options to choose from to create the story, options like food, numbers, games, a stinky thing, a person and something that you don’t want the pigeon to do. And each time you create a story there are different options so it different every time!
With the Big Pigeon option, you get to say your answers which is a cool feature because the story is truly unique to your child and get’s them to think about what they like. You do need to speak loudly and clearly with this feature. This is his favorite way to play because not only does he get to hear his voice but the crazy answers he came up with.
