Design countless funny monsters and bring them to life. This is a great app to spark storytelling to help kids confront their fears. Turn shadows on the wall into wild and wooly creatures. Give them googly eyes, tiny arms, too many horns, spotted tails, or sparkly fur — any assortment of fantastical features that you like. Bring your monsters to life! Make them happy or sad, nervous or bad, lovely or mad. Feed them radioactive snacks and make them sing and dance. Take a monster selfie and decorate with stickers. Make the monsters of your dreams! “Weird, but in a good way” — Geeks with Juniors "A wonderful aesthetic experience" — Warren Buckleitner, Children's Technology Review The Monsters is the third app in Tinybop’s Digital Toys, a series of open-ended building apps that let kids ages 4+ create, play with, and collect whatever they can imagine.

The first, The Robot Factory, is a Parents’ Choice Gold Award winner and the iPad App of the Year. FEATURES + Make monsters! Turn shadows into the creatures of your dreams...or nightmares.

Sorry I took so long. It was a fun summer vacation. Inhale. Ok, so some of the missing parts didn’t exist in real life, but it said it was in the guide for all of the people who play this game. And what I meant by that was that some of the parts were showing in the guide but didn’t show up in the game. I love love LOVE this game so please add the things from the guide to the game, okay? And, also, let me tell you this, I used the horns that look like wings for wings and horns so please let the game include real wings and other dragon body parts into the game and I used that strategy for my “water dragons” so please add some real wings so I don’t have to use the “wing/horn” strategy again. And add the missing colors in too. And I wish that there would be a button where you could scroll down the colors and stuff. And make sure that the wings could flap and also, make sure the monsters can jump out of the pics and walk around and scare everyone around the place and also if they have wings, sometimes fly around the place and the reason I got inspired was because in books I read, some monsters have wings that fly. The missing parts and colors are: blue and yellow color scheme, white and red color scheme, giant orange bug-eyes, buck teeth, flaming eyes with plus shaped slits, dragonfly wings, scorpion claws, steely eyes, and some more. I think you get it now.

Ok I LOOOOOVE your app. I love how you can make your own monsters. But there’s something I would like you to add. Ok I’ve used all the colors and patterns on my monsters. The thing is the games getting sooooooo boring now. I’d like you to add more colors and patterns. Also I’ve used all the monster forms. It would be way better if you added more monster forms to choose from. More people would buy the game IF you added this stuff. If I missed anything please add it please. Thanks!

I love this game, and all the games that tinybop puts out. They are aesthetic, creative and educational. The monster game is a little less educational and more imaginative, but wonderful nonetheless, and my kid’s favorite. He especially loves that he can record sounds for the monsters to make. (It’s really cool!)My issue is that the the game can’t seem to tell if my iPad is upright or horizontal. My stand is horizontal, so often my kid ends up playing these games sideways. Has anyone else had this issue?
