What is Toca Life: After School?
Another installment in the Toca Life series by Toca Boca, Toca Life: After School creates for kids a safe and fun place to enjoy free time with painting, sports, dance, and skateboarding.
Available on both the App Store and The Google Play Store for $3.99, Toca Life: After School is a kid-friendly app designed for ages 4 and up. This app does not feature any in-app purchases or advertisements.
Users can explore the skate park, sports court, dance studio and art workshop, interacting with different characters and props on each floor.
Each floor has a different theme in this clubhouse where they can interact with any of the 27 characters, each with their own style, using the elevator to navigate from floor to floor.
On the sports floor, kids can shoot some hoops or gear up the characters in hockey masks, jerseys, and more found in the cabinets that open with a tap.
Or they could express their creativity in the painting room, where two canvases hang on the wall with an array of colored paints below. When the masterpiece is finished, kids can choose a frame and hang the painting on the clubhouse wall.
And then there is the dance room, where kids mix beats on the stereo and dance it up to their creation on the dance floor.
Every room offers a space to try new things and develop hobbies.
Is Toca Life: After School safe for my kids?
Toca games generally receive great reviews from children and parents alike, and the After School edition fits the trend.
Kids love the loose structure and freedom that the game offers, while parents love the safe space it provides them to explore new hobbies and express their creativity.
Toca Life: After School is an app designed for kids, and, as such, it is designed with the safety of the kids that play in mind. This game does not have violence, foul language, or pushy in-app purchasing options.
While not an overtly educational app, Toca Life: After School is a great place for kids spend time to rewind after a long day of learning. The ability for kids to engage in creative activities and hobbies that help them discover their interests is one of the most beneficial features of After School, and parents should take the interests sparked in the app and bring them more concretely into their children’s lives.
It is important not to allow all hobbies, entertainment, and creative energy to exist purely on the screen of a tablet and to encourage kids to develop skills in the areas that interest them.
Toca Life: After School may plant the seed of a lifelong interest in art, sports, dance, music, and more, but the app can only be just that: a seed, and it is up to parents to nurture that seed so it may become expression and passion in the world. Imagination can only go as far as the code of the app.
This app is safe for kids.
