Quality

Toy Story: Story Theater has a wide variety of options to choose from in order to set up creative stories. While there isn’t an animation feature included in the stories, children have the opportunity to record their voices, narration, and other sound effects to enhance the illustrations they have selected.

Many of the scenes, props, and other surprises are taken directly from the Toy Story movie, so children will be familiar with how these features may come together in their own version of the stories. The music options in the free play mode also help set the stage for the particular scene making for an all around great story.

Overall, the images and sound quality are very good and I am sure children will enjoy adding their own creative flair to the characters and settings from the Toy Story movie.

Education

This app is far more an entertainment app, so we have not included a rating for education.

Entertainment

This app is perfect for the children in your home with a wild imagination and those that love the art of story-telling. Upon opening the app, children get to choose from the free play or the story play modes. The free play option allows children to create a shorter story with one scene, a variety of props and characters, as well as music. Once everything is in place, they can add their own narration for the scene and save it for later viewing.

The story play option is more structured. There are three characters, scenes, actions, and props to choose from before adding their own narration. This portion of the app offers children an introduction to the story based on the character and setting that is chosen. As the pieces are selected for the story, children then get to add their creativity in recording the narration to go along with the scene. Once the story is complete, they get to watch it play on the big screen.

Toy Story: Story Theater provides great entertainment for little creative minds and parents are sure to delight in the wonderful theatrical masterpieces that children come up with.

Value

This high quality app offers wonderful illustrations, ample props, accessories, and story options, as well as endless entertainment for a very good price. For just under three dollars, children can use their imaginations to create wonderful stories with characters they love.

Child Friendliness

This app is easy to use and safe too. While there is an information button that provides access to other apps by the developer, it is protected so young children cannot access it. In order to gain access to this area, a series of numbers must be read (they are spelled out) and entered in a specific order This is a great way to safe guard young children from purchase links and advertisements.

There are no in app social media or in app purchase links to worry about so parents can rest assured this is a safe app for children.

This story app is great for children of all ages that love creating their own stories. With various Toy Story characters and props, this app will inspire and delight little imaginations as they play and create.
