As Kalley explains each part of her invention, the drawing comes to life even as its overall purpose becomes less and less clear to her dad. It is only when Kalley explains the machine’s final component that her master plan to keep her dad from commuting is revealed. THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY --------- So, there really is a ‘Kalley’. She really drew a machine. Her dad couldn’t build it. So they made an app out of it instead. Full story at kalleysmachine.com. FEATURES ---------------------------------------- ► PLAY WITH MACHINES! Kalley’s Machine was crafted with interactivity as the first priority. Satisfyingly touchable controls put kids in charge of each twist and smash of the machine. Controls come in a wide machiney variety: ● Cranks ● Sliders ● Dials ● Levers ● Switches ● Buttons With the machine, kids can: ● Smash Stuff ● Inflate Stuff ● Shrink Stuff ● Burn Stuff (or lightly toast it) ● Paint Stuff ● Grab Stuff ● Drop Stuff ● Mold Stuff Into Shapes ● Do A Few Other Things Including... ► MESS WITH CATS! Kalley’s Machine is a story based on a 4 year-old girl’s drawing. As such, it includes cats. They are completely irrelevant to the story. However, they are way fun to harass. Tease them. Scare them. Puzzle them. Adore them. We think you’ll love the cats. ► GET YOUR READ ON! Cuz it’s a story, right? Of course, you can read the story the old-fashioned way. But, to aid new readers, we’ve also included two helpful interactive story features: ● Read-to-Me, narrated by Kalley and her dad with highlighted words. ● Touch-to-Read, where words are spoken when they are touched. ► TRY TO LEARN! Honestly, we designed this story to be fun. But if you're not careful, you might actually learn something too! The interactive medium offers kids great chances to explore some basic concepts which are both safer and less messy than their real-world alternatives. Creative parents may recognize the opportunity to discuss: ● Subtractive Color Mixing ● Pressure/Temperature Relationships ● Gear Ratios ● Air Pressure/Vacuums ● How Overcooking Can Burn Stuff ► KEEP KIDS SAFE! We have made this app super-safe for kids by having: ● No Ads ● No In-App-Purchases ● Parental Gates in Our Parents Section ## Kalley's Machine Plus Cats Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/21/ed/73/21ed7379-4c62-aabf-da7e-89b4b0358938/pr_source.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/6e/9c/6b/6e9c6b2a-88b1-81de-4300-254505c1311d/pr_source.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/c3/98/b6/c398b618-ae7b-a781-1661-0bc5b4f80908/mzl.bbxbokst.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/73/cb/f7/73cbf7f5-a135-f9bb-0f52-e0f4af05ee16/mzl.fsqyzsiz.png/960x640.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Purple126/v4/36/4f/2e/364f2e22-5d21-0a0d-4b14-7d7054a93f76/mzl.owgpdkcy.png/960x640.png) ## Kalley's Machine Plus Cats Rating Breakdown in United States - 5 stars: 33 (89%) - 4 stars: 1 (3%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 2 (5%) - 1 stars: 1 (3%) ## Kalley's Machine Plus Cats Reviews in United States ### ***** ":)" This app is so cute it just is so cool;) -- Alexmorgen228, 2016-03-19 ### ***** "Great interactive book interesting for Maker Ed" I generally don’t take the time to review apps . .but this one got me really excited. I am an education professor and also an Apple Distinguished Educator and i only heard about this App when it was free for a day. its an interactive book that has appropriate reading strategies. I just spent about 30 minutes using it with my 4 year old nephew. He played it again and again and liked each of the machines. One thing that I thought was cool, he kept asking why the “marshmallows” reset on each screen. Auntie I made it small, why is it big again? it lead to a good discussion on how programmers make each page work.. (His daddy is a computer engineer). The reading level is appropriate and it gives good feedback and allows each word to be spoken. The only bit of suggestion for improvement I would include would be to have something interactive on the last page or the the end page. My nephew was a little disappointed that everything was just “over” . .but he went back and started the book again.. (Maybe an interactive hug) .. So who would be interested.. I think this is really appropriate for maker education as well.. i could see using it as an intro to a lesson on designing machines. -- DrTerri, 2016-03-15 ### ***** "Adorable!" My kids love the cats! -- Casual mom, 2016-03-09 ### **--- "Please allow parents to disable swipe" My toddler likes this game, but she finds it very frustrating that when she is just touching the screen to make something move, over half the time she swipes to another page. Since this app is premised on kids touching the screen, please at least allow parents to disable the swipe feature. -- Lilybella08, 2016-03-09 ### ***** "Obsessed" My two sons (ages 2 and 4) are obsessed with this app. We're dog people and they're both violently allergic to cats so I'm not sure how they can spend so much time playing it but they do. It's easy to navigate, whimsical, entertaining and most importantly (as a parent) the sounds/noises aren't annoying. We're looking forward to more apps from Rocketwagon! -- Klm17854, 2015-06-16 ### ***** "Great for my 4, 6, and 8 year old" Lots of fun and keeps the attention of my four, six, and eight-year-old. -- Zmobile, 2014-12-21 ### ***** "Awesome app" Our whole family can't help but to get down and boogy to the theme song- every time! This app is a big hit with all the little kids that my daughters babysit! -- Humbelly house, 2014-12-11 ### ***** "Quirky and fun!" You know how your kid draws all sorts of crazy stuff, oozing imagination and improbability? Kalley’s Machine is exactly that, brought to interactive life by a talented family of artists. -- animatedintro, 2014-12-09 ### ***** "Precious Book!" A+ for this sweetly told tale! Lovely, imaginative book! -- Wagnerslp, 2014-12-09 ### ***** "Truly Unique" What a fabulous app. And now even better with a cat party. I love all the settings. Took me a while to realize that you could turn the cats on and off. Hilarious. Can't wait to share it with my Kindergarten students. Great for learning cause and effect but mostly for just plain fun. Highly recommended! -- Reading Buddies, 2014-12-09 [View all Kalley's Machine Plus Cats reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Kalley's Machine Plus Cats Discovered Keywords - rocket machines ## Apps Similar to Kalley's Machine Plus Cats - [Dexteria Dots - Preschool Math](https://apptail.io/app/dexteria-dots-preschool-math-LlIb/united-states) - [Solar Family: Planets for Kids](https://apptail.io/app/solar-family-planets-for-kids-txzc/united-states) - [Super Robot Bros: Play & Code!](https://apptail.io/app/super-robot-bros-play-code-Gamd/united-states) - [Preschool & Kindergarten Math](https://apptail.io/app/preschool-kindergarten-math-VpDe/united-states) - [Смешные зверята!
