Lila's World:Create Play Learn

A lot or a little?

Parents need to know that Lila's World:Create Play Learn is a subscription-based virtual dollhouse that combines open-ended pretend play with guided interactions. Kids can explore a couple of pre-loaded scenes, download additional scenes, or create their own. In the create section, kids will need to allow access to the device's camera so that they can take photos of drawings they make on paper. The process for photographing paper drawings is sometimes complicate and finicky. Parents should be prepared to provide lots of help. Kids can also upload their drawings to the app community for other kids to use. The developers state that all upload submissions are reviewed before being included in their database. The developers describe an Augmented Reality feature in the app, though at the time of this review it didn't seem to be available. The free download includes access to a limited number of scenes. And though there are some options around diverse characters and cultural representations, there's room for much more. Read the developer's privacy policy for details on how your (or your kids') information is collected, used, and shared and any choices you may have in the matter, and note that privacy policies and terms of service frequently change.
