The open ocean is a personal aquarium your child can explore however he or she chooses!

Amazing (5 stars)
This is one of the best apps ever! Not only is it educational, it is fun. My kids just love it. I typically don't like my kids on the iPads for an extended period of time but with this app, I feel they are learning and having fun I don't mind hoe long they are on their iPads. It is great for all ages, my son is 6 and my daughter is 8 and both are lovin it. Need to come up with more apps like this.
