About Dot to Dot
Numbered dots hide a picture, such as a house, a rocket, a fish or a star. Your child taps the dots in order or traces from dot to dot with a finger, while a voice counts along. When the line closes, the picture fills with color and shows its details.
How to play
- Start at the lowest number and find the next one.
- Tap each dot in order, or slide a finger from dot to dot.
- On a computer, jump between dots with the arrow keys and press Enter.
