Pros and cons of Wee Rockets app for iPhone and iPad

Wee Rockets app good for

Simple yet efficient app for a 5-year old boy. Great to share with friends, each kid can create a rocket according to its preferences and the creation process is quite short, so the other one does not have to wait too long to play again :)
And I like the artistic look, intuitive play, clean graphics and lack of commercialization. Thank you!!

Some bad moments

My daughter likes the drag and drop UI of the rocket assembly. She loves that she can choose different color parts that mix and match. The drop points are soft enough that a toddler doesnt get frustrated needing pixel perfect precision.
Really cute graphics and nice sounds (although I wish it said, "3-2-1 blastoff!" instead of the three beeps). This would be great for a child under 2 or so, and I think my 2.5 year old will enjoy it... But definitely not enough for a child in the 4-6 range. I like the mission and the positive reinforcement. Edit: wow, my 2.5 year old LOVES this, so I added a star back. She is having a blast (!) with it and the repetition actually seems like a comforting plus to her. Its really so cute and great music.
This game is lame. Held my kids interest for all of a minute. Never again!
My almost 4 yo son loves this app. Build an endless amount of rockets and then blast them off. Race them through space to collect planets. Lots of fun! I would LOVE to see more apps from these guys! Thank you!
My 2 year old, who s very good with the iPad, picked this game up immediately. It doesnt provide the longest playing experience for him but its a cute game.
Looks cool. But is very simple and too repetitive. It has like one screen that plays over and over.
