Why it’s cool!
It is cool because there is a frog that you feed candy by cutting a whole bunch of ropes. You have to cut the ropes in the right order or else the frog gets very sad, then you have to start the level all over again. There are also stars that you can feed the frog for bonus points.

There are lots of levels to play. There is also one really hard part where you have to stay away from the sharp teeth that try to cut the candy.

Is it entertaining, educational or a little of both?
This iPhone app is very fun to play. It is so addictive that you keep playing it for a long time.

Cut the Rope is educational because you have to think about where to cut the rope so that the candy can fall into the frog’s mouth. You have to time the cutting perfectly and collect the stars at the same time. It sounds hard here, but when you play the game, it is easy to understand. This game requires a lot of thinking and patience.
