Shapes in French
By Dmytro Syrykh, the parent who makes Kidster
Spoken by a native French voice, the same recording a child hears in the Kidster app.
All of these are free in Kidster.
Good to know
French shape names are close to English ones but sound quite different: carré for square, cercle for circle, and hexagone, which is also a nickname for France itself, because of its outline on the map.
