MY THOUGHTS:
My almost 5 year old is truck-obsessed. We have tried other Free apps involving trucks but they didn’t have a good variety of trucks or anything you can do with them. With “Cars in Sandbox: Construction” there are eight trucks to choose from and you can do a variety of actions with them. There are tasks to complete such as pushing around objects or lifting them plus there are sounds you can hear from the trucks. You first pick which truck you want to play with and on the screen it shows you the task you need to do, no reading is really required. Its funny too, for me I had a little trouble getting the controls down for the trucks but my sons had no problem at all. They were able to pick it up and play it with no problem and loved the variety.
I definitely recommend this app for any truck-fan as it offers a good variety of actions, selections and sounds!
