Create Mode:

Play Mode:

Curriculum and Skills:
* Fosters art and creativity.
* Encourages decision-making.

Troubleshoot:
* To enjoy all the sounds of Elmo’s Monster Maker, silent mode should not be activated. Apple hardware does not mute videos when the phone is in silent mode. So, the videos will play with sound, but the game audio will not. You may think the sound has dropped, when in fact the mute button is on.
