Description
Elmo wants you to make a monster friend! It’s easy! Choose a monster body and touch its face to give it eyes, nose and a hat—there are lots and lots and lots to choose from. When you’re done, Elmo will dance and play with your monster! This is going to be so much fun!

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

Features
* All original Sesame Street video.
* Elmo’s photos of your monster go to your iPhone/iPod’s photo album.
* Elmo interacts with your monster.
* Your monster comes alive to dance and play.
* Change your monster as many times as you like.

Parade Mode
* Touch one of the monster bodies to get started.

Create Mode
* Touch your monster’s face to give it eyes, a nose and a hat. Keep touching the same spot to keep changing your monster’s features. When you’re ready to play with your monster, touch the green arrow.

Play Mode
* Touch the camera icon and Elmo will take a picture of your monster. This picture will appear in your iPhone/iPod’s photo album.
* Touch the Elmo icon and the little red monster himself will jump in to play with your monster!
* Touch the music notes icon and your monster will dance for you!
* Touch your monster any time for a surprise!

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.

Worth every penny

My daughter (27 months) loves this app so much. She literally plays it for over an hour at a time, and throws a fit when I turn it off. She is constantly surprised with all of the new things the monsters do. The only downfall is that every time Elmo takes a picture of the monster, it goes in your iphoto library. I was surprised to see over 200 monster pictures in my library, but that is a small price to pay for how much my daughter loves this app.
I love making monsters!!!

This is such a fun app - and everything is so shiny and high quality! I can't get enough of dressing them up - they are filling up my phone's photo library. I'm assigning the picts to my friends in my contact list, so funny monsters come up whenever they call me ;) And of course Elmo is always such a cutie :D

This app is super fun. If you grew up with Sesame like I did you'll soon realize this app is fun for "kids" of all ages. Plus the feature where Elmo takes a picture of the Muppet you just created then you can email it to a friend is very cool! Bravo to Sesame for creating this app.
114 MB for a child's game??

I think this is a great game and very entertaining, but the size of the program (114 MB) is outrageous!

I can't help but smile every time I hear Elmo. I showed this app to a couple of very hard to please (cranky) people and even got smiles out of them! I am amazed at the incredible resolution. Also, I just read someone's idea of assigning the monsters to people in his/her contact list.....I love that idea!!

My little boy loves the monster maker but there is only so much you can do and it's not really that much. If there were more monsters and more or different things to do then this would be the best app for kids hands down. Please add something different, I think alot of parents would feel the same.
Finally a Elmo app
