I love it, my only concern (although it is Chalkboard) is that the font looks like family favourite Comic Sans. Immediately fills me with dread due to its total overexposure in the world of kids websites, nurseries, posters. Maybe a nice clean Gill Sans or Helvetica (or similar) might work instead? Either way, I be nitpicking, great job.
I didn't make the choice lightly. I tried many other fonts, but they all took the fun out of what I was trying to create. Who knows, I could change this pretty easily in the future.

Is that Comic Sans?!

@Nathan - it's Chalkboard. I thought it would make for a nice kid friendly iOS supported font.

Ha, this must be one of the few justified uses of Comic Sans (well, Chalkboard) on the Internet. Well chosen!
