Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming Words - Nickelodeon

Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming Words
Nickelodeon
Genre: Education
Price: $1.99
Release Date: March 3, 2011

The second in the Nickelodeon Literacy Suite, Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming Words focuses on your child’s emerging literacy skills. By matching rhyming words and more with Dora and Boots in this educational application, your child will become aware of individual sounds (phonemes) in words and how they are sequenced and changed to make new words. The ability to hear, discriminate and manipulate phonemes is highly associated with reading readiness in early childhood and considered a critical skill for the development of reading skills.

In this game, Dora and Boots want to go over the Troll Bridge, but the Grumpy Old Troll challenges them with a riddle: “To get past the bridge of the Grumpy Old Troll, find the tokens to pay my toll.” The player must listen and match rhyming pairs to collect tokens, and then, use a slingshot to get those tokens in the Troll’s moving basket. Only then will they be able to go over the Troll Bridge.

And the adventure continues! After finding the rhyming pairs, your child will progress to hearing initial word sounds, ending word sounds, and inside sounds. As your child selects a matching token, the word pairs are reinforced. Supportive directions and sound effects help guide your child in learning all about word sounds.

The educational activity of hearing matching word sounds and the challenge of getting tokens in a moving basket come together to keep kids entertained while building important early reading skills.

Ready to solve the Grumpy Old Troll’s challenge? ¡Vámonos! Let’s go!

Dora ABCs Vol 2: Rhyming Words includes:
•Easy to use tutorials lead by Dora
•4 Levels of game play with a rich set of matching words and pictures
•Word matching in different ways: rhyme, same initial sound, same ending sound, same inside sound.
•A slingshot game to put tokens in a moving basket
•Voiceovers that reinforce the matching word sounds

Peekaboo Barn
Night & Day Studios, Inc.
Genre: Education
Price: $1.99
Release Date: December 22, 2008

Inside a little bouncing barn, friendly farm animals are waiting to pop out and surprise your little one. Try and guess who they are; tap the doors to find out!

Work with your child to learn the names of animals and hear the sounds they make. Younger children will love opening the barn doors to find a new animal animation, as they learn about cause and effect and become familiar with animal names and sounds. Older children will enjoy guessing animals by sound, then seeing the animal names, which helps develop early literacy skills.

New Multiple Language Features:
Press the Language button on the Options screen to try them out.

--Choose from the built-in narrators: child's voice in English; adult's voice in English or Spanish.
--Record your own voice: We added this feature so parents, children, and visiting relatives and friends can capture their own voices and star in Peekaboo Barn. Now you can record the animal names in your native language--or grandma's voice, or grandpa's--and, if you're recording a new language, you can save the appropriate written version too, and both will show up the next time you play. (Please note, we can only support the writing systems that are supported by your device.)
--Additional languages: Two packs now available for in-app purchase, for 99 cents each:
* Asian languages 1: Mandarin, Cantonese, Hindi, and Japanese.
* European languages 1: Swedish, Dutch, Italian, German, and French.

FEATURED BY APPLE
One of the first apps to be released for toddlers, since 2008 Peekaboo Barn has been downloaded over half a million times, and played over 20 million times worldwide. It has been a top 20 educational game on the iTunes store nearly every day since its launch, and has been featured by Apple often. It won The Best Toddler App Ever award in 2009, and was named one of the top 50 iPhone apps for kids by Babble.com in 2010 and 2011. It is recommended by The New York Times, MSNBC, USA Today, Wired, Telegraph UK, Ireland’s The Independent, Parents Magazine, and the Washington Post.

Peekaboo Barn was made for you and your toddler by artists and educators, not marketers, robots, or companies repackaging clip art. Our team has backgrounds in cognitive science and child development, and we’ve worked in educational media everywhere from Penguin USA to the Smithsonian Institution. When you could really use a safe distraction--in airports, restaurants, and waiting rooms--or you'd like to try something new with your little genius, Peekaboo Barn is the educational, artful solution. Enjoy!

Have you ever built a Solar system model? Cups, bowls, and papier-mache balls are in the past, because Solar Walk is a time-sensitive accurate information-packed interactive model of the Solar system and the Milky Way galaxy.

“Amazing graphics, very informational, and very accurate. One of my favorite apps already! Worth the $2.99. The fast forwarding time interface is awesome!!!” by staceelo

"Solar Walk app is Out of this world :)
This app is so cool when hooked and played through an HDtv. The detail, music, and 3D toggle really set this apart from other apps like it." by HARR1SON

“This app is too amazing for words. Use it all the time and was worth the $.” by ilikeapps1234567890

“I showed my class this and they were all amazed! The planets looked so detailed and the Sun's glowing and fiery animation really captivated everyone's attention (including me!) I'd recommend anyone teaching or learning about the solar system this app. Five Stars!” by Kevan M

This 3D Solar System model lets you navigate through space and time, see all the planets in close-up, learn their trajectories, inner structures, history of their exploration, points of interest and more. It even has detailed 3D models of the most interesting man-made satellites. Use 3D mode to get a more realistic experience and zoom out to view and spin the entire Galaxy!

WHAT EXPERTS SAY:

“Zoom from Mercury to Pluto (which makes the cut in this app), passing each planet’s moons along the way. Because Solar Walk knows what time it is, the planets are in proper orientation to the Sun: Earth is dark where it is currently night and gradually lightens to daytime on the other side,”© by Sam Grobart from The NYT.

“Instead of exploring the night sky and deep space, you get to tour our Solar system in luscious 3D graphics. The iPad version is breathtaking with crisp graphics and beautiful color. The smooth finger controls combined with the spectacular graphics make this a perfect demo for the iPad. Dragging your finger to fly around the planets is a bit intoxicating, and I'm impressed with the smooth animation.” © by Mel Martin, TUAW.

MAIN FEATURES:
• GALAXY view - absolutely magical zoom out to view the whole galaxy option.
• TIME MACHINE - set any date you want including even minutes and take a travel through space and time.
• MOVIES - explanatory movie collection about the Earth’s phenomena.
• SATELLITES - real-time trajectories of the most interesting artificial Earth's satellites.
• LOCATIONS - arrow will show your current position on the globe, plus names of the biggest cities of the Earth, as well as sights of the Moon, Mars and Venus.
• INFO about all planets - general info, its name, its mass, radius, distance to the sun, internal structure with the picture and science missions.
• MOONS of DIFFERENT PLANETS: select a planet like Earth, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars or Urano and observe how many moons they have and their track around the planet. Select one of the moons and learn.
- MIRRORING - wirelessly mirror the screen to an Apple TV 2.

*No Internet connection required*
--------------------------------------
ATTENTION!
Mind that to use the 3D mode you will need a pair of cyan-red 3D glasses. And, yes, we know that Pluto is no longer considered a planet, but by popular vote it has been added to the Solar System Model anyway.

*Named one of Babble's 10 Best iPhone Apps for Pre-Readers*
*Top 12 Apps for Your Family Christmas iPad, by Wired.com*

In the waving grasses of the African savannah, friendly wild animals are waiting to pop out and surprise your little one. Try and guess who they are; tap the rustling grass to find out!

Have a great time with your child learning the names of animals--in English or Spanish--and hearing the sounds they make! Younger children will love peeking through the grass to find a new animal, as they learn about cause and effect and become familiar with animal names and sounds. Older children will enjoy guessing animals by sound, then seeing the animal names, which helps develop early literacy skills. Peekaboo Wild once again features illustrations by Divya Srinivasan, whose work is regularly featured in the New Yorker.

Peekaboo Wild was made for you and your toddler by artists and educators, not marketers, robots, or companies repackaging clip art. Our team has backgrounds in cognitive science and child development, and we've worked in educational media everywhere from Yahoo! to the Smithsonian Institution.

When you could really use a safe distraction--in airports, restaurants, and waiting rooms--or you'd like to try something new with your little genius, Peekaboo Wild is the educational, artful solution. Enjoy!

PEEKABOO BARN AND PEEKABOO FOREST
Peekaboo Wild is the sequel to the bestselling Peekaboo Barn, also available on the iTunes App Store. Inside a little bouncing barn, friendly farm animals are waiting to pop out and surprise your little one. Try and guess who they are; tap the doors to find out! And the third in the series is now available: Peekaboo Forest using beautiful imagery from Charley Harper. Our newest app: Kindermusik Radio, an app with over 100 kid-friendly songs and activities.

Pocket Universe: Virtual Sky Astronomy
Craic Design
Genre: Education
Price: $2.99
Release Date: March 26, 2009

New! Prepare for the Transit of Venus. Track your observations and compete with friends using Achievements!

With iPhone 4S and new iPad you can literally speak your question using Dictation, on other devices you can type it.

Have you ever looked up at the night sky, and wondered what exactly you were looking at? Pocket Universe is an easy-to-use app that will help you learn constellations, bright stars and planets. You can literally hold up your iPhone 3GS/4 or iPad in front of you, and the app will use the built-in compass to display the same view of the sky you see - but one that's complete with names and information. Then explore the Solar System, and take virtual walks on the surface of the Moon and Mars, before playing a game to help you learn the names of the stars.

For support or to ask a question, feel free to send a direct message on Twitter to @CraicDesign or email info@craicdesign.com.

"The app works beautifully, making astronomy a bit less mysterious—but no less remarkable", MacWorld

"It’s truly an impressive marvel. 5 Mice out of 5", MacWorld.

"..one of the prettiest and easiest to use. And at three bucks, it’s a steal", Cult of Mac.

Augmented Reality

Pocket Universe was the first iPhone astronomy app to support the built-in compass, and it was also the first to add a true augmented reality view using the iPhone's built-in camera! Use the camera view in the evening or morning sky to overlay the labelled view over the real sky.

Simply hold up your iPhone in front of you, and the view will be exactly what you see - but with names and information at your fingertips. Move the iPhone around to see the view change in real-time. As previous iPhone models and the iPod Touch do not have a compass, the up/down movement is automatic, but you will need to drag the display left/right yourself.

• Apple App Store Staff Favorite
• Voted Best Educational iPhone Application by AppAdvice

Key Features

• Easy-to-use astronomy application, which focuses on helping you answer the question "What's that in the sky?"
• Works on all iPhones and iPod Touch devices with latest firmware (iPhone 3GS/4/iPad2 required for compass support)
• Tracks the ISS, and predicts sightings

Math Fact Master - Addition Subtraction Multiplication Division - Fun flashcards and drills app
TicTapTech, LLC
Genre: Education
Price: $0.99
Release Date: February 17, 2011

Featured in the App Store's "New and Noteworthy" section for Education!

Quotes from recent reviews:
★ "I am a teacher. I love this app! You thought of everything and put it in simple form..."

★ "As a teacher & parent, I think this is the Best Math Fact App yet. It has all 4 operations and allows you to choose exactly which #'s to drill"

★ "It's a very straightforward app, and the flash cards are better than several apps that I've seen before..."

★ "This is a great app! It's simple and easy to use. My 6 year now thinks he has a super brain..."

★ "...This is well worth the $0.99 which is cheaper than a single pack of flashcards..."

WATCH THE FLASHCARDS FLIP LIKE REAL FLASHCARDS!

THE BEST TOOL FOR LEARNING MATH FACTS!

CHALLENGE KIDS TO BEAT THEIR TIME!

This app's core concept was to create a flexible solution that a grade school child can easily navigate and that is robust enough to grow with your child as they grow their math knowledge.

Overview –
★ FLASHCARD mode (practice) – Allows children to practice specific number sets and operators in the proven learning style of flash cards

★ CHALLENGE mode (exam) – Lets children test what they have learned

★ SETTINGS menu - SIMPLE and FLEXIBLE –
☆ Simple enough for your child to set and use
☆ Flexible - Choose ANY combination of operators and number sets

★ PROFILES - Add profiles to monitor your child's progression

★ PROGRESS REPORTS! - Flexible reporting allows you to filter on numerous items to see your child's progression
☆ EMAIL Progress Reports - We've also provided the ability to send your results to teachers, parents, or whoever! (Note: An active email account must be setup on the device to use this feature.)

★ ADDITION, SUBTRACTION, MULTIPLICATION, DIVISION

★ NUMBER SETS 0’s through 12’s - Often the “basic math facts” are considered to be problems with sums to 18 (up to 9+9) for addition and problems with products up to 81 ( 9 x 9) for multiplication and these are generally taught first. (We realize this does vary within different curriculums). We do think it is important that students learn the 10’s, 11’s and 12’s for all operations as well. We designed the app to start at a beginner’s level, so when working on the 0’s through 9’s number sets, you will not see problems included with addends or factors of 10, 11, or 12, but you can practice those problems when the student is ready by selecting the 10’s, 11’s and 12’s number sets.

★ RESULTS menu – Results screen displays after completing a set:
☆ Summary by operator and number set shows the number of items answered right and wrong
☆ Detailed listing of any actual problems missed
☆ Timed results – Gauge your child's aptitude by reviewing the time to complete a number set. Encourage your child to “beat their time".

By sounding out words or changing letters of words to make new ones, the player will help Dora and Boots cross the lake by hopping on the lily pads. Supportive directions and sound effects help guide your child in learning how to sound out words and start to read.

In between phonics activities, three whimsical mini games with Dora's frog friends offer additional play: turn lily pads to get the frogs to a flower, match colorful frogs and flowers, or stack all the frogs on a moving lily pad to reach a high flower. All three games are interspersed among the phonics activities.

You can throw fish to swooping Pterodactyls, tease the Euoplocephalus, try not to get your fingers bitten by the Monolophosaurus – and if you roar, they roar back. But beware, if you make them really mad, they might smash the glass and get out!

Each dinosaur comes with information from the latest paleontology discoveries, plenty of fascinating facts, prehistoric maps of where they lived and where they died, and spinning 360-degree clay models overseen by the world’s leading paleontologists.

The app comes with a starter-pack of six animals. New dino-packs are released regularly, so you can collect and grow your own zoo of dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs are alive again... and this time, they’re in your iPad.
