MeeGenius!

My previous post was about how young children are using iPads more and more each day. This is the first step in being proactive! MeeGenius is a free app that teachers and parents can download on their iPad or iPhone. It comes with 6 starter books: The Field Mouse and the Town Mouse, Rapunzel, The Ant and the Grasshopper, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,  Pinocchio, and Jack and the Beanstalk. When you click on the book, it has the option to either read it yourself, or it has an audio children can listen to while the words are highlighted! 

If a child is in the waiting room at a doctors office, jump start this app, plug in your headphones and let the magic begin! Your child will be occupied and educated at the same time.

You can also buy more books in the bookstore. The priciest book is about $5.00 and the lowest price is .99, but you can read them as many times as you'd like. Remember when you had your favorite book and that was the only thing you wanted to read. With this app your favorite children's book will be available any time, day or night. 

There is also a Bookclub option! When you invite other friends who have this app to your book club, you can share the book that you enjoy, and they can share their most favored books as well. 

One other wonderful aspect of this app is the "Author Challenge."This part of the app is for regular people who want to be authors! They have the opportunity to send in their book and ultimately have it published :) 

Try MeeGenius today! You won't be disappointed!
