Off to bed! Boys and girls - Interactive lullaby storybook app for bedtime
Overall Score: 88/100
version reviewed: 1.4
reviewed:
Best for: Interactive books, Attention & concentration, Early literacy, Language, Personal & social
What it is: an interactive bedtime book about a boy going to sleep (14 pages long).
What you do with it: listen to the narrator (or to the parent reading the book). Touch elements on pages for animations and sounds (e.g. change boy's crib into an imaginary airplane, touch stars and play with sounds, touch sheep to 'count' them etc.).
What we liked: the story, beautiful illustrations, 'dreamy' music, interactive elements complementing the story, ease of use, good reading and navigation options (all scenes can be easily accessed from the menu, useful automatic page turn option etc.). Main menu accessible only for parents.
What we didn't like: some scenes could be 'quieter' (e.g. the magic carpet scene). Some sort of 'nightstand' scene with starred sky and dimming lights after you finish the book could be an interesting addition.
Bottom line: beautiful, dreamy book perfect for the bedtime routine.
