ace and friends thoughts

The Webkinz Friends iPad App is FREE downloadable game that is similar to what is offered through the Webkinz Facebook page. It takes a couple of minutes to set up and then you are ready to go. My kids love playing games on the iPad, so this was right up their alley!

To set up, you must first choose a pet to represent you in Kinzille and give it a name:

As the game begins, you start to place your building around Kinzville creating your own special town. 

Kinzville is the town in which your pets will live and thrive. Essentially, the better your buildings and business do in your town, the happier the pets will be that live there. The happier each pet is, the better the rewards you will receive while playing this game. 

To advance further in this game, you can complete different tasks that are found on the left side of the screen and tracked by each of the various icons. As you complete each task, you can then move up to a new level to have access to more activities, buildings and more. 

The kids really enjoyed adding various decorations throughout Kinzville, but did get a little frustrated when they had to wait for certain things to be built or gain enough items to purchase a particular decoration. This game is highly based on a waiting for things to be built or grow, which could be tough for younger kids to understand.

Overall, Webkinz Friends was enjoyable for all of my kids as well as for me. I really liked the convenience of playing the game easily on the iPad versus having to get to a desktop computer or access the game via Facebook. I know my kids will certainly get future enjoyment playing and building their Webkinz Friends town!

My kids LOVE reading and courtesy of Skyreader™ Media, they are offering Five Top Selling eBooks Specially Priced at just $0.99!

Skyreader™ Media is launching a back-to-school promotion to encourage children to read more in preparation for the start of the new school year this fall. For a limited time five of Skyreader’s top selling interactive eBooks will be available on the App®Store for just $0.99.

Specially priced interactive Apple® iPad® eBooks for young readers include:

• Coyote’s Tale (Ages 5-9): A novel based on a Mexican folk tale that teaches children courage and wit can help turn around tough situations.

• Robo Buddy (Ages 5-9): The story of two best friends who will do anything for each other … even if it means Mom won’t be happy.

• Giant Trouble (Ages 9-13): A thrilling tale about Finn McCool, the biggest giant in Ireland, and his wife Oona, who saves Finn from Cucullin, the biggest and strongest giant in Scotland, with some very clever tricks.

• Banana Ninja (Ages 9-13): A tale of injustice and courage that teaches a lesson about the benefit of using your head before using your hands.

“Skyreader is committed to building literacy and the love of reading for both learning and leisure. We hope this very special offer will engage young minds this summer and lead to a love of reading for a lifetime,” said Kevin Gillis, CEO of Skywriter Media Inc.

“At a time when children are immersed in digital media, interactive eBooks such as those offered by Skyreader make it possible to deliver rich literature critical to reading development in a format that will engage children outside of the classroom,” said Dr. Melissa Hughes who holds a Ph. D. in Curriculum and Instruction. “Studies indicate that children who read more, read better; they also write and spell better and have larger vocabularies. Incorporating literature with the array of games and apps accessible to children is a powerful way to encourage reading for pleasure.”

As students prepare for the new school year, these specially priced interactive eBooks will enable children to take advantage of the last few weeks of summer and read.
