Lola Slug at the Exhibition

Lola is adorable! Her smart and beautiful story app is as fun as a video game and as educational as a book. Its graphics have been optimised to make it easier for children to read. With just a simple touch, you can choose between uppercase and lowercase text, and listen to the story, or just read it alone with the aid of special rulers.

Math Apps to Use During the School Year
“There are many math apps that span a wide spectrum of math content, often a full year’s worth of content that you could easily work into your school or homework plans. It’s helpful to find one your child enjoys and that easily combines with your routine if you feel he needs additional support in math or loves math.” See more at KinderTown.
