Introduction

If you're looking for that perfect book to add to your child's bedtime routine we have an app which features a collection of original stories. The Joy Tales Books app can be used on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and is ideal for kids ages two through six. What's great is that the stories aren't just fun to read; they look at everyday life situations and problems that may pop up and discuss ways to deal with them. The app offers an interactive experience, which of course will keep kids entertained.

Read and Engage with your Child

Reading with your child is a wonderful and educational activity for parents and teachers to do with kids. The Joy Tales Books app gives you the ability to read seven original stories, all of which offer interactive animations. The books offer voice-overs and because the app supports multiple languages you can also enjoy the voice-overs in a variety of languages. The app has been designed to be child-friendly with easy-to-use controls and navigation. There are no ads either so parents know it is child-appropriate content.

Enjoy Reading Together

The Joy Tales Books app really promotes the joy of reading and shows kids just how much fun it is to step into these different books and enjoy them. There are a variety of fun details in the app as well as handy features to make the experience smooth. Each of the original stories also offers illustrations that are meant to appeal to kids. If you need to stop reading halfway through the book, don't worry: you can make use of the bookmark tool.

Kids can enjoy the books in a variety of ways; they can have it read to them with the audio narration, they can read it themselves, or have parents read to them. Of course they can then take part in the interactive elements and there are three games to play. What I like is that this app gives kids some independence because if you are unable to read to them they can still listen to the recording of the story.
