Around March this year we told you guys about a cool app by Me Books, a great story book app for your iPad or iPhone and iPod touch. Me Books features classic story books like Little Red Riding Hood and The Gingerbread Man. Me Books now have a larger collection of books from the vintage Ladybird books to modern favourites Elmer, Topsy & Tim and Peppa Pig. 

Our little beeniebud is 2 years old and enjoys reading, we had so much fun with the Me Books app. We totally enjoy the Read. Listen. Record. Save. Little beeniebud could personalise her books by drawing interactive hotspots to record their own stories and sounds. At first when we done this, she was so excited that her voice was part of the story. Other than little beeniebud voice, there are famous storytellers featured on app like Sir David Jason and Tamsin Greig. It’s nice to hear familiar voices from your favourite shows. Me Books have totally made our rainy weekend fun and we shall be looking out for more cool books to purchase! 

You can download the app here. Also upon download readers will have access to the beloved Ladybird Classics title ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ free of charge. Additional stories are available for between £0.69 and £1.99 each through In-App Purchase. Cool and affordable.

mebooks logoI grew up reading Ladybird classic books and now my little beeniebud is enjoying them too but on our iPad! The creators of the award-winning The Land of Me, Made in Me have designed Me Books! Ladybird classic books come to life via a really cool app. We downloaded ours last week and the first book included was The Zoo, then you can then start building your own collection with other classic titles like The Three Little Pigs, Gingerbread Man and much more. 

The titles are narrated from well-known celebrities. There is more you can interact with the hotspots that are available throughout the book. You can do what we done and recorded our own voices and made some cool sound effects. Suitable for children of 3+, our little beeniebud is 17 months and loves to play with us on the iPad. We totally love this app and looking forward to added more classic titles to our collection.

The Land Of Me

I was lucky enough to get introduced to this wonderful and magical, award winning learning tool The Land Of Me. An interactive digital storybook that is great for children and adults alike. Unlike your classic storybooks, once you interact with The Land Of Me, your imagination keeps going on and on with the help of games, activities and print outs that are included in all chapters.

The Land Of Me made up of six chapters which are based on the adventures of three very cute friends, Buddy Boo the bear, Eric the raccoon and Willow the owl. There were lots of ohhs and ahhhs when I got to download the first chapter, which by the way is free to download. The Land Of Me is aimed at children aged 2-6, although my little one is 12 months, we still had fun as the first chapter helps with shape, size and colour. Which is a primary learning skill for little ones.

The Land Of Me is absolutely a magical experience.

Watch the video below, to find out more about the adventures of Buddy Boo the bear, Eric the raccoon and Willow the owl.
