Little Pim Word Bag

Little Pim Word Bag is designed to help your child learn vocabulary in either French or Spanish. The app is based on an award winning  DVD series Pim is a panda and he’s got some fantastic things in his bag. There are things to do with eating and drinking, things to do with waking up smiling and things to do with playtime. Choose the category you’d like to explore and get ready to learn. Tap on Pim’s bag and watch him take out something to do with eating, waking, etc. There’s a colorful picture representing the item and then it’s name is written out underneath. Pim pronounces the word for you and then you can tap his bag again. The items all line up along the bottom of the screen and you can tap on them again to hear their name repeated. Little Pim never says the words in English so your children will need to be old enough to identify the pictures of the items. Otherwise they’ll have no idea what Pim’s talking about. Of course you can also use the app together and help guide them through it.

Little Pim Word Bag does a nice job presenting some common vocabulary in a cute way. It’s something different than simple flashcards and I like the way you can interact with Pim. To close I’d also like to apologize to Pim – I’ve no idea if he is a she or she is a he, so no offense intended Mr/Ms Panda!

Individual Text Tones for Contacts

My 9 year old daughter told me about an iOS 5 feature that I was totally unaware of until last week. Miss S. showed me how to set up individual text tones for my contacts.

What I Do

I review iPhone apps for moms. I have a decent grasp of techy things but the technical guts (for lack of a better word) of how the apps work are beyond me. So my reviews will be practical and purely subjective. Reviews for moms by a real life, actual mom. My kids will vouch for me.
