Yesterday afternoon Eva and I painted a SqwishLand parrot which is called a Sqwarrot. SqwishLand.com combines soft and squishy little rubber animals with a kid-safe online world. SqwishLand not only has little rubber animals but also there is a DIY kit that kids can get and paint their very own SqwishLand animals. We received the Sqwarrot. Eva loves painting and she had a nice time painting this parrot. I helped her a bit, especially with a the bat symbol on the front of the parrot. Continue reading Painting a Sqwishland Sqwarrot→
About a week ago Eva and I got a new iPad App called Ansel and Clair’s Adventures in Africa. Instantly the app became a hit in our house. I knew that Eva would enjoy it because the App had non stop action and beautiful graphics. Eva is in the “Why” stage of childhood. Her answer to every question is pretty much always “Why”. Or rather she will ask Why does this do that or why does that mean this. She is very inquisitive.
The main character of the App is Ansel. Ansel is a Virtoosian travel photographer here to take photos of various African animals and sights. Clair is a robotic travel guide who has extensive knowledge of Earth and all the creatures and places on Earth. Together Ansel and Clair have to journey to the The Serengeti, The Sahara and The Nile. They are in search of pieces to their space cruiser Marley. As the child explores each different place they find out about animals, the weather, famous structures and more all while searching all over for pieces of the ship and taking photos of all that they see.
