iPad App Review - The Berenstain Bears Come Clean for School

~ Posted on Wednesday, October 30, 2013 at 8:07 AM ~

We are not really a big fan of The Berenstain Bears' apps but the moment I saw the pitch review for this app, I decided I must review it as hygiene and manners are something that I would definitely want to instill in our kiddos' life and I'm hoping we could learn something from this story app!

* It is engaging and interactive and I love that we can also touch the objects in each page on the screen and the words pop out to tell you what it is!

* I used the opportunity in this app to teach our 4.5 years old boy to maintain his hygiene and cleanliness, to cover his mouth whenever he coughs or sneezes so that the virus and/or bacterias will not spread around and infect others.

* I reminded our boy that his habits of washing hands before and after snack times during his playgroup is a good example to maintain hygiene and gently reminded him to continue this good habits everywhere, not just during the playgroup time.
