BAND-AID® Magic Vision App Featuring the Muppets #InspireCare #JnJ

August 19, 2012 by Momstart 8 Comments

By: Ashley

Band-Aids have come a long, LONG way since I was a kid. I remember how cool I though “ouchless” BAND-AID® s were. I feel like that should be on one of those “Remember When” lists. Remember when it hurt like a monkey’s uncle to tear off a BAND-AID®? Then came the crazy colors, super cool characters, and I’m not even going to touch on the amazing knuckle BAND-AIDs or BAND-AIDs with Neosporin already on them! I know we’re all amazed by advances in technology… but I am dead serious when I say that advances in BAND-AIDs have impacted my life for the better!

So what happens when you put those two things together – advances in technology and advances in BAND-AID® awesomeness? You get an app designed specifically about BAND-AID® s. If you haven’t seen the BAND-AID® Magic Vision app featuring the Muppets, then you need to check it out ASAP. I’m sure that the thought behind it was to help kids feel better when they get hurt through the wonderful world of distraction, but who are we kidding? This app doesn’t just distract kids when they are working to get past a rough scraped knee or an owie on their finger… it’s also just fun to play with!

The app uses augmented reality to scan a Muppets BAND-AID® or box so that kids can become part of the magical Muppet world. They can swing with Kermit the Frog as he sings Rainbow Connection, or strike a pose with the divine swine, Miss Piggy herself. Gonzo the Great is even available to bring out the giggles in with his one of a kind, daredevil stunts. They coolest part is that you can take pictures (and store them) with the characters. You don’t believe me? The proof is in the pictures. 😉

Johnson and Johnson is always on the cutting edge of first aid care. It’s really no surprise that they found a way to make BAND-AIDs interactive and fun. Check out the Magic Vision app featuring the Muppets (for iPhone/iPad) as soon as you can. Your kids (and YOU) will never think of BAND-AIDs the same way.

10 Disney Digital Books for Young iPad App Readers

Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue—A Magical Adventure

Tinker Bell is trapped on the mainland! Find out how Vidia, Rosetta, Silvermist and the other fairies use their talents to rescue Tink in this magical storybook app.

Both Miles and Zoe are greatly enjoying Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue. We have the movie and watching them listen to the story is better than the movie. There is an interactive part to it where Zoe believes if she blows on the iPad she can make more fairy dust appear. Readers can control the magic by “blowing” fairy dust into the scene with an exciting new interactive feature. Plus, animated surprises throughout the story will be sure to delight fairy fans! I love watching her make the Fairy Dust. She gets so excited every time.

TRON: Legacy The Complete Story

Sam Flynn is the rebellious 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn, a computer programmer who disappeared when Sam was just a child. When Sam looks into his father’s disappearance, he finds himself pulled into the same world of brutal programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for almost 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidante, Quora, Kevin Flynn and his son Sam must embark on a life-and-death voyage across a visually-stunning cyber universe to put an end to the evil Clu and his reign of this digital world.

I was worried that Tron Legacy the Complete story would be too scary for Miles. It’s not scary, this one has the book option where you can read it to yourself, or you can watch the mini videos of the story come alive listening aloud. Miles prefers the videos since I’m not always available to read it to him.

Free Children’s Books with Nook Kids for Apple’s iPad

March 5, 2011 by Momstart 3 Comments

When I was reviewing the NOOK Color’s children’s book collection Zoe and Miles were just mesmerized with the books. So I wanted to keep you updated on the latest NOOK Kids news!

NOOK Kids for iPad

Did you know that Barnes & Noble has an iPad app for NOOK Kids? The app allows you and your kids to enjoy more than 12,000 chapter books along with nearly 300 digital picture books – the world’s largest and growing catalog of interactive books for kids.

The iPad app lets you bring your family’s entire bookshelf with you wherever you go and explore the dynamic books for kids on your iPad, from beloved classics to new favorites, featuring the original artwork in beautiful color and a fun, interactive kids’ reading experience. My kids really enjoy looking at interactive books on the iPad. Before this new app, Miles and Zoe would play with the Sesame Street book, The Monster at the end of this book. It’s quite a bit of fun being able to tickle Grover, and knock down a wall of bricks.

When you download NOOK Kids for iPad, you can now enjoy the following two FREE children’s book titles, both with Barnes & Noble’s exclusive Read to Me feature.

1. Elephant’s Child by Rudyard Kipling

2. Fun Facts about Pets by award-winning children’s science author Seymour Simon
