StoryMaker
SCORE: 89
Any other parents out there get
exhausted? How many parents have multiple children? How often do all of
your kids want your attention at the same time? Ever wish you could be
in two places at once? Especially at bed time. StoryMaker is one such
app that could help you tell bedtime stories.
The best way of thinking about StoryMaker is it is a slide show maker
that lets you attach audio. You build the pages in the book. You add the
pictures, add the text, and read it. That way a child can listen to your
voice and enjoy a home made book. Older children can read the text for
themselves.
StoryMaker includes a variety of different images that can be put on the
pages. Parents can also move the images around, change colors and more.
The options in StoryMaker are quite extensive. There is a neat little
page turning animation in StoryMaker. Even with this it still feels like
a slideshow to me. Maybe that comes from my high tech background.
There are a couple of different uses I can see for StoryMaker. It can be
used as a scrapbooking app. Families may want to commemorate a summer
trip taken to the beach. It can be used to assist in educational
development and growth. And it can be used to let you be in two places
at once.
I found StoryMaker a very easy iPad app to
use. I see all kinds of potential. The only downside is parents have to
invest the time on the front end. Your kids may not appreciate the real
live thing being replaced by your voice and some pictures. Kids can also
be encouraged to create their own stories and record their own voices.
