Famcom Launches Children's Story App

Online, August 6, 2012 (Newswire.com) - FAMCOM LAUNCHES CHILDREN'S STORY APP

Software firm FamCom Inc. is delighted to announce the launch of Kenya Kenya (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kenya-kenya/id544595761?mt=8) on iTunes, the first iPad application created for the award-winning storybook series, Jadyn and the Magic Bubble (http://www.jadynandthemagicbubble.com/).

Written by LA-based author Brigitte Benchimol (http://jadynandthemagicbubble.com/Jadyn_Site/About_the_Author.html), Kenya Kenya chronicles the remarkable adventures of Jadyn, who is transported to the wilds of African through his magic bubble. There he befriends a noble giraffe called Gigi, who takes him on a fun-filled safari through the Savannah, unraveling the mysteries of the animal kingdom, and the truth about the uncertain future facing many species.

The app is a fully animated story aimed at children aged between five and 10-years-old. Loaded with interactive features, the app is full of fun, educational activities that will keep children busy for hours:

• There are 23 pages of high-quality, interactive animation.
• A digital coloring book that allows children to color in the Kenyan landscape and animals with their fingers.
• An option for audio-only narration of the story. This will help younger children with their pronunciation. The read-only setting will encourage literacy skills.

And there's something for parents too:

• Adults (and children) can record their own narration of Kenya Kenya and play it back. Your children will never again have to miss story time because you're traveling.
• Priced at just USD $5.99, the app is an affordable way to entertain and educate children.

"At FamCom Inc we are passionate about the environment. Our focus was to create an app that was not only fun to use, but also taught children how to respect animals and conserve their natural habitat," says Karm Khanna, CEO of FamCom Inc (http://famcominc.com/).

The app is available for download at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kenya-kenya/id544595761?mt=8.
