Toy Story Showtime App Giveaway!

I am super duper excited to tell y'all
about the new Disney Learning interactive storybook
Toy Story Showtime!

My two year old loves to sit down with my Ipad
and have an absolute blast playing
with Buzz Lightyear and the gang.

He likes it for all the fun games
and cool tap functions.

He's thrilled to
tap tilt, trace, and shake the Ipad
to trigger Buzz’s moves;
and so much more.

  2. My boys love Toy Story - I'm keen to see how they interact with it. I'm interested to see the extension activities - are they virtual or real? I love it when I see children bring the two worlds together!

  4. I think this is a fantastic idea. Toy Story is appealing to all demographics and is recognized by most children. I have an emergent reader in my home and he responds the best to a combination of familar content, text, graphics and probably most importantly...technology. Designing applications appropriate for our youngest learners that uses up to date technology, such as the I-pad is brillant. The toy versions of laptops and other educational tools designed strictly for children underestimate children's interest and ability to navigate the "real stuff". My child has no interest in the techy toys I purchased but can't keep his hands off my Smart Phone.
    I look forward to checking out the application and hopefully a more peaceful shopping experience once I have the application downloaded to my phone! Thanks for sharing.
