Story Time with Laura’s Journey to the Stars

Story Time – Laura’s Journey to the Stars

Just recently I have vowed to take the time to sit down everyday and read with my younger girls. Since then I have struggled keeping my four year olds attention, either cause of the story line or her involvement in the story. So this week I am trying the Laura’s Journey to the Stars app by Bastei Entertainment.

Joeli, my 4 yer old, loves her iPad, and knows how to use it well. So when we sit down, she goes straight to the Laura’s Journey to the Stars app and normally starts from the beginning of the story, even though she can pick up where she left off last. But, she enjoys the many animated scenes, and interactions on each of the pages. Joeli loves taking her time looking over the beautifully drawn illustrations by children’s book illustrator Klaus Baumgart. Each one of the pages seem to just come alive with movement and sounds appropriate of what is going on the page.
