Recently I had the opportunity to review a very cool app for kids called BibliQuiz. It is a Bible trivia type game geared towards kids. As a homeschool mom, I am always on the lookout for an educational tool for my kids. This is a GREAT app for homeschoolers. It is challenging, fun, and sure to help your kids learn many facts from the Bible. What I really like about the BibliQuiz app is the simplicity. I mean there are so many apps geared towards kids out there that are so complicated just to get to the actual KID portion of the app, I wonder if the creators really think it through. However, with BibliQuiz, I can give my daughter the ipad and she has no problem getting to the game and playing. I also like that it teaches kids about the Bible. They are not only asked trivia questions, they are also given facts about said question. For instance, if they get a question correct, many times, there is "more info" about the topic.

Not only does the child care for the animals but has to train zoo keepers, hire maintenance workers, add decor, put up stands (and make sure they are a profit and not a loss). Zoopedia gives an in-depth look at each animal as well as their … [Read more...]
Game Review – Roller Coaster tycoon 3 Platinum
Product Name: Roller Coaster tycoon 3 Platinum (it has 3 amusement parks; roller coaster tycoon 3, soaked, and wild.) Submitted by: Lara Velez; FL Rating: 8 Where to buy: CompUSA Description: Computer Game Review: Once my husband and I actually got it installed it is a blast! There are so many things you can do! It has challenges, custom events, a no limits option, and more. You can make a regular amusement park, a zoo, a water park, or a combination…oh, and making coasters is COOL! It is very user friendly and great for the whole family. It is rated “E” for everyone. I think it’s a great gift for a teenager as well. It teaches them about money management and problem solving skills…especially the challenges. I would recommend the game to anyone. And, go ahead and pay the extra few dollars to get the two additional parks…it makes for more excitement and adventures! Cons: Unfortunately, there is one big con. We almost gave up. … [Read more...]
