Sesame Street Now On PlayTales Gold {GIVEAWAY}


Today's Back-to-School Fiesta! giveaway is from PlayTales Gold. This app provides unlimited interactive storybooks and activities for kids ages 1 to 10. The stories are designed to help children learn new vocabulary, spelling, numbers, word pronunciation, and more. You can purchase a monthly, semi-annual, or annual subscription to PlayTales Gold, which gives your family unlimited access to interactive books, games, drawing activities, and sing-along songs (English & Spanish), for the duration of the subscription. The app also features universal subscription so users can access PlayTales Gold from their iPhone and iPad using the same iTunes account. You just select a book and download it to your bookshelf so that your child can enjoy it at any time.

My son, who is 7, really likes the interactive element of the storybooks. Knowing he can manipulate the images and make them move is really fun for him. I like the fact that I can choose whether he reads it on his own (to me), or listens to the book being read to him using the audio option. I can use this as reading practice while we homeschool, and he enjoys the digital aspect of it.

One of the neat features of this app is that users can choose from 8 languages to read/hear the books, including, English, Spanish (Castellano, Catalan, & Latino!!), French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese (Mandarin), and Japanese.

Today, PlayTale Gold is announcing a new partnership with Sesame Street, and is offering new storybooks by Sesame Street in four languages, including Barrio Sésamo (in Castellano Spanish) and Plaza Sésamo (in "Latino" Spanish).

TEN (10!) MommyMaestra readers will win 1 month of PlayTales Gold, which provides unlimited access to ALL books, songs, and games for 30 days.
