MACARONI READS & REVIEWS OLAF WANTS A BIRTHDAY

A Book With An App From Incredebooks and Disney Imagicademy

Do you want more out of story time??? This week we checked out “Connected storybooks”  from Incredebooks and Disney Imagicademy with the storybook, "Olaf Wants a Birthday". 

In Olaf Wants a Birthday, the loveable Disney snowman discovers all the fun things that he could do if he celebrated birthdays like his friends Elsa and Anna. He imagines skating parties, games of tag, birthday flowers, walks with friends, songs and even a day at the beach. In the end, he decides he likes birthdays so much that he wants one every day. 
 
In this book, which looks just like a book you would get at the library, the graphics are really beautiful and the words are rhyming but the storytelling experience is enhanced digitally with an app we installed on our iPad.
 
With this app you can:
  • Take a photo with Olaf 
  • Change viewpoints by zooming in and out — and rotating the 3D story scenes 360 degrees 
  • Explore four digital experiences reinforcing early language skills 
  • Tap objects to trigger animations and funny rhymes
  • Engage in playful rhyming games and activities
HOW IT WORKS
