Looking for a safe and fun way to share the News with your child ages 7-10? I know that I personally don’t like my son to watch news on TV. So, I am excited to learn about an app that is geared towards children ages 7-10. It is available for the iPad or iPad Mini in the Apple App Store and you can try it for free and then pay for a subscription at a reasonable price of  weekly subscription: $1.99 + 1 week free (10 issues), monthly subscription$6.99 a month (22 issues) or $49.99  for a yearly subscription (260 issues). Press4Kids (P4K) launched in MARCH and News-O-Matic is an educational news app that covers breaking news, sports, science and much more in an accessible and kid-friendly way!

News-O-Matic is a week day newspaper application which includes five daily news stories, detailed images, videos, illustrations, maps, timelines and games. P4K’s objective is to inspire a generation of children to become habitual news readers and well-informed global citizens. What I really like is that this app also gives children a voice to express their views. Children can actually interact with the Editor-in-Chief by rating stories, drawing pictures, asking questions or expressing opinions about current topics in the “News Room” section of the app. I would have loved this as a child and it’s great to watch my 9-year-old son enjoying an app that is educational, safe & cool all at the same time! I really find it impressive that it teaches children about the top news stories in a safe educational way. News on TV can simply be too scary.

Created by a skilled team—including child experts, designers and entrepreneurs—News-O-Matic aims to transform the news experience for children in a safe, interactive environment while encouraging them to become knowledgeable, productive members of society.

  2. It’s a wonderful app!

  3. We love this app! Thanks!

  4. The Nokia X3 Red Mobile features a MP3, MP4, e-AAC+,
    WMA car stereo files can be playable about the cell. This business of trading is hard enough
    and we should benefit from every edge in the market that is available to us.
    Possible complications inlcude drug reactions, infection, bleeding, or perforation in the digestive system which could require surgery.

    An eyewitness account from the Independent’s Andrew Buncombe, who was shot while taking refuge with 1,500 ‘red
    shirt’ protesters inside a temple – a supposed safe haven – received jibes to be inside pay of
    Thaksin. Skinny Jeans – This piece will always remain stylish since its flatters all body shapes and sizes.

  6. If you are and a website owner, you may use Google
    trends to increase your internet site traffic too. Then a week ago he declared Martial Law in 15 provinces
    north of Bangkok that are overwhelmingly politically ‘Red Shirt’ in affiliation.
    This epidemic attacked the bodies of the children under the age of five-years old and left their parents grieving in the
    loss of the children.

  7. If something is hot over ‘press’, and on your website, then you can definitely be prior to the competition. When the truth is a news blog or breaking news, you can share it as you watch
    it. How many times will you have a comment to produce after reading a certain part of news but
    nowhere to express your opinion or feelings.
