APPS FOR KIDS:
And So You Were Born- a storybook where children learn of the great love that exists for them—from God’s love before and after birth, to love of family and friends—and about the purpose of giving that love in return, and spreading it to all others as we unite in our diversities. What makes it unique is the ability to personalize it for your child, the ability for the reader to insert their drawing onto a page, the interaction on each page as the child touch parts of the picture and the additional games that come with it.
