Post this

Seattle, Washington (PRWEB) June 15, 2016 -- June 14, 2016 — Van Winkle Studio announces the release of Pillow Mountain, their newest interactive app for kids, available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Pillow Mountain gently helps children face their bedtime fears as they take a mysterious and unexpected journey with Nolan. Readers join Nolan as he nods off to a breathtaking dreamworld where he encounters frightful and shadowy creatures. When faced with little choice, he must confront the spooky monsters, only to find that there is nothing to fear. Pillow Mountain playfully opens the door for parents to discuss the important topic of fear and nightmares with their children. Nolan's dreamworld is loaded with whimsical scenes that include fun, interactive animations that kids will want to play over and over again. This app contains no in-app purchases, no external links, no ads, and is a safe environment that parents can trust.

This thrilling story is the original creation of VWS Creative Director, Ian Van Winkle. It has received positive reviews from multiple top-rated app review sites. Smart Apps for Kids gives it a 4.5 star rating and names it their “New Top Pick”. The iPhone Mom gives it a 5-star rating saying, “I truly loved this story.”, and The iMums gives it a 4 star rating adding that Pillow Mountain is “a great storybook to share with your children.”

Pillow Mountain takes you into the mysterious, yet beautiful world of Nolan's dream. As he treks through the wilderness searching for a way back to his bed, users can interact with all sorts of cute critters and spooky creatures. Children can choose to enjoy read-to-me mode, or parents can join in the fun and read the story aloud. Pillow Mountain is the ideal blend of mystery, adventure, and bravery that kids will love. As always with VWS products, this app brings families a wholesome, interactive, and educational experience.

Van Winkle Studio is a family-owned, indie app development company founded by Alan “Rip Sr.” Van Winkle and his son Ian “Rip Jr.” Van Winkle. Rip Sr. left the corporate world with 30+ years of software engineering experience and was joined by Rip Jr. after he earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design. It is this brilliant combination of sophisticated software engineering, visionary story-telling, and a passion for creative design that brings a new kind of educational, interactive, and engaging entertainment to children of all ages. For more information please contact Brianna Van Winkle.

Pillow Mountain is available for $.99 on the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pillow-mountain/id1109500001?mt=8
