Tribal Nova to Add Nelvana's ‘Max & Ruby’ to Series of Exciting New Science Apps Teaching Kids About Materials and Motion
Montreal, Canada (PRWEB) November 29, 2013 -- Tribal Nova, a Houghton Mifflin Harcourt company, and the developer of the award winning PBS KIDS PLAY! online learning program, today announces that its latest educational gaming app - Max & Ruby science educational games - is now available in the App Store. An important addition to its award winning i Learn With suite of early childhood educational apps, the Max & Ruby app for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch, teaches children about coordination and motion, and introduces them to the properties of objects, materials and liquids in a way that is truly fun and educational.
The new science app features Max & Ruby, the hilarious bunny siblings from Nelvana’s much loved animated series, which airs on Nickelodeon in the U.S. and is based on the books by internationally acclaimed author Rosemary Wells. Here, Max and his older sister Ruby can be seen in three different games, having fun as they learn about shapes, the properties of objects and the effect of water in its different states. The third game will allow children to realize their creativity by creating their own Max & Ruby world, while playing with characters from the series.
“Max & Ruby science educational games is very dear to us, not only because of the amazing characters but because it explores new subjects and teaches kids innovative and important real-life concepts like inertia, weight, speed and water states,” said Pierre Le Lann, Co-Manager of Tribal Nova. “We hope that after playing with the app, children will want to try their new knowledge out in the real world.”
Max & Ruby science educational games is available for free from the App Store at http://www.AppStore.com. A single purchase of $2.99, will unlock over 40 new levels. The app is available in both English and French.
The i Learn With app series is a curriculum-oriented, game-based school readiness program for children ages 3 to 6. Based on National Standards and designed with the help of teachers and developmental experts, this suite of educational apps includes games that teach math, language, literacy, healthy development and more. The program adjusts the level of difficulty for each child, recommends personalized learning paths and integrates highly engaging rewards for educational achievements.
All apps from the i Learn With series are available on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and provide tracking across multiple iOS devices. Children can start playing on an iPad, for example, and later continue playing on their parent’s iPhone at the same level where they left off, without losing any of their progress or rewards.
