Storypie: Audio Learning

Great for both my kids (ages 2 and 3)… especially when we’re traveling and don’t have any physical books with us.

As we read stories to our nieces and nephews, we were looking for variety since the same books are chosen night over night. Just heard about this app through some friends and it’s been a great change of pace. Inserting the kids in the story makes it interactive and we can test their listening skills at the end. Excited for future updates to enhance the bedtime experience.

I really like the way this app lets you filter for the type of book you’re looking for. It has a little bit of everything. It also has discussion questions you can talk to your kids about. The stories can be long and entertaining or short and sweet. The only thing I’m hoping for is simple options. Things that aren’t too overstimulating before bedtime. I also think it’s aimed toward kids 3+. It’s a little hard to use for kids younger than 3. There’s also a downside to ebooks; they don’t have any pictures. That’s one thing kids always look forward to most. It helps them learn visually and better understand the story. The app does allow you to add your kid into the stories which can be exciting and interactive for young kids. It also allows you to customize the story lines based on your kids interests. That’s a great feature. I also like that audiobook is available for listening. I could see myself using that in the car. Overall I enjoy this app and think it would be great to use for kids ages 3+. It would give more variety than just our plain old story books we read over and over again. It also encourages discussion, learning and engagement for my kids.
