I would anticipate that the app would be very difficult to use within a class setting, due to the fact that it would be very hard to anticipate the reaction of a large group of children, and also because teachers on the whole will not have an in-depth enough knowledge of their students to know whether the app is aimed appropriately for each child. Whilst it is to the app’s credit that it deals with the whole topic in an entirely honest and accurate way, I think that this delivery may not be sensitive enough to meet the needs of all children, particularly within the 5-8 age range. The developers bill this as an app for 5 to 12 year olds, but I find it unlikely that there are many children towards the lower end of this age range who would be mature enough to cope with the level of detail and thoroughness of content within the app - especially the detailed anatomical vocabulary and illustrations. Once the story has been completed, users can start again from the beginning or explore a small section of extra material, which covers additional topics such as surrogacy and adoption.ĭespite all the very strong points mentioned above, I would suggest that this app is used with a degree of caution. The interactive parts of the story relate well to the learning objectives at any given point throughout. Interactive elements are easy to navigate and the flow through the story and different activities is simply structured and well-paced. The sound effects and narration are also very clear and professional. In terms of delivery, this app is extremely polished, with some very well-designed graphics and animation. The story is presented from the point of view of a child called Clementine, who is expecting a new sibling and has lots of questions. The app presents a large amount of information on the topic in the form of an interactive animated e-book - with plenty of opportunities to explore the topic from different angles, including relevant biological details and some discussion of the emotional impact. Starting to discuss the question “where do babies come from?” is often a big milestone for children, and this app provides a structure for starting to deal with the question.
