{FREEBIE} Kindoma Story Time Video Chat Directions for Parents


Have you ever used the free app, Kindoma, to read to a child or YOUR child when you are away? I love the "FaceTime"/"Skype" concept that combines visual text! If you are not familiar with Kindoma then here are a few facts:

-You can now share bedtime stories from any location
-Read over 250 books with the same page appearing on each users screen (Note: the free app comes with 6 FREE books! Others have to be purchased)
-Point to words/pictures on the page and the other user can see what you are pointing to

It is pretty cool!
