It’s my goal to raise children who forever see the world as an exciting place where they can always be learning. That means that I am forever on the hunt for new and exciting ways that my children can learn. I love when I am able to find a subject that fits their interest and is also presented in such a fun fashion that they don’t immediately recognize that they are learning.

With the DINO TALES app, available in the App Store, your child can not only enjoy a fun learning experience – but create their own story! “The game combines a fun exploratory world with a beautiful story book to encourage children’s reading, writing, listening and speaking skills.” explains David Miller, award-winning educational expert at Kuato Studios. DINO TALES allows your child to capture their session of play and turn it into a digital storybook.

Aimed at children aged between 4 and 10, DINO TALES is designed to strengthen literacy, reasoning, and inquiry skills – in and beyond the classroom. The game has also been developed alongside pupils and teachers to ensure that language and content are age-appropriate, and that all opportunities for learning have been explored.

Parent Corner

I love this feature within Dino Tales. The Parent Corner is a pin-secure area where you can set your child’s reading age, session length and get email notifications when your child creates a new Dino Tale. It’s great that you can customize it to your child and keep up with their app activity.

What others are saying

Fantastic Reading and Dinosaur fun

The kids set their age the minute the start the game and have fun meeting new dinosaur friends on each new level. What I love particularly is the fact that you have the game- which is fun and entertaining but can touch the bottom right corner to ask random “dinosaur facts”— it’s such a great way for kids to raise their confidence for reading as well as teaches them fun new facts to share . Best new reading app I’ve seen in a long time!! – Jennifer Arcuri
