App Review: Mammals

Hey readers,

Today I’m here to tell you about an app that lets you learn about different kinds of mammals!

Mammals is an app that lets you explore how mammals eat, see, run, fly, and more!

The app teaches you about the different bones, fur, heartbeats, whiskers, and other parts of mammals. You can also learn about things that are unique to certain animals. For example, how bats use echolocation (say: eh–kow–low–KEH–shun) to find food in the dark and how elephants use their trunks to drink water and carry objects.

You can download Mammals from the App Store here.

If you try it out, let us know what you think!

App Review: Woolizoo’s Ocean Rescue

Hey readers,

Today I have a fun app to share that’s about rescuing ocean animals called Woolizoo’s Ocean Rescue!

In pretty, crochet-art style, you can help turtles escape nets, clean up rubbish in the ocean, help animal parents find their babies, and so much more. There are four areas in the game world to explore. Each time you complete a task to help the islands, you get a gold star!

You can download the game from the App Store here.

If you try it out, let us know in the comments!

Bye for now,
