Press4Kids News for KIDS!! Goody Bag GIVE AWAY!!!
The world is a scary place anymore!! Not just for kids! For adults too!! So, how do you talk to your kids about tragedy? Some parents don’t allow their children to watch the news but, if they interact with other kids, chances are they are still learning about tragedies. Between the Boston Marathon and the Oklahoma City Tornadoes, not to mention scary things that happen near you!! How do you talk to your kids? How do we reassure them? How do you explain what happened? We as parents know, children process these things differently. They may be asking difficult questions and parents may need suggestions to help discuss what happened and address their concerns. You can’t very well send your child to the New York Times to read about it or any other news source, that’s just not an option!! Press4Kids developed News-O-Matic. News-O-Matic (3 free issues on iTunes until June1st!) is an educational news app that covers breaking news, sports, science and much more in an accessible and kid-friendly way. Targeted to kids ages 7-10, News-O-Matic is a week day newspaper application which includes five daily news stories, detailed images, videos, illustrations, maps, timelines and games. P4K’s objective is to inspire a generation of children to become habitual news readers…
