Mother Goose Club: Kids & Baby Video, Books and Games
© 2017 StoryToys
Short videos are mixed with stories and simple games, with this subscription-based app that makes it possible to watch videos offline. New content is added each month to keep things fresh. The videos come from the Mother Goose Club YouTube channel; the games from StoryToys. Games are limited to tried-and-true theme-based games like concentration, jigsaw puzzles and pattern completion puzzles -- nothing innovative, although the games do support multi-touch. The app is available for download for iOS and Android and is free to try with sample content. The subscription price could vary -- the introduction price is $1.99/month (or $20/year) for a monthly subscription. The heart of this club is the videos, which come from Sona and Harry Jho of Sockeye Media, who have a popular (6 million subscriber as of April 2017) YouTube channel. The app brings this content to your mobile device, serving curated theme-based playlists based around school subject themes like reading, math, science and so on.
