Musicals and Fairytales

We have a new app on iPad, which allows to create and record fairytales. Katherine can paste any number of characters and objects on a chosen background and then sing/tell a story while moving the characters with her fingers. Here is our full journey so far. I started by showing her how it's done: Then we picked up the story and she grasped the concept amazingly quickly! Princess shows her room, bags, ribbons and crowns Then they go on the ship on the way to a ball: But end up at a dinner party: We then leave that topic and develop many side stories: Note that the king wasnt sure whose papa he is and the prince was swapped for another one, called Aimo :) But than we figured out who the papa was, changed into a ballerina and got a new pet - frog! and a granny!

End of January and February is the carnival time around here! In our village there was one for just kids and they had lots of entertainment as well as prizes for best costume. The topic was "Weltreise" (World Travel" and Katherine went in the Ukrainian national costume. She got third prize in the singles category which was the largest one by far!
