iphone x Picture Book

Hi all,

We have just stumbled across this really nice simple integration

of an iPhone applications and a regualar kids book.

This video shows how, by slipping an iPhone into the center of a

specially designed picture book the child's experience is enhanced and

they are able to interact with the story and its characters.

I personally like the challenge to avoid planets and asteroids in the

spaceship.

If anyone has used this app to play with their children or have any ideas we would really like

to hear about how you think this could be applied or improved...

Post you and your kids ideas on our Facebook discussion page which can

be found here:

Teenage drinking - help resources for parents

Teenagers are often given bad press and images of hooded teens charged on alcopops are a common sight in the media. This is definitely not representational of today's youth but there's no question that there are issues around teenage drinking. Some recent research by Drinkaware highlights some reavealing statistics:

• 63% of 16-17 year olds who drink alcohol admit they do so most frequently in their own home
• Almost half of young people (47%*) drink alcohol at least once a week with 60% seeing this as a normal part of socialising and being young
  

The fact that drinking takes place at home means that parents have a greater role in these issues then some might imagine. In response to their findings Drinkaware have launched a new section on their website specifically aimed at parents.

www.drinkaware.co.uk/parents offers tips for how parents can broach the issue of alcohol with young people, when it’s a good time to talk to your kids and safety measures that can be put in place if your child is drinking. Details about legislation and government advice can also be found on the site as well as a directory of other useful resources.

Here at Dads Space we're all about parenting in its many forms. So, supporting a strong minded and independent single mother is second nature to us (even if she is part-machine - no one's perfect ;)). We're big fans of her maternal instincts.
