Moment Garden Tip: Draw and Tell App (iPad and iPhone)

One (of the many!) fun things to save in your Moment Garden is your kids’ artwork.  

Is your child the next Picasso?  Monet? What do you do when you can’t see your fridge under all your kids’ artwork?  Whether you stash it away in a box or reluctantly recycle it, first take a picture and email it to your Moment Garden!

With technology growing as fast as your kids, some amazing apps are starting to evolve and serve as fun outlets for kids to express their creativity.  Our favorite iPad app for this is called Draw and Tell, made by Duck Duck Moose.

This app has the typical drawing tools you would expect (and more), however the reason this drawing app stands out is that your child can record and narrate his or her drawings!  Your little kiddos can make fun videos like this:



Oh, but it gets better.  You can even animate your drawings while you are narrating them!

Do you know where this is going?  Yep, you can then save these images and videos to your photo gallery and upload them to Moment Garden from our App!  Your family and friends will LOVE THEM and you’ll sleep well knowing these precious moments are safe and backed up.  Just think of what your child will say when they watch this later in life.

Duck Duck Moose is a pretty cool company, too.  The founders are parents, and have a long track record of creating successful educational children’s applications for the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Android.  I was fortunate to meet Caroline, and am impressed by how much this small, self-funded company has accomplished.


This is the second product we have written about that works great with Moment Garden!  If you missed the last post, check out See Baby Grow T-shirts.
