SOS Children’s Villages in Norway launches app for children aged 4 to 10. The app was made in the TapBookAuthor tool.

The app contains material for kids created by SOS Children’s Villages over the last years. The material was imported into the tool and is presented in a universe where one gets to know children in children’s villages around the world. You will find videos, interactive maps, karaoke songs, free hand drawing functionality in addition to interactive books about Karsten & Petra written by the well-known Norwegian author Tor Åge Bringsværd.

The main purpose of the app is to show Norwegian children that there are children in other parts of the world living very different lives than them. Still, there is hope for a more fair world, if we are willing to help.

The app is available on both iOS and Android devices, links can be found below.
