4KidCal App

I was happy to be contacted by Susan Westfried, teacher and developer of the app, 4KidCal, a simple calendar app for kids. Providing 28 stickers and audio recording, 4KidCal allows users to create an event in the calendar without writing. Drag a sticker symbolizing an event to a date, record into the sticker and you have created a visual and audio reminder on the calendar.

4KidCal app, compatible with iPhone and iPad (1.99) is demonstrated here in a quick video of basic features:

Here’s what else you need to know about 4KidCal app, from February 11 – 18th the app is being offered for free!

Although I have more questions about the app, (Can you only put one sticker or recording on a day? How many users can be managed?  Can you customize symbols? Are there syncing abilities? etc.), I can wait until next week to download this app for free. This might just be the ticket for some middle school students that have difficulty with basic organization, writing, reading and home work reminders!

Check back next week for more information on 4KidCal!
