App Description

Sam and Ben are twins that are positively not like two peas in a pod. They look different, they act differently and when they see the same object their imaginations take off in different directions. But no matter how similar or different Sam and Ben are, the message of the story is clear- they are uniquely special and loved. This app transforms the book published by Pinwheel Books into an interactive, animated experience full of playful activities for little ones. Sam and Ben’s world comes to life with a simple touch of a finger: kids can create their own symphony by touching all of Sam and Ben’s instruments, or they can play with Sam and Ben’s toys by dragging them around the screen. Children can read the app by themselves, or hear it narrated to them. Enjoy activities that include coloring in the twins or dragging an object through a riddling maze. The app also has a matching game and a doodle pad where kids can create their very own illustrations.
