<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Oxford University’s “Rabbit’s House” has been released for the iPad! We had a wonderful time animating and developing it. (One of our favorite things to do!) =)</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Rabbit’s House is a storybook language development app brought to you by Oxford, especially designed for very young children learning to read, as well as ESL students.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Kids can allow the app read the story to them, or they just read the story by themselves. They can even choose to use a word highlighting feature, so when an individual word is tapped, it is read out loud by the narrator. Additional phonics words are included with an icon to add visual connection to the word. Additionally, there’s a Quiz section in the app to help your kids practice letter sounds and phonics words included in the story! </span></span><span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The art is cute and colorful with some little animations to entertain.</span><br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Check it out! You can find it in the <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id716673507" target="_blank">iTunes Store, here</a>.</span></span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="color: #595959;">YoMagination and Robots and Cupcakes has finally gotten the green light to release an introductory story app based on the YoPoweR! printed curriculum:</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="color: #595959;"><br /></span></span></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="color: #595959;">This is</span> <a href="http://www.yomagination.com/" target="_blank">YoMagination's</a><span style="color: #595959;"> very first <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kids-yopower!-journey/id633659862?mt=8" target="_blank">iPad app</a>, which introduces the Island of YoMagination and the characters that live there. The app is a WONDERFULLY positive story with a warm, calming voice that walks kids through how to recognize anxiety and stress, how to focus and breathe in order to take control and manage their emotions. "That's YoPoweR!"</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><span style="color: #595959;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">There are two activities within the story that also introduce and visually explain the negative and stressful feelings (called Ooglily Booglies) and the positive, energizing feelings (Tiggly Wigglies). Kids learn they can replace negative feelings with positive ones when they focus and breathe, the YoPoweR! way! There are even shortcuts on the Main app page that can take kids directly to those activities in times of need. (We think EVERYONE can benefit from this app!!!)</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The music (performed and produced by our friend Rob Warren of Rob Warren Music), and illustrations (by our very own "Mixed-Up Wacky Zoo" and "A.J.'s Big Adventure!" artist Phil Jones), brings full life to this delightfully written, rhyming story lesson by <b>Heather Quillen</b>, founder of YoMagination.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">We also like to add that we especially (and wholeheartedly!) believe in the YoPoweR! curriculum. The programs have already been integrated into current classroom systems, as well as after school programs and camp activities. In addition, Heather Quillen has traveled to troubled schools in poor neighborhoods to teach YoPoweR! classes to teachers and troubled kids, bringing benefits to many who may need it most! We've seen video and photos of these events. It’s AMAZING how the kids respond!!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">We’ve been working hard on so many large programs this year– and you can find two of them being shown off at this year’s International Reading Association Convention in Texas (April 19-22)! If you're attending, be sure to check out these fine products...</span><br />

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">We created the ISIL animations and digital story sort games that are being sold on DVD for classrooms- and what a GREAT TIME we had doing it! You should be able to get a sneak peek of a few of them there… Also check out the ISIL animated product commercial we created for them, which should be running at the booth as well.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Robots and Cupcakes has just completed 8 animations and 16 digital games for Pearson's <a href="http://www.stuartjmurphy.com/iseeilearn/" target="_blank">“I See I Learn” book series by Stuart J. Murphy</a>! They’ll be available on DVD for classrooms, along with digital versions of Stuart’s 16 main storybooks.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">The animations are supplemental stories to the main storybooks; After the kids read the stories, the animations have a similar storyline that refer back to the icons, graphs, and lessons learned in the books. R&C handled the storyboarding, art direction, music and voiceovers, animations and video production.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">R&C additionally built 16 “Story Sort” digital games in HTML which are played from the DVD, one game for each of Stuart’s books. The children pull the images from each of the stories from memory into the correct order. Lots of sounds and rewards with wonderful design!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Haaaappy Birthdaaaay, dear Teeeaaaaammmmm…..</span><br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">What a family we've grown into! We have a triple-threat production team, we have designers and animators singing together in harmony, and a development team that never seems to flinch. The year brought us tons of growth in new and exciting areas (just when we thought we had covered them all!), and technology in education is finally beginning to take more of a solid shape. Publishers are gaining more experience as they stick with a small, but strong handful of technologies, and they're growing bolder in how far out they want to push their products to make them different. Competition is stiffer than ever, and uber-creativity has been the key!</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #595959; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">That's where the team at Robots and Cupcakes has been at it's best. Thinking from outside education and bringing it in, and applying and defining new ways of thinking to the educational market. Developing, designing and adding different ways to interact. Pushing the limits of seamless code to cover any digital platform. Building activities in new and creative ways that still stay true to the standards of education. ...And the positive responses and praise we've received makes us even more excited about reaching further!</span></span><br />

Aaand, we're BACK!<br />
<br />
We've been very busy bees with large projects, both print and digital– as well as some miscellaneous voiceover and animation projects! It's been a wonderful year so far...<br />
<br />
And to add the icing on the cupcake, our next original interactive book is schedule to release by fall this year: <b>AJ's Big Adventure!</b><br />
<br />
We're so, SO excited about this book. The story is written and illustrated by Phil Jones (see <a href="http://philjonesillustration.com/" target="_blank">Phil Jones Illustration</a>), who also did all of the art for our recent iPad app, "<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-mixed-up-wacky-zoo/id412736553?mt=8" target="_blank">The Mixed-Up Wacky Zoo</a>".<br />
<br />
<i>AJ's Big Adventure</i> is about a little boy and his furry friends who create a hot air balloon out of a laundry basket and found materials and embark on a big adventure! The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and the scenes are filled with so many creative little details to discover, we can't wait to get it into your hands!<br />
<br />
This time, we're building the book in iBooks Author, also using HTML5 and Javascript for added animation and lots of surprises. The music will of course be done by the infamous Rick Hinkle, who will be pumping in the last of the magic into the story...if it will fit!<br />
