Parents who find themselves traveling a lot for work will love the Kindoma app. This app lets you read bedtime stories to your child using your iPad. The app essentially combines e-books and video chatting into one slick package. When a call is started using the app, both the child and the adult are taken to a virtual bookstore. In the store are 26 popular titles that can be read.
Once a book is chosen, the pages appear onscreen alongside the video images. Pages can be turned by both the child and the parent, and a special indicator pops up whenever one party is pointing at a word. The Kindoma app is available now and sells for the kid-friendly price of free.
