Storytime . . . Anytime!
Ok, this has got to be not only the coolest thing Suzy has found in a while but you can thank her later as it could be the biggest lifesaver this summer for your family ROADTRIPS!!!






It's called Tales2Go and it's an iPhone/iTouch app that gives you instant access to over a thousand great kids' audio stories right into your phone!  You can play it over the car speakers or pass the pass it to the backseat to the kids or listen anywhere, anytime!  

Besides the obvious reasons that Suzy loves this service (i.e. brilliant idea, sparking kids imaginations, less Miley Cyrus/Sesame in the car....) she also has has found that entrepreneurial parent-owners Tracy Weil and her husband are truly wonderful people whose inspiration came from their children and their love of books.  Seeing how that took that passion and made it into something that can enhance all of our lives - now that's what it's all about, people!

The Tales2Go collection now includes over 1000 titles that range from classics like "The Boxcar Children" (one of Suzy's absolute favorites!) and "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" to new favorites like Junie B. Jones and the American Girl series (the Little Suzy's loves these!).  Oh, and did I mention that the app is free and after a 30-day trial of the service you pay only $24.99 for an entire year?  Suzy has paid more than that for just one book on CD!

For more information on Tales2Go you can check out their website at www.tales2go.com or their Facebook Page (where you can find out details about a cool contest they are holding).
