B&N Free Friday Apps

8/9/13 Today’s app is Savannah Adventures! Fun Math educational games for kids: Numbers, Counting & Addition.

Each challenge teaches a new skill and features a different Savannah animal, but my kids were immediately drawn to the ostrich level, where they had to load and unload the giant flightless birds into a truck until it had exactly 20 ostriches. They’ve always been charmed by the antics of the comical ostrich at our local zoo, so this game was the perfect way to build their addition and subtraction skills while having a great time.

You can even test your skills against current PBA greats like Walter Ray Williams Jr., and track your scores against the live worldwide leader board. And with the chance to design your own bowling ball, you can create a custom-made weapon that will bring you unprecedented glory on the lanes.

Although PrintHand Mobile Print Premium is only available for the NOOK HD and HD+, I was still able to "Buy" it. I've been very happy with both my Nooks and, if anything happens to them, I'd be tempted to replace it with one of the newer ones at the new low prices. If that happens, I'll have the app for free. If not, it didn't cost me anything.

After all, everyone's gotta eat, even if their heart doesn't beat!
