With the new Augmented Reality app your students will be able to:
- Watch Hebrew letter introductions
- Touch the Hebrew letter to hear it's name
- Touch the object to hear the Hebrew word for it
- Recieve instant feedback with sounds and augmented images
- Play activities by touching letters, finding Jewish objects, or dragging virtual elements
Download Augmented Reality now to enhance your preschool Hebrew curriculum by stimulating and engaging kids like never before.
Unlimited Alef Bet
Want a fun way for your child to successfully learn to decode the Alef Bet? Unlimited Alef Bet introduces young children to Hebrew letters and simple words with talking animated words. Available for iPad, iPhone, and Android, children will begin to associate the sound with the letter and the words it helps to build.
Unlimited Alef Bet was designed with younger children in mind - there are no high scores, failures, limits, or stress. Your child can interact with the app at his or her own pace today!
Kol Yisrael: Batya's Bubbles and Blessings App
Play, listen, and record eight blessings and prayers from Kol Yisrael volumes 1, 2, and 3 through an interactive game.
Batya's Bubbles and Blessings supports your use of the Kol Yisrael Hebrew program to practice prayer reading skills and to review the prayers from all three volumes of Kol Yisrael.
Kids and adults are able to record themselves while reading, chanting, or singing the prayers and blessings and have the option to email the recordings to anyone. The recorded files can even be played on iTunes. Download Batya's Bubbles and Blessings for FREE now!
Shabbat Interactive
Although this is not an app, Shabbat Interactive provides the keys to independent discovery through the Online Learning Center that children need.
This digital experience for children 6-11 helps make meaning of all the elements of this weekly holiday that is a core element of Jewish identity.
Shabbat Interactive is a nine-module interactive experience that lets children discover Shabbat by creating a digital book to show each day of Creation.
Originally priced at $9.99, you can download Shabbat Interactive for free here.
Hebrew Karaoke
Watch the Alef Bet letters dance in the Hebrew Karaoke app on your iPad and iPhone! Once you have learned the new Alef Bet song, switch to karaoke mode and sing along with Mama Doni and her band or perform solo with the band as your back up!
Record your performance and email your recording to friends and family or share your emailed version on Facebook or in the Online Learning Center.

Noisemaker Gragger (Our Purim Pick!)
Use your iPhone to participate in a customary Jewish megillah reading experience using a noisemaker, or gragger, to drown out Haman's name.
Noisemaker Gragger is pre-loaded with fun sounds and you can even record your own sounds to play when you hear Haman's name. Like a traditional gragger, just spin it around above your head to make noise.
Your students can download their own noisemaker gragger for free here.
