Wake Up Mo! ~ 3D Interactive Pop-Up Book

An imaginative and highly animated app kids will love!

Wake Up Mo!, from StoryToys, is the perfect way to have your children get off to a good start in the morning. This app supports four different languages including English, French, German and Spanish. Wake Up Mo! offers the option to have music on or off, as well as read to me, and the more advanced feature of read myself. There is also a parent area for further options.

I absolutely love the narrator, with his deep rich voice. There are many places to touch on the page for surprise animations. Wake Up Mo! has the unique look of a cardboard toddler book, but in 3-D.

Help Mo get dressed after breakfast and you will be laughing at the snoring sound of the mouse. The clock in the background and can also be used for learning. The book is told in rhyme which can be difficult to find in an app. Something also unique to this app is when it is done, it turns itself to start over again. Wake up Mo will have you reading and laughing many times. Get your copy in the app store now.

Story Synopsis - Wake Up Mo! ~ 3D Interactive Pop-Up Book

Wake Up Mo! is a morning routine app for tablets and mobile phones. It is the follow-up to the best-selling bedtime app Goodnight Mo (#1 in US and 40 other countries worldwide). As the sun rises and a new day begins, Mo, a cute little monster, gets ready for school. Beautiful imagery, gently rhyming narration, and a cheerful soundtrack make this the perfect way for little ones to learn how to get ready for the day ahead.

Wake Up Mo! helps young children build a routine by completing tasks in the same order each morning, such as eating breakfast, getting dressed, brushing teeth and packing a bag. It's fun too: little ones will discover charming surprises
in each of the 3D pop-up scenes: whether waking up Mo and the other animals, helping Mo get dressed, catapulting toast onto Teddy's plate, or brushing messy ‘morning hair’.

Wake Up Mo! is part of the StoryToys Junior line. Designed for young children aged 15 months to 3+ years old, it includes the following features:

• Full 3D experience - it’s just like a real book
• 8 enchanting 3D pop-up scenes packed with simple animations and interactive elements
• Read to Me or Read it Myself modes
• Available in English, French, German and Spanish
• Fully narrated in each language by professional actors
• Wonderfully illustrated, with beautiful, colorful imagery
• Featuring a charming musical score and playful sound effects
