20121012-162237.jpg

October 12, 2012 – React-IN announces the release of Beck and Bo, a fun educational app for little kids, available for iOS and Android. Kids are invited to build beautiful, animated scenes by identifying characters, objects and animals and matching them to the environments. They are actively involved in the amazing adventures of Beck and Bo while bringing to life colorful, fascinating scenes, full of sounds, animations and fun interactive activities.

There are 12 different, high-quality scenes to explore and interact with, each one featuring a unique environment with relevant activities. Kids will love going on safari, building a snowman, getting fruits from the grocery store, putting the dog on the trampoline, watering the flowers in the backyard, controlling the traffic in the city center and discovering all the interactive objects within a scene.

The game is a combination of free play and puzzle. Each scene is gradually built as kids use both their logic and imagination to place objects and animals in the environment. At the same time they listen to their names and sounds, engaging in a fun auditory and visual learning experience. After a scene is complete, kids are rewarded by gaining access to the scene’s unique interactive album, where they can browse through the scene’s objects, listen to their names and sounds and see how these words are spelled.
