Description
Winner of Creative Child Magazines 2012 PREFERRED CHOICE AWARD (Kids Books Category), Dr. Toy 100 Best Children’s Products 2012, Dr. Toy 10 Best High Tech Products for 2012, Academics Choice Smart Media Award, and the Quality Excellence Design (QED) Seal of Approval, The Global Game Changers interactive app, for iPhone and iPad, brings to life the popular children’s book by mother-daughter writing team, Jan Helson & Rachel Annette Helson, and illustrated by Rachel Annette Helson, by engaging kids to Ignite Good!™ and make the world a better place with Global Girl and her sidekick, Little Big Heart.
Along with their trusty dog, Pixel, the superheroes search the globe for real-life kids who do good things for other people without expecting anything in return. This app gives children a chance to fly with Little Big Heart across the globe and battle villain Krumi, who spreads a dark cloud of apathy. Kids also work with the real-life superheroes to Ignite Good!™, and engage with the story to solidify the lessons of giving back in a fun and entertaining way.
Kids are sure to be excited when they hear The Global Game Changers theme song, “Welcome to the Game” by famed musical team, Paul Buckley (composer) and Jack Diamond (vocals) whose credits include work on many award-winning television shows.
This animated app will capture kids’ attention during play, and inspire them to Ignite Good!™ in their day to day lives. Everyone can become a real-life superhero, by being part of The Global Game Changers!
