Pocket Penguins by California Academy of Sciences.
2011. Version 1.0. Free
For every kid (and adult) who has ever wanted to
carry a penguin exhibit around in their pocket, now there’s Pocket Penguins, an
app by the California Academy of Sciences that provides a real-time view of their
African penguin exhibit. The app lets
you switch between above ground and underwater cameras as you watch the
penguins swim, dive, eat and play. It’s
a great educational app that will entertain a wide age-range. The app is free but a Wi-Fi is needed and
data rates may apply. Still, it’s a
great way to add to what students are learning in school or just to pique a
child’s interest in the natural world.
