The past year has certainly been challenging for all of us. For parents with young kids, it has been all the more difficult as they face the added challenge of keeping their child busy at home.

Screentime is something that all of us have resorted to especially given the current times – but finding the right type of screen time with educational content can be so overwhelming because of all the options that are available

Although I am not against screentime, I certainly do NOT play mindless videos with zero to no value for my little one. I always try to search for meaningful and educational content online.

One of my toddler’s favorite activities is reading out books for him. So when I recently came across Vooks App which is the first storybook streaming service for kids, I was absolutely thrilled and decided to give it a try.

Why we Love Vooks

All the stories in the app are narrated in a very beautiful and clear manner with creative animations. I absolutely love the fact that the stories can be streamed ad-free. This means I do not have to worry about any unnecessary or inappropriate ads or pop-ups.

 I can see a spark in my little one’s eyes when he sees some of his favorite storybooks come to life.

My toddler is at the age where he loves hearing and repeating new words. Thanks to this app, I have already started seeing such a huge difference and his vocabulary has increased so much!

One of the best parts is that it has stories that are categorized as per age – preschool, elementary, etc. That way you don’t end up wasting time scrolling through endless stories and accidentally selecting stories that may be a little too advanced or way too easy for your child.

They also have stories categorized as per animals, seasons, bedtime, and so on – a feature that is so convenient and fun to use.

You even have an option to download the stories and watch them whenever and wherever you want. I can also cast the stories right on my TV for my little one to enjoy.

Interactive Storytime with Vooks –

Their interactive stories are our most loved ones. One of my son’s favorite stories called ‘Safari Animals’ is an interactive story and tells you to guess the names of all the animals – he loves it so much and tells me to play the story again and again.

I have added this and several other stories to my favorite list so I can easily access it instead of having to search for it.
