Story Bug is perfect for parents who travel for work, grandparents who live far away from their grandchildren or other family members who want to share storytime when they’re apart.

How Story Bug, powered by Kindoma, works:
While you are together in a call or next to each other, the book selections and page turns are synchronized on both sides. You can point to things on the page and the other side can see where you are pointing. Use this feature to highlight words as you read, or ask questions and have the children point to things on the page.
