The title of this app explains it perfectly - you wash a plane. Plane Wash from Happy Touch Apps (FREE iOS) My First Airplane Ride by Patricia Hubbell, illustrated by Nancy Speir When you get to the last verse of the song, just add five new planes to the screen. When it was time for one of the planes to touch down, I just tapped on the trash can for the board, then on one of the planes so it would “zoom” away. When we sang about them flying around I used my fingers to touch the screen and move the planes gently. I started with five airplanes on a blue background. There were not little airplanes flying around Leaving 4 little airplanes flying around. I used felt board to do the song/rhyme “Five Little Airplanes” I found from pattyshukla on YouTube.

Based on the print book, it translates beautifully into a vibrant app. This book is what made me want to do a plane storytime. Planes by Byron Barton from Oceanhouse Media ($1.99, iOS)
I learned about this app at “Explore, Play and Imagine: Interactive Tech Time in Kids Library Programming” a presentation at ALA 2015 by staff from the Carnegie Library of Pittsburg. It’s a fun way to build shape recognition and puzzle solving skills. Build and Play 3D is an app that includes a bunch of different toys (trucks, airplanes, robots, etc) and then you “assemble” the parts of the toy by touching and dragging on your tablet. I just showed a few different pictures from the app, and then played a short video clip.īuild and Play 3D from Croco Studio ($2.99 iOS, Android, Samsung app)īefore we read stories about planes, I thought we should build our own. I wanted to use this as a started for what the theme of storytime was going to be. This simple app, part of the 100 things series, shows lots of pictures and has videos of all types of planes. In the midst of Summer, with everyone taking vacations, I thought it would be fun to feature airplanes in today’s eStorytime!ġ00 Planes from Michael Krynski ($2.99 iOS)
