Rockerbox News Reviews
Brilliant App
I have been using this App a while now and I love the way that you can personalise it to suit individual interests. Would be great to use in a classroom environment or at home with the children. I work in Education and think this would be a great tool for many schools to use. I also think the ability to use the voice option is great and therefore can reach audiences that have visual impairments or other learning needs. I’m learning new things each day !
Really educational and easy to use
This is such a great App. Incredibly educational and so easy to use. An instant hit in our family!
Great for curious little minds
What a great app. Interesting news stories that are easy to digest for kids and spark curiosity. I’ve also learnt a lot myself too, so it’s not just great for the children!!
Brilliant
Easy to navigate and really interesting content. Definitely not just for children. Makes learning fun, just as it should be.
I love using this app!
I’m piloting this app and I think that we will keep using it for a while! It’s really fun and you can customise your account with little pictures. Also there are five new stories added everyday! One thing is that I find that the five stories a day isn’t really enough to last very long because they aren’t all that long. Overall, I think it’s a great platform to learn with!
Great educational tool
I love this app! It’s a great way to get the kids reading non fiction. We love discussing the stories a round the dinner table 😁
Amazing
Love the personalisation for each child! So easy and friendly to use. What a fantastic app!!!!
