We're all looking for a million things for our kids to do — both educational activities [1] and things that will get them moving [2] — while we're stuck at home. One of the most fun ways to get our kids' imaginations boosted is through books, whether they're listening to or reading a book and imagining the story or are using their creative energies to come up with their own tales.

Add a literacy and reading component to your temporary homeschooling schedule [3] with storytelling apps that will either read to your kids for you or help them to create unique stories that they can read for the whole family later. Scroll through for 11 of our favourite apps.
