Thanks for the Franks was a VeggieTales app that was created by Playful Owl as part of the Step-by-Story series. The app has been discontinued and is no longer available in the app store.
Plot[]
The Gourd Brothers are famous for their love of Franks. Yes, hot dogs are their thing! Join them as they add hotdogs to everything they want to eat and learn that sharing makes friends!
When a child completes a story, their choices are turned in to a charmingly simple animated movie, set to VeggieTales music, that ends with an important moral read by Larry himself: "Remember, when I share, I get my share of friends!"
Step-by-Story mobile apps help build reading readiness. They are carefully designed for pre-readers and early readers (kids from 2 - 5) to help them associate words, sounds and pictures in preparation for reading.
Every element of this app is designed to keep your child focused on the right things. The screens feature large buttons that require press-and-hold, so they can't be pressed by accident. Stories are deliberately short and easy to create, so that the youngest of children can experience the fulfillment that comes from being able to complete a meaningful task without help from an adult.
Every element of the app is built on classic principles of child development and a deep understanding of children's play patterns.
Learning is always best through meaningful play not meaningless distraction! Start playing your way to reading readiness with Step by Story today!
