Remember the very first time you opened a pop-up book? There are times when memories of those books would come to mind and remind me how magical the experience was. It still is. So when I go to bookstores {I especially like those hole-in-the-wall book shops with old, old books} I still scan the shelves for aged books. I had Three Little Pigs and Cinderella, but my favorite was Little Red Riding Hood. One of the pages had a tab you could pull on the side if you wanted the big bad wolf to stick its tongue out. I’d skip all other pages to get to that one first.  

The concept of moving books had been around for a very long time. Mechanical and movable books were first used to illustrate concepts in Astronomy and were designed for the purpose of teaching. It wasn’t until the 1700’s when pop-up books for children were created and started becoming popular.

Today, books continue to change in beautiful ways. The EVO 3D Augmented Reality Books are bringing us a unique experience in reading and learning. My daughter calls them her “phone books”. If you come from a generation where phone books were still relevant and useful in people’s lives, you’d understand why the comment is quite amusing.

You need to download a free app to enjoy the 3D aspect of the EVO books. Attika says she loves how animals in her books come to life. She has both the EVO Birds and EVO Ocean and more than just the joy of being able to see animals in her books move, they are also interactive. You can control them and let them move around, learn about the food that they eat, their environment, their skeletal structures and the sounds they make. 

Here are ways 3D Augmented Reality Books Make Fun Learning and Beneficial for Kids

Complex ideas are made easier. 

My daughter is just learning how to read and these 3D books are helping her appreciate and learn concepts that are a bit too complex to learn through reading for her age. For example, an interactive tool of EVO teaches her what certain birds eat and how they move. 

Visual learning is engaging.

Young learners are stimulated by movements, colors and sounds, so kids don’t get bored and even enjoy repeating information, thereby allowing them to absorb the information faster.

There is control in the use of technology.

Unlike other learning tools or games online, kids cannot just skip to other activities that are not related to what they’re currently learning. They can repeat parts of the book that interest them and they learn faster that way.

Attika can tell you more about the EVO books in this video. You might need to use a headphone for this one though. We're still working on our video editing dexterity (wink, wink!)
