When given the chance to help end a disease that has no cure, but is killing millions of people, I'm signing up. No question about it. Alzheimer's needs to be something that isn't a death sentence.

Teaching kids to read with an app

By | 2016-08-30T16:44:22-04:00 August 12, 2013|Family, Reviews|Comments Off on Teaching kids to read with an app

Learn with Homer may have been something a #commoncore advocate started, but it's still a great app to enhance the learning experience for your kids!
