G-dcast announced this week that its latest animated app one that teaches kids how to make challah and partake in the Jewish rituals surrounding it is available to download for free in the App Store.
Lets Bake Challah! is the S.F.-based nonprofits fifth app, but the first designed for 3- to 6-year-olds. Kids using their parents smartphone or iPad get to interact by doing things such as dragging ingredients into a mixing bowl, rolling out dough and braiding the challah. Optional parental settings include prayers, lessons about rituals and a male or female voice.
