"Into the Snow We Go" takes children on an exciting winter adventure. As Stella and Sam search for their lost toboggan, children play along by making pictures in the snow, decorating a snowman and discovering what's hidden under the snow.
The four adventures in the series are based on Stella and Sam, the animated TV show about the joy and wonder of childhood. It currently airs on Playhouse Disney and Playhouse Disney Tele in Canada. zinc Roe worked closely with the show's producers from Radical Sheep Productions and consulted Marie-Louise Gay, author of the best-selling book series, to bring Stella and Sam's imaginative world to the iPad. The adventures can also be played online at PlayhouseDisney.ca.
"The Stella and Sam property is all about sparking children's creativity," says Jason Krogh, zinc Roe's founder and director. "That's why we designed the adventures with open-ended activities and stunning animation segments. And the iPad is easy for young children to use, making these the perfect apps for parents and their preschoolers to enjoy together."
The apps play in either English or French.
The Stella and Sam Adventures are produced by zinc Roe design with the participation of Radical Sheep Productions, the Bell Broadcast and New Media Fund and the Canadian Media Fund (CMF).
