Draw funny animals! Learn the alphabet! Expand your device with pen and paper! DRAWNIMAL is a unique app where kids draw adorable animals while learning the alphabet. With your phone or tablet placed on paper, kids select an animal face from the alphabet menu and draw around the device. The app then instructs how to draw the rest of the animal body. The digital screen is inventively extended with a simple physical interaction, which encourages kids to think outside the box. Hilarious and delightful animations motivate to keep learning. Our primary goal with the app was to expand your device by using simple tangible tools like pen and paper. Features: + Play with up to 35 animals + Get the first 5 animals (A-E) for free + Draw animals and see them come alive with animation + Practice the alphabet in a creative and interactive way + Switch between 5 languages + Lively animations and impressive audio + No failing, no goal, no wrong or right + Supports all iPads and iPhones with iOS 16 or later + No internet access needed! + No advertisements!

About

TernaryCalc

Features
Read full description

This is a balanced ternary calculator. You can use it to add, subtract, multiply and divide just like any other calculator, only it works with a different number system. This takes a little getting used to, but it opens up an interesting new perspective on arithmetic. In particular, it provides an answer to the question: how do balanced number systems affect the way arithmetic works? When positive and negative numbers are on completely equal footing, does it still make sense to say that a negative times a negative equals a positive? The answer is: yes, it does – but it depends on the direction from which you approach it. This, along with other aspects of balanced ternary calculation, is explored in the ternary calculator. It’s a tool with a story to tell, and the story unfolds in the calculator’s info screen.
