Parents who have known the joy of reading to their children know how precious that period is, particularly in retrospect. One of the many pleasures of Sparkup is that it creates audio keepsakes of those moments, treasures that can be backed up to computer and enjoyed for years to come. Another is that it engages children in new and different ways, adding an interactive element to the magic and beauty of reading a physical book with honest-to-goodness pages. Sparkup not only records parents' and children's voices during the reading, it later recognizes books and plays back the correct words in the reader's voice as each page is turned. Easy to use, Sparkup simply clips onto a book's back cover, a position from which its tiny camera can record a view of each page and map it to the correct place in the audio file being created. Kids adore the experience. Those too young to read can listen to Mom or Dad's voice reading stories over and over again. Those already reading on their own are inspired to repeatedly pore over book after book making, and listening to, their own recordings. Burgeoning literary experiences are made all the more delightful and memorable by the added creative stimulation. Professional recordings of books can be purchased and downloaded from the company's website directly to your Sparkup.
