Cablevision's '12 in Our Schools' Features Maggie Tales(TM)

No more bored kids: free and easy with iTunes, the fun of story time anywhere, anytime

BUCKS COUNTY, Pa., May 6 /PRNewswire/ -- What's a parent to do when kids are bored and fidgety and you're on the go? Turn to Maggie Tales(TM), Instant Storytime(TM) for Kids and brainchild of founder Mark Smith of Buckingham, Pa.

That's what he told viewers of News 12 New Jersey's "12 In Our Schools." The program, hosted by Emmy Award-winning Brian Evans, reaches millions of viewers in the greater New York, New Jersey and Connecticut areas. The segment will be available on www.MaggieTales.com.

Instead of having to pack loads of books or gaming devices, just let your children watch and listen to a story, based on popular picture books, on your iPhone, iPod Touch, Nano, or most any media device.

Maggie Tales podcasts are free at the iTunes Store or www.MaggieTales.com for downloading before you leave home or can be streamed to your WiFi-enabled phone for those unexpected times. Then your kids can enjoy storytime when you want to read but have to do something else - like drive them somewhere. Keep your child entertained - with a fun learning experience - while shopping, waiting in line or meeting with other adults.

"Maggie Tales were designed by educators to create the classroom story time experience in an easy to use portable format for kids to enjoy anytime and anywhere," said Mark Smith, founder of Maggie Tales.

Additional Maggie Tales are being added as children's publishers sign-up.
