Children Audio Books with parents voice!
Lately, I have come across a website that is promoting a method for parents to read and record audio books for their own children. The concept is nice, even though in my opinion, it would be much richer and entertaining if these kids audio books recorded by some parents can be made available and shared with others. Maybe, contributing parents can have free access to titles, and others would have to pay some small charge for downloading the children audio books.
Anyhow, the concept as it is is interesting for the following reasons, as stated in their website:
- The recorded kids story book sound is very professional, with great music and sound effects that kids will love.
- The system as it is designed show the parent when to speak and which line to read. When you are happy it is sounding just right, it produces a high-quality MP3 with all the music and sound effects for a listening experience that is fun and worthwhile.
- There is a a wonderful choice of titles to suit everybody’s choice. From The Snail and the Whale and Laura’s Star, to Little Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigs, with new titles being added all the time!
- There is a free trial for every one.
The website address is the following Childrens Audio Books with parents voice. If you happen to try it, please share your experience with us, and if you care, share your children audio book, and we will make it available here for download by others, and we will form eventually an Audio Book Club.
Thanks for the info, that sounds really great! It makes the audiobooks much more personal and special for the children if their own parents (or maybe grandparents) read them. I think it’s the best if you read stories to your child yourself, but sometimes you simply are busy and you just can’t do it. Maybe you have to work, or go out in the evening, or your child is visiting his grandparents. For these times, an audiobook read by the parents is a great alternative. Certainly much nicer than some stranger speaking.
Very useful, I tried the software and the quality is great. As for other people narrating, it comes handy for giving your kids some variety, especially that you cannot narrate every story on earth, and it also comes handy if you’re trying to teach your kids some skill, language, etc.
