***Virry has got People's Choice Webby Awards 2015 in kids&family; category! Hooray!***We filmed the daily life of real animals and used this footage to make fun learning games for children. Shake and tilt your iPad to feed a real lion, make a baby rhino run, meerkats dig or a giraffe lick salt. You can shout to get their attention, or keep still and silent to calm them down. We put HD cameras in their enclosures, so you can watch your favourite animals live, keep your own observer's diary and learn all the fun and fascinating facts about these wild creatures. All the cameras are remotely operated by our team of wildlife film makers (for the BBC, Discovery and more). They are all devoted animal-lovers and have their own community on Facebook and a channel on YouTube.Virry is aimed at developing core cognitive and learning skills. It was created in collaboration with Prof. Gail F. Melson, an authority on children's development, leader in the field of Human-Animal Interaction (HAI) at Purdue University, USA and author of “Where the Wild Things Are: Animals in the Lives of Children”.Professor Gail F. Melson, PhD“At first, I was dubious that having children spend more time on an ipad would help connect them to wild creatures, but interactive apps can bring images of wild animals – in high definition—close up and vivid, while at the same time, not disturbing the animals. The sense of engagement with these animals can heighten children’s commitment to caring for and preserving them”Steve Backshall, BAFTA-winning naturalist, BBC TV's Deadly 60 "This is a terrific gateway to the wild world, a chance for kids to reach out to animals on the other side of the world. A young audience engage most effectively with wildlife when they feel like they have an actual connection to the animals, as if they can reach out and touch them, actually interacting with wild wonders. This ap enables the user to do just that, watching exotic and iconic animals in real time, taking part as their real lives and dramas unfold, whilst learning hot facts and playing games that let them feel like they are a part of the animal’s world."Dominic West, Actor "I spent all morning on Virry with my two boys and we love it. We fed a lion and watched a rhino live all from our living room sofa! It's a safe, educational and utterly compelling way to learn about the animals we love. Get on it, it's brilliant!" Svetlana Dragaeva, the head of Virry Team, trained educator and film producer“In early childhood, the development of empathy and perspective-taking is key to good social relationships with other children and adults, as well as school-related learning. Engaging with animals can be an effective tool for developing these skills, since an animal’s needs and emotions are clearly different from a child’s” *Animals are filmed in Al Ain Zoo in UAE, which follows strong animal welfare ethics and has serious interests in conservation projects.**Virry supports charities and foundations for children with special needs, granting them free and unlimited access to all Virry animal content.You can watch short mood-curated videos about all sorts of other animals, discover the whole world of wildlife and find out about the many positive ways conservation can help animals in trouble. Children and their parents, grandparents and whole family will be entertained for hours by playing and learning together about wild animals and their protection; practicing important cognitive, non-cognitive and social skills along the way.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/virryappTwitter: https://twitter.com/virryappInstagram: http://instagram.com/virryapp
