Apps for Kids is Boing Boing’s podcast about cool smartphone apps for kids and parents. My co-host is my 10-year-old daughter, Jane.
In this episode, we review Stop Motion Studio, a free iPhone app that makes it easy to create your own stop-motion animated movies. We also present the winner of our Minecraft contest. The winner is 10-year-old Ruby Schweitzer, who created an entire village she calls Klenmeere Woods. See photos of her creation below. Ruby and her dad will be guests on an upcoming issue of Apps for Kids, and Ruby will get a $10 iTunes gift card.
If you’re an app developer and would like to have Jane and me try one of your apps for possible review, email a redeem code to appsforkids@boingboing.net.
Jane and I love to get your emails with questions about game, gear, and tech. What’s your question?

Here’s the winner of our Minecraft Contest!
My name is Ruby Schweitzer and I’m from Cary, North Carolina. I am 10 years old. I have designed a town which I call Klenmeere Woods. The photos in this email are screenshots of different interesting parts of my village.
This is what each photo is a picture of:
So this is Klenmeere Woods. It’s not so big now, but that’s because I just started.
