Mary and the Sea Monster: A Personalised Kids App

"Mary & the Sea Monster" is a fun animated story based on the life of Mary Anning, who at the age of 12 discovered the first evidence of prehistoric sea reptiles. You join her in the story by adding your photo, and helping Mary prove her theories, but you can do it on your own. You will need to get the help of your son, daughter, grandchild, niece, nephew, etc.

After you have personalised your version of the story with your name and picture, you can send it on to your chosen family member. Once they receive your gift, they can play back the story, and complete 4 games along the way. At the end of the story there is a digital colouring in which they can use to make their own picture of a dinosaur, and then send it back to you as a thank you.
