Disney Publishing has launched its first app for Android phones. Called "Winnie the Pooh: What's a bear to do?", the app offers an interactive story that can be heard in five languages-English, French, German, Spanish, or Japanese. At certain times in the story you or your child can record something to be played at appropriate times in the story. There are three modes to the book, one uses the voice of you or your children, one reads the story to you and the third automatically turns the pages of the book.

Besides the story, a matching game called Pooh's cupboards teaches youngsters things like colors and there are also four jigsaw puzzles to play with. Check out the video below for more on the app, which is available for $2.99 in the Android Market for phones running Android 2.0 or higher. And because it is from Disney, you don't have to worry about what your kids are learning from the app.
