Green Up

“Both myself and my little testers thoroughly enjoyed Green Up and would definitely recommend the app as a way of engaging children in ecology, science and gardening.” – bestappsforkids

“It is also a great resource for teachers who want to help their students connect plant anatomy to its physiology.” – iPadGadget

Green Up is a family-oriented game that allows kids to grow seeds from all around the world in different environments strawberries in the woods, palm trees in the desert, carnivorous plants in the jungle...

As an educational tool, Green Up gives children a hands-on way to learn the basics of ecology and biodiversity. Key fact items include
- The Earth is divided into two hemispheres. When it is winter in the northern hemisphere, it is summer in the southern hemisphere.
- The world is home to a variety of climates, each with its own features.
- Climate shapes the landscape.
- It is easier to grow a plant in its own habitat.
- Pesticides are not the only way to deal with insect pests.
- Fertilizer can be made from compost dead plants.

Kids will also be learning some gardening basics—plants need to be watered and fertilized, and protected from freezing temperatures and pests.
They will be practicing what they learned at school about the parts of a plant and parts of a flower.
They will experiment with concepts like pollination and learn first-hand when it happens during a plant’s life-cycle.
They will grow their own plants; when a plant’s cycle is complete, they can collect the plant in an album.
