TECH EDGE
|
Tech EDGE is a podcast series on iTunes that consist of hundreds of different episodes. The few that I watched were incredibly insightful on different apps that are not only useful in your future classroom, but also for yourself! One of the episodes that I viewed talked about relaxing apps that adults can have fun and play with. I'm glad that now I have a few new apps on my iPad that I can play to just simply relax and pass time with. The episodes are fairly short with lots of great information. Not to mention they are free! I can't wait to explore more of these podcasts and download some new apps!

Epic Zen Garden is an app where you can explore and create your own zen garden. The 15 minutes I played this app I was instantly hooked! There are no points and it's not competitive (which sometimes aggravates me while playing a game). In this app you get to explore a zen house, garden, and pond, while adding or changing things to make it the way you like. You can also explore the area around the Zen house which is not what you would expect. While making and exploring there is peaceful background music that actually makes you relax, which is perfect after a stressful day at school. This app is also free, so it's definitely worth trying out!

The Adult Coloring Book is another relaxing app, that is fun for everybody! There are a lot of different coloring pages to choose from that are free, or you have the option to purchase additional pages to color. While coloring you can choose a distinct pattern for the whole picture, or can randomly color the whole picture! I enjoy coloring with crayons and colored pencils, but don't always have these things available at my convenience. However I do have my iPad with me a majority of the time, so I always have the option of coloring this way. This app is a great way to just sit down, relax, and have fun!
