Talking Cutie is a fun free iPad app that lets you add voices to images. Simply take a photograph, and then record up to 60 seconds of narration over the top. You can then add a talking face to the object - choosing from a wide range of different features.
This would have lots of uses in the classroom. Children could add a short description of an artefact in history, historical characters, famous people, they could describe different animals and plants in science.
This would be great for foreign language work, with the children speaking short phrases in the target language.
The app changes the voice, so children who hate hearing themselves shouldn't have a problem when the finished video is played back, as it doesn't sound like them.
