image001Scholastic Parent & Child magazine has released a new ad-supported mobile app called KidQ, which is designed as a conversation starter for parents and kids.

The app poses a number of questions such as: Why is the sky blue? Why do we say “ears” of corn? How does your brain talk to your body. The app then gives answers with explanations which readers are encouraged to discuss. Using the app, parents can share their kid’s cute responses via Twitter and Facebook.

The app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
