My daughter did something really strange this morning as she was using the iPad. At first, I didn't quite understand why every time she tapped on the next arrow that navigate to the next page, she took a quick step back. It looks like she was afraid to look at the screen for some odd reason. So I pretended to be busy reading something on my laptop while quietly observed what she was doing. I finally realized that the ABC's in the Starfall apps have these real pictures of different animals. What she was afraid of was those "scary looking" animals like a alligator, snake, and many others. Since Starfall is a very interactive apps for children, they would have picture of the alligator snapping its mouth with the snapping sounds or the lion roaring loudly. My daughter is such a big chicken! She is scared of every little moving things. She would jump up and scream if a fly flew by her face. Once, we were having dinner and an ant crawl by her feet, she would jump onto my husband's lap and scream. How could I help her overcome these silly fear?
