Picture Me Christmas Cutie on iPad

Encinitas, Calif. (PRWEB) December 14, 2011

Just in time for the holidays, Oceanhouse Media, Inc. announces the release of Picture Me Christmas Cutie on Apple devices at the special introductory price of 99 cents. For the first time in an omBook (Oceanhouse Media digital book), parents can incorporate their child’s photo into the app making them the main character of the story. Oceanhouse Media has secured the rights to bring the Picture Me personalized book series to the app market as part of a new licensing agreement with Picture Me Press, LLC.

“Parents and children will enjoy this Christmas-themed omBook as they themselves become a part of the story,” said Michel Kripalani, President of Oceanhouse Media. “Picture Me Press is an exciting addition to our family of licensors. Their collection of personalized books is perfect for the digital medium.”

Easily take a picture or add photos from your library to the Picture Me Christmas Cutie omBook and your child can see themselves dressed up in various costumes including a helpful Santa’s elf, cute Christmas teddy bear, jolly snowman, cuddly mouse and playful reindeer. The omBook supports pre-literacy skills in the youngest of readers and encourages imaginative play as a child can take on a variety of characters.

Special features include randomization of photos so that the user’s images in the book are on different pages with each read through, high quality artwork based on studio photography, and word highlighting in sync with professional audio narration. In addition, young children will enjoy the playful sounds and interactive objects on every page.

“Children enjoy our books on a personal level, so seeing themselves turned into characters in interactive digital books naturally adds to the experience,” said Deborah B. D’Andrea, Creative Developer and Founder of Picture Me Press. “The Picture Me Christmas Cutie omBook is also a terrific keepsake that parents can have with them on the go to share with family and friends.”

HalloweenCostumeDepot.com Expands Revenue by 500%, Plans Improvements for 2012 Halloween Costumes

Halloween Costumes 2012

Glendale, CA (PRWEB) December 01, 2011

HalloweenCostumeDepot.com, an industry leader in Halloween costumes, masks and accessories, expanded its revenue by over 500% in 2011, as the Halloween season came to a close.

“Demand was really high this year,” said Chris Nadzharyan, founder and CEO of HalloweenCostumeDepot.com. “With 2011 now in the books, we are already looking ahead to Halloween Costumes 2012. Our busiest time of year just wrapped up, but we are rolling out improvements to ensure that the 2012 Halloween season is just as big, if not bigger.”

These improvements include the addition of 2,000 more costumes to the site’s inventory. “Kids costumes change all the time,” Nadzharyan said. “Adult costume options tend to be very similar year-to-year, like a cop costume for instance, but we have to keep the children’s costume inventory fresh. There are always new additions.”    

HalloweenCostumeDepot.com also plans to offer quicker processing times, higher security for online shoppers and multiple payment and shipping methods. Processing time will be reduced from 48 hours to 24 hours. Overnight and Saturday delivery options will also be made available, so if you have an emergency need for a Star Wars costume, you can get one delivered right to your door in less than a day. The addition of PayPal and Google checkout payment options will help ensure a quick transaction.

“We’ve received a ton of feedback from our customers this season. Over the next six months, we will be incorporating this feedback and creating an improved shopping experience on the site,” Nadzharyan said. “Next season, customers will be able to view 360 degree videos for many costumes, refine their search results and take advantage of discounts, contests and our 110% price guarantee.”

Discounts will be available for customers who order over $ 65 in costumes and accessories. Leading up to Halloween 2012, the site will host numerous contests where customers can submit costume photos for a chance to win up to $ 200 towards the purchase of new costumes and accessories.

“We are excited with the success that we experienced this past Halloween season,” Nadzharyan said, “but we want to keep pushing forward. With the improvements that we have planned, we’re hopeful that our site will be the number one online option for Halloween costumes in 2012.”

Please stay tuned for more news in the coming months as HalloweenCostumeDepot.com strives to create a unique shopping experience.

Children’s Halloween Costumes Get New Twist

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida (PRWEB) September 12, 2006

Buying new children’s Halloween costumes every year can seem like a waste of time and money. However, with Halloween less than two months away, there’s a new way to get more bang for your buck with a three-in-one costume that recycles the outfit without recycling the idea.

That’s right, it’s three Halloween costumes for the price of one.

Shari McConahay, Vice President of Marketing for leading Halloween Costume website http://www.AnniesCostumes.com, said these childrens Halloween costumes are the perfect solution for kids who have more than one Halloween event to go to.

“It’s a girls’ prerogative to change her mind and now she can without having to run out and buy a new Halloween costume,” McConahay said, “These 3 in 1 costumes are also great for playing dress up girl games all year long.”

These versatile new childrens Halloween costumes can be worn three different ways in one season or spread out over the year for three unique costumes on three different occasions.

With only one Halloween costume, a lucky little girl can be a Princess, a Fairy or Zarina. Other 3 in 1 children’s Halloween costumes for girls include a Devil, Spanish Dancer and child Mouse costume in one and a Devil, Blue Witch or Orange Witch in another.

These great costumes aren’t only for girls. Boy’s 3 in 1 costumes include a Cowboy, Indian, Peter Pan combo, a Ninja, Spanish Bandit and Cat or a Devil, Pirate and Vampire.
