"An iPad app released Wednesday makes it easy to combine a drawing on the tablet with an audio memory \u2014 such as your child's description of his or her artwork. \nThe app, Draw and Tell, features a standard coloring palette of 27 crayons, pencils or brushes. But in addition to the color selections, stamps, stickers and stencils, it has an option to record a short message to attach to the drawing.\nOther apps such as Fotobabble marry sound and images, but the concept seems particularly well-suited to a children's drawing app. As demonstrated in this YouTube video, the app has potential to increase the \"aww\" factor of sending a drawing to grandma. \n\nSEE ALSO: New iPad App Reinvents the Coloring Book \u2014 With Butts\nAfter testing out my own coloring skills on the app, my only criticism is this: The sharing capabilities are limited. There aren't any buttons to share the drawings through email, Facebook or Twitter. Rather, the app saves drawings as video files on your photo roll. It's up to you to email and share them as you would with any video.\nStill, the \"aww\" moment might be worth the extra steps \u2014 as long as grandma is tech-savvy enough to open a video attachment.\n\n\n\n\nBONUS: 10 iPad Apps To Put on Your Radar\nWe\u2019ve compiled a list of free iPhone apps that will help get you through each day, whether it\u2019s waking up in the morning, keeping up with the news or managing your to-do list.\n\n\nFree iPhone Apps You'll Use Every Day\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1.
