Beginning today, Loud Crow Interactive is holding a Christmas scavenger hunt, and the prize is a brand new iPad2 pre-loaded with Loud Crow’s interactive story apps. All you need to do to play is download (or update – purchase of app required) A Charlie Brown Christmas to v2. The contest is also available for Android and Nook users, please see links below.

Steps to enter:

1. Download or update “A Charlie Brown Christmas”
2. Starting December 13^th, one ornament from the “12 Days of Christmas” song will be revealed each day within the app
3. Find all 12 ornaments for your chance to win an iPad 2 pre-loaded with Loud Crow apps

A Charlie Brown Christmas is currently on sale for $4.99 on iTunes, Android Market, Amazon App Store for Android or Nook and is Rated 4+. The iOS version of the interactive book is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad devices running iOS 3.2.2 or later. Note – as of posting time, the Nook update was not yet live on the Nook store, but according to Loud Crow, it will be available “in short order.” Also – I’m not entirely clear on how you actually enter the contest once all of the ornaments are unlocked – perhaps the app automatically sends a message home to enter the reader – more information will be available on Loud Crow’s Facebook and Twitter pages.

Readers can help Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the entire Peanuts gang as they struggle to find the true meaning of Christmas.
