With My Baby in a corporate custody battle, SouthPeak will try to tap the eager-to-learn demographic with a new line of educational products — the first of which will be the biblically-inspired Tap and Teach: The Story of Noah’s Ark for DS. Setting sail, er, floating through retail waters this November, the game is, according to SouthPeak CEO Melanie Mrox, part of a strategic initiative “designed to capture share of the rapidly expanding educational gaming sector.”

SouthPeak’s Noah’s Ark — not to be confused with Noah’s Arc or Super 3D Noah’s Ark — is an interactive storybook designed to help kids ages 3-6 with their reading skills. The Tap and Teach franchise is marketed as “wholesome fun” — the kind that parents can “trust.” Rest assured, any minigame about “the birds and the bees” will be strictly about birds and bees.
