Excerpt:

Thanksgiving is Thursday, and that implies even more than 43 million Americans will be on the roadway, driving to family gatherings. For many moms and dads, the crowded roads can bring another challenge : Keeping a nine-year-old amused along the method. And sometimes, DVDs are not nearly enough. Nowadays, kids love to play with smartphones and tablets, also. With that in mind, NPR's Renee Montagne spoke with an actual nine-year-old, Jane Frauenfelder, and her father, Mark. Together, they host the podcast Apps For Kids. Here 's a list of apps the Frauenfelders recommend for traveling kids, in a meeting airing on Morning Edition Wednesday:. Story Dice-- Making up stories is a time-honored method to pass the time on the roadway.

Key:

Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
