It's taken much longer than I anticipated, but we've finally come to the end of the Editor's Top 15 countdown. No. 1 on the list, by a fairly wide margin, is BrainPop Featured Movie. This free app provides an excellent, short animated educational video per day and is the first app I would recommend to another parent.
Please read my awesome five-star review:
My oldest son's favorite app. Actually BrainPop is probably his favorite thing in the world. A terrific free app that is a must-download if you have school-age children. We pay $6.99 per month, and are grateful to do it, for the full subscription.
My 10-year old son with autism uses a mechanism known as echolalia for various purposes. (Think Dustin Hoffman in the Rain Man reciting The People's Court intro over and over.)
Ryan does it to comfort himself like a blanket. When he was younger, he would recite Sesame Street, or a section from a book, or something else that he loved....
...So what does this have to do with BrainPop?
