Smart Apps For Kids

The Lonely Beast ABC: Review

 

 

Bottom Line: Cute and simple alphabet book perfect for young preschoolers. The interactive elements are fun and will entertain while they teach. Plus, who can resist a jiggling jelly?

iMommy: Review

 

 Bottom line: lets your little one “play mom,” taking care of the baby by finding things that upset him or make him happy. Will probably appeal most to kids ages 3-6. Free lite version available.  

Good Free App of the Day - Hogworld: Gnart's Adventure ($5 app!)

** Sorry but if you are reading this, this app has gone back to full price. Please sign up for our Free App Alert so you don't miss any of our free app posts. **

 

(Also check out our Featured Free and Reduced Apps)

A top quality 3D adventure story with plenty of relatively interactive games seamlessly added throughout.

It may be a little scary for younger children.  My 4-year old sat on my lap reading and playing it (for 45 minutes) the first time but she now uses it independently.

Well worth a download for the bargain price of $0.Highly recommended. 

The Adventures of Slibby the Snail: Review

 

 

Bottom Line: A storybook app containing some great interactive features, good practice for learning to follow directions, and s-blends that can’t be beat for speech therapy, but too many weak areas to recommend.

Coco Dress Up 3D - Review

 

 

Bottom Line: Extensive dress-up-a-doll app with 400+ clothing and accessory options, including a dinosaur costume! It makes creative use of technology, and it’s even free to try (with in-app purchases). There are social media and external links, however, and the full set of items costs $4.99.

Count Up to Ten - Review

 

 

Bottom line: a sweet little app to help very early learners master numbers 1 through 10. Uses Montessori teaching methods and contains three levels of difficulty for ages 3-6. Free lite version available.
