Smart Apps For Kids

What Will I Be? - Review

  

  

Bottom Line: an interactive story that is the perfect medium to fuel a child's dreams of what the future may have in store for him or her.

Fat Shadow: Review

 

 

Bottom line: A strange little interactive book that delivers a message about overeating with some rather heavy handed tough love. I realize it's a matter of personal taste, but I just didn't enjoy it.

Luca Lashes has his First Swimming Lesson

 

 

Bottom Line: This book has a lot of potential. It's worth a look for parents of toddlers and preschoolers, but a number of things need to be fixed in an update before it can live up to that potential and be fully enjoyed.

Luca Lashes and His First Trip to the Dentist: Review

 

 

Bottom Line: A nice little story aimed at reducing the fear and trepidation that children can have about new experiences. Aimed at 0-4 year olds but contains a parents' section with tips on kids' dental visits as well.

Luca Lashes Learns to Brush His Teeth

 

 

Bottom Line: A gentle book with an adorable hero that teaches children the steps and importance of brushing teeth—even if it feels a little scary at first. Also available for Android.

ConversationBuilder Teen: Review

 

 

Bottom Line: An app so original and advanced in its capabilities, we lack categories to describe it yet. Useful for all teens needing a confidence boost in their use of language in social settings.

Luca Lashes and His First Haircut

 

 

Bottom Line: A calming, gentle story that introduces young children to the sights and sounds of a hair salon by accompanying little Luca, the Brown-Eyed Boy with Magic Eyelashes, on his first visit.
