Featured App: Extraordinary Jenny Jones.

 Extraordinary Jenny Jones from Paperplane introduces your elementary reader to the “original square peg in a round hole."

With beautiful, hand-drawn illustrations and the addition of mini-games and hidden puzzles, this is a storybook app with lots to offer.

BRAND NEW Featured App - Tasty Tadpoles.

When I first read the title of this app from developer Mark White, I was a little nervous that someone was going to make me eat a tadpole which I am just not ok with on lots of levels.

Much to my pleasant surprise, no one offered me food. I was taken wayyyyy back to my childhood memories (ok, so they’re not that far back) to the video game Frogger, just…fishy-er.

Featured App: iJumble - Spanish

Does the world “alces” mean anything to you? A little time spent with iJumble -Spanish from Aeralas and you’d quickly learn it’s the Spanish word for “moose”, which is a pretty popular word among the Smart Apps staff for some odd reason.

This, and a lot of other vocabulary words (some more useful than others) are what you’ll find inside this bi-lingual spelling app!

Featured App - Potty Training: Learning with the Animals.

Some things take a long time. Waiting for your birthday, waiting on your tax return check, waiting for bed time even seems years away some days.

Potty training is another one of those things that can’t happen soon enough for some. Developers at 1tucan.com took this into consideration, and “Potty Training: Learning with the Animals” is what came of it! This app is targeted at potty-training-aged kiddos to encourage the act of going to the “toilet”, as it’s called in this app.

Featured App: Stories with Values HD

Reading is all kinds of fun, but learning from reading is even better!

The folks at Edebe Mobile have smushed reading, learning, and great conversation starters into one app simply titled “Stories with Values”  (so you have no excuse to not know the name.)
