Android & iPhone Apps for Kids

You may view your phone as a communications device, but your kids know that it’s actually an awesome mobile gaming center. When you’re caught in traffic or facing an unexpectedly long wait at the pediatrician’s office, you are going to hand over that phone. The kids will be happy, you’ll be relieved, and, if you choose your apps carefully, they might even learn something while they play. — Sonya Mukherjee (babble.com)
