Kids Apps

15 Jan 2011

In this post you’ll find reviews of the best kids apps for iPad. All these apps have been extensively tested by my 3-year-old daughter and myself. Obviously we haven’t tested every single kids app but we have tested many (around 90). I have picked the best apps in terms of usability, ability to hold interest, artwork, music and sounds, and value for money. I also considered educational value but I didn’t emphasize it because my daughter doesn’t understand English which is the language in most apps.

Best Free iPad Games

15 Jan 2011

In this post I’ll focus on the best free iPad games. To be more precise I’ll focus on pick up and play kind of games that won’t require you to invest much time in them. At the moment, there are over 8000 games available in the App Store. There are many high quality games with incredibly low price and some that are actually free. In this review, I’ll exclude limited lite versions of games and concentrate on the games that are really free and offer more than just a few levels to test.
