Top 50 iPhone Apps for Kids


About a week after I began using my iPhone, I was in love. I had a calendar with me at all times, and I was able to stay on top of my family's schedule - even though there are six of us! I had email access while I was out, so I wasn't constantly playing catch up with PTO business in the evening. Then I discovered apps! There are many apps to help busy moms manage their lives, but there are also just as many exclusively for kids. My children can watch videos, interact with their favorite characters, and practice letter-writing and math. No matter where my family goes, they can be entertained and I can have peace of mind knowing they're learning even while they're having fun.

In January 2009 I began a website, The iPhone Mom, dedicated to helping moms find apps that could do the same for them and their children. Since beginning the site, I've seen both the quantity and quality of useful apps for kids grow.

Babble.com asked me to put together a list of my Top 50 iPhone Apps for Kids. Here, in descending order, are my favorites and the ones I think you'll find most useful.

iBooks is an excellent source of children’s literature for your iPhone. I appreciate the bookshelf view and how easy it is to purchase books from your phone. Books can be shared between your iPhone, iPod and iPad, the selection of titles is expanding all the time. They have a decent children’s section, and thanks to both of these apps, my children can easily have access to portable children’s literature.

    Hi, thought you might like to know that my most-loved book, The Ginger Ninja, is now available on ibooks for the iPad. I’ve done the work myself and have included extra features including video background interview and video drawing lesson.
