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.

The Moron Test

Let me begin by saying that I don’t enjoy taking The Moron Test, perhaps because I already know what the results will be. However, my children are constantly playing it and thoroughly enjoy the experience. The Moron Test asks a series of questions that really get you thinking. Some of them have obvious answers and others appear to have obvious answers that end up being wrong. Every time I attempt this game, I have a moment where I wonder why it took me so long to find the answer. (I think that may be the whole point of the app.) The Moron Test gets my kids thinking outside the box and looking for answers beyond their initial reaction to a question. It’s fun for the entire family and will give everyone’s brain and powers of observation a workout.

















My daughter loves this app — and it’s tough! Highly recommended.
