My son is really into my “game phone.” Or, as I call it, my iPhone. It has saved my life during long waits at doctor’s appointments and car rides that ended up longer than I anticipated. Oh, and at restaurants. Basically any time I need a solid 20 minutes of PLEASE PLEASE BE QUIET, I whip out Game Phone. Here are his favorite apps:
Angry Birds: It’s not just for adults. My four-year-old loves it. He also calls it Mad Birds.
Shape Builder: My son plays this non stop. He loves finding out what the shape is once he’s finished.
iKnow Phonics: This seems really boring to me, and yet… my son plays it non stop. Great little learning game.
FirstWords: A simple letter scramble game that teaches spelling and reading.
Giraffe’s Matching Zoo: This is a basic memory game with cute animal icons.
Teddy Bear: We don’t own this one yet, but it’s getting lots of great buzz as being one of the best animated storybook apps.
I’ve never played Angry Birds but my kids are constantly playing it on their iTouches!!! I may have to check it out!
