The ultimate guide to the best free iphone apps for kids.
FIRST WORDS: SAMPLER
The simplest kids iphone apps are often the best. FirstWords Sampler introduces letters, words and spelling to kids. You touch a letter tile and move it into the correct place to spell simple words such as ‘cat’.
SHAPE BUILDER LITE
I don’t know any kid who doesn’t enjoy Shape Builder. Featured in the O’Reilly book of “Best iPhone Apps”. You move shapes that snap into place on a silhouette puzzle. Cool sound effects and graphics. Buy the paid version for a lot more shapes – it’s worth it.
TOZZLE LITE
Another puzzle solver. Kids can drag and drop pieces into the correct slot. Only four puzzles for the free version, but still, it’s a fun play
MY FIRST PUZZLES LITE
Beautiful graphics and you simply shake the iPhone to reset the puzzle.
COOKING MAMA LITE
The famous cooking action game, “Cooking Mama” is one of the most original iphone apps for kids around. You can chop vegetables, stir stews, melt butter in a skillet. A great introduction to cooking and the magical science of cooking.
