Dad’s Choice – App Recommendations for a child with an iPad

Posted By on Sep 22, 2013 | 2 comments


Well my cute daughter Anna is running around with our generation one iPad. Since the tech is relatively new there are no hard and fast rules for managing your child’s iPad usage. We have tried to figure it out as we have gone along, but finding quality apps is always a challenge. It is a challenge because you want to find something interative and can teach you something instead of just mindless drivel. She is now 2.5 and now these are her favorites that we totally approve.

As a result here are our recommendations for Apps

Endless Alphabet – This is a fantastic app for increasing your child’s vocabulary and getting them to start spelling and sounding out letters. Download Endless Alphabet

Peppa Pig – While this is not limited to just the web it is a great show that has been adapted for countless languages.

It is a great series of unique songs, very friendly and catchy. I still can’t get the Dinosaur stop song out of my head.
