New on the iPad this week

So our favorite new app this week is Toddler Teasers combo pack app. We previously just had the stand alone Shape app which both of our kids have loved. The shape app has both the quizzing function and the flash card function.  My 19 month old can whip through the quizzes so fast its amazing! I'm pretty sure I never taught him "hexagon" but he knows his hexagons!...(and crescents, rectangles, squares, triangles, ovals and circles)...The new app has only the quizzing function but it includes all 4 categories: Letter, Numbers, Colors and Shapes.  Its slightly easy for my 3 year old and the 19 month old will grow into it for the next few months but overall its a good one! Download it at iTunes HERE

What's new on our iPad...

The latest App that I've installed on our iPad was brought to my attention by the new blog Matter of App.  It is Alphatots and it is fantastic! It has been mom, dad, and kid approved.  I LOVE that it teaches the letter (both upper & lowercase), the sound, and then its example is an action word and the app has you do that action before you move on to the next letter.  My 3.5 year old loves sounding out the letter with the narrator and then eagerly awaits her related activity.

Here is the full review.
