Getting kids to learn could be challenging. If it doesn’t deal with a television or keep their interest more than 2 minutes, then you may be out of luck. Luckily, I’m here to share some iPhone apps that work wonders for your kids. First, kids love playing with iPhones. Hey, it’s a gadget that’s bright and shiny. Need I say more. And you’ll be able to sneak some educational lessons into their brains without them knowing it. The most important task for a kid is learning how to read. So, the recommendations below will deal with helping your child learn how to read.
Here’s my top 5 “learning how to read” apps for kids:
- Words – Sample books for free to help your kids learn how to read.
- First Letters and Phonics – Get your child singing about the sounds and shapes of letters.
- Alpha Writer – Phonetic writing is the strategy here. Your kid will also learn how to read while being sidetracked with beautiful background images.
- Free Books – Access over 20,000 classic stories with big legible text and gorgeous book cover art.
- Bumblebee Touchbook – Your child can touch a word or page to hear it spoken. It’s almost like an instant teacher.
All the apps are either free or, on average, $1 each. Definitely a great iPhone support or iPad support app to buy for your child. These apps are primarily for the ages of 3 – 6, or really when your child is ready to read, or at least when Mommy or Daddy is ready to start with the reading process.
