Top 10 Essential Apps for Parents
We have bundled up 10 IOS apps that can be essential for everyday life. I don’t know what I would do without them, they have definitely helped me out of jams (literally traffic jams), reminded me of scheduled appointments my alarm was suppose to do, made work breaks more productive and entertaining, helped me out many times with my indecisiveness, and much more. Hopefully our list will help make life easier with just a download.

 

 

Tynker for School- Learn to Code is Free for a Limited Time!! (Save $5.99)

Welcome to Computer Science Week! In celebration of this week, Tynker for school, the full version, is free! What a wonderful app to get kids interested in coding. Perfect for both for use at home and use in the classroom, coding apps do not get better than this. Can your kids code Sphero so that it does not fall off a stack of blocks? Can they help a dragon walk, eat a firefly, and breath fire to remove an obstacle to get to gold? The possibilities are truly endless with Tynker, especially once kids master the basics of visual programming through the amazing variety of puzzles.

Let Kids Build to New Heights- Dr. Panda's New App, Hoopa City 2, is Here!

Hoopa City 2 is out, and it is everything you could have hoped for and so much more! Hoopa City 2 is an amazing 3-dimensional building app, in which kids needs to figure out the combinations of buttons to tap to build what they are looking for. The graphics are phenomenal, with a night mode, exciting and new buildings to unlock, and characters that interact with everything you build. They swim in the lakes, eat and sleep in the houses, get married at city hall, and so on. This is a must have new app!

Best Minecraft apps for your obsessed kid!

Dear daughter: I know you find this hard to believe, but there are apps out there that you would enjoy that are NOT related to Minecraft. What? What's that you say? You have no interest in anything that's unrelated to Minecraft? Such as dinner or the dog or YOUR MOTHER? Sigh. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. 

If your kid, like mine, is completely obsessed with all things Minecraft, here's a list of apps he or she might find interesting. And if you have yet to introduce your kid to this addictive and educational game, start with the Pocket Edition and then jump head-first into the Minecraft well. Be warned: it's deep. VERY deep. And a bit on the expensive side -- most of these apps have an up-front price, as well as in-app purchases for extras. But what price peace and quiet?

Top App for Therapy: Create custom activities with iESLp!

 

Bottom Line: This app is perfect for those who like to use the iPad to create materials for therapy. It requires a good amount of input from the user, though — don’t expect to sit down in a session without having prepared in advance for specific goals and objectives. But for those who want to integrate technology into teaching/therapy, iESLp is a creative approach with an incredible number of customization options.
