Bottom Line: An app to help preschoolers learn a second language, but also useful for use in first language! Follow basic commands and learn vocabulary related to the home. Monki Home is also useful for following directions and language expansion in speech-language pathology. It's free to try, and definitely worth a download!

Categorizing is fantastic for language development. It promotes vocabulary development, word recall skills, and so much more. Designed by language experts, this simple and effective app will entertain and educate. It's truly one of the best apps around for teaching basic language skills, and it's my favorite app to use with younger elementary students to teach categorization. There's a lot of customization options, too, including choosing your categories to teach and furthering development by including subcategories. Don't miss out on saving $5 on this great app!

Bottom Line: Another amazing app from Marco Polo Learning, offering young children the opportunity to explore and change weather. It’s a great example of how kids can play and explore and still learn about weather and its changes. Play with nine different weather types, changing temperature, wind and sun levels, while interacting with cute animal characters.

Today while browsing the top charts for kids' apps (something I do regularly--occupational hazard), I found an app I'd never seen before. Wordly Wise 3000® Vocabulary Flashcards FREE really does have flashcards for 3000 words, with both text and audio definitions. Each word is used in a sentence, too (I give encomium to the developer for this feature) and the flip side of each flashcard asks a question abpout each word.
