App Reviews for Educational Games

A comment alerted me to the website, iKids, and the app reviews posted there. I, like this mom, have done a lot of research in neuro science and neurodevelopment...enough to know that I do not want my child(ren) parked in front of electronic devices all day long. BUT I'm also aware of the potential benefits to some *limited* electronic time. [As we speak, it is "rest time" at our house. My 7yo is reading, writing in his journal, and spending 15 minutes playing math-related games on my iTouch. I still feel marginally guilty.]

All that to say...please check out iKids. I'm impressed with what I've seen so far. ;)

Keep the app ideas coming. On Saturday I'll be posting more reviews/suggestions.
