iphone/ipad apps for children

[Hayley102]

Hi

I am looking for recommendations for apps to use with all age groups as I have been given an old ipod touch. Looking for spelling & mental maths apps for school children as well as games for all ages.

Thanks

Hello.
I dont know if you can get it on an ipod. I have it on the ipad. But i have a disney princess story telling game.
I know its mainly for girls. But its just brilliant. My daughter loves it. They get to talk into it and create a story, move the figures to help with a visual.

Its really helped my daughter speech and language and i love hearing her storys shes creates

But apart from that one ... i havent really found any suitable ones..... be good to hear what others use xx

My little girl (4)loves her daddy's ipad. Her favourite app's which are also fantastic for aiding her learning are:

Pocket Phonetics - my daughter who has just started reception aged 4 can recognise, write and say over 20 letters since we got this app in July.
iLearn with Poko by Tribal Nova - great selection of apps to help learn emotions, mixing colours, numbers, weather/seasons, nutrition/healthy eating - I have not yet bought the counting and letters one so cant recommend them yet.
