We’ve yet to meet a munchkin who doesn’t love the iPhone or iPad. Make the most of your little one’s screen time with these 3 apps for preschoolers, presented by Juana la Iguana.
JUANA LA IGUANA
Juana la Iguana offers interactive games in Spanish that have been designed for children up to 5 years old. Games provide elements of learning vocabulary in Spanish, cognitive concepts such as memory, numbers and letters, along with songs and videos. Click here to download.
ALPHA TOTS
This award-winning app, and a past favorite pick of ours, uses action verbs to teach kids the alphabet (B is for building) plus phonics. There are also puzzles, interactive mini-games, and a sing-a-long song built around the ABCs. The design is bright and fun, while the navigation is easy. There are no in-app purchases to worry about and no third-party ads popping up to interrupt your youngster’s good time. Click here to download.
MONKEY LUNCHBOX
This app cycles through a variety of activities such as matching, counting, finding the item that’s different, choosing the item that starts with a certain letter, and assembling a small puzzle. If a child successfully completes the tasks, the animated monkey claps his hands or does a flip. If the child makes a mistake, the monkey shakes his head. After each few activities, children can choose a sticker to add to their collection. Click here to download.
