Montessori Crosswords App Review

When we were choosing the person from the iPad Kids Team, we all knew who it was going to be. ME! This decision was so easy because I used to go to the Montessori School. Well, back to the app, this app is very simple and easy, i would say its for toddlers around the age of 4-5. You can pick the different level of crossword you want to play, 1 word. 2 words, or 3 words. You may also pick the Movable alphabet button. We all know that little kids are a wee bit clumsy, so they might [ ... ]

StoryChimes – iPadKids double review!!

Yeah… so I realize that I didn’t do a post yesterday… but I had a LOT of homework. I mean, it’s the first day, you’d think that they would go easy on us but noooo. I don’t know what I was thinking when I signed up for AP Stats and AP Calculus… Anyway, that doesn’t matter right now. I figured to make up for it, I could do a double review of two StoryChimes books. The two I’m reviewing are Three Little Pigs and The Princess and the Pea. They have 28 books available in the app store, all added up. [ ... ]

Minion Mania game app and Twinkie cakes

This is a fun game. The Minions from Despicable Me are really cool. look at the tray of Twinkies made into little minions. ROFL. The app i am telling you about is 20 levels and u show a Minion to the exit. It is $6.99 so it is expensive. Only buy it is u like Minions. It is a good game and the levels get harder.

Try to dodge the dots, but this game hit the target!

Dodgedot has a fairly simple idea:  drag the colored dots to their corresponding colored bar. Easy, right? Here’s the catch, though (there always is) the dots can’t touch each other. HOLY FLIPPIN COW!!! This game is SO hard.  Given, I’m no amazing gamer; my scores never make it onto the scoreboard for pretty much any game no matter what, but this is really really really hard. Aside from the fact that seemingly simple tasks can be reallllly hard (minute to win it, anyone? I love that show!), it makes it even harder when sometimes the levels start with the dots on [ ... ]

iPad Book – The Grouchies

This is a cute book for little kids who are grouchy and grumpy and don’t want to be nice.  The book itself is cute, but rather than getting to turn pages and stuff, you just kind of slide them, not really turn them. And it works, I guess, but I am really a fan of the page-turning. That’s okay though. The story is about a little boy who wakes up with the grouchies. (The mean little storm clouds with frowny faces) and they tell him “Grouch and grump at everyone you meat throughout the day. Don’t be nice to anyone [ ... ]

Doodle Buddy is my best friend while babysitting

So I have a summer job and all, but I also babysit on a regular basis, because I love kids and it actually pays more per hour than my “real job.” But I’m not going to lie and say that’s it’s easy, especially when I’m babysitting siblings. It’s like they think that since I’m not their parents, they can just be super difficult… But the thing is that they’re so ADORABLE so I’m okay with it. And yesterday was the first day that I brought my iPad with me. Was I slightly nervous? Oh, yes. As I was [ ... ]

Interactive Alphabet: Z is best says The iPad Kids

interactive means you can touch the iPad and the letter are said outloud. You can also move things like the zipper. Our neighbor’s two little kids liked it when they did that. The Robot is good. But the Z is best because every kid likes to play with zippers. It is neat how they work and go together and come apart. I think kids who are in Pre-K and K will like this app and they will learn stuff too. The app is $2.99 here and on sale for a little bit so if you want it [ ... ]

Quick, possibly limited time offer!!! CineXPlayer

Ok, so we all know Apple, and how they are very particular about the kinds of apps they allow. Does anyone remember MiTube? A youtube app that allowed you to download the youtube videos to your iPad? Apple had originally allowed that and put it in the app store, but once they realized what it was really for, they took it out of the app store. But those of us who had been lucky enough to have already downloaded it still have it on our iPads, other people just can’t buy it any more. To be totally honest, I’m kind of [ ... ]

Photoshop on the iPad is ahead of PhotoPad

So I think this Photoshop app is just a little bit ahead of PhotoPad. You can do a lot more, and you can control it too. They’re both free, though. You can crop straighten, rotate, or flip. You can change the amount of exposure, color saturation, tint, contrast, or make it black and white. You can make it look sketchy, have a soft focus, or sharpen it. You can choose from the folloing effects too: vibrant, pop (with the four color tints, one in each corner… you know what I’m talking about, right?), vignette blur (where it blurs around the [ ... ]

Toy Story Read-Along: LOVE IT

Ahhhh…. Disney. I love Disney classics! (Although I do have to say… Phineas and Ferb=awesome ;D) I can still remember being a tiny little girl and crying at Toy Story, and even though I haven’t seen it yet, I’ve heard that I’ll probably be a big girl crying at Toy Story 3. So when I saw that Disney had made a Toy Story read-along that was free… well, who could resist it? I love this book, the drawings don’t look like the original movie, they’re more pastel-ish than cartoon-ish, but I really really like them. They’re beautiful. And they have [ ... ]

Top Free iPad game is… Solitaire??

Solitaire, yeah. That is the number one top free iPad app in the game category. I think that’s kind of strange of all the games out there to download, solitaire is the most often downloaded. I’m not saying solitaire is not fun (because it is), or that it’s stupid to download it (because if I was saying that I would be such a filthy little hypocrite…), it’s just… idk. It seems like there would be some super awesome original iPad game on the top. I guess this just goes to show you how old and traditional games are still popular [ ... ]

Photopad – free photo app not the best but still cool

So I wanted to see if there were any free photo manipulation apps in the app store that were actually worth my time. Shocker, there is! It’s called PhotoPad by ZAGG. It’s pretty simple. You can do a lot of different things (color tint, make it abstract, cutout, grascale, etc) but it’s not at the level of Colorsplash (which Julia did a review of a few weeks ago) which is obviously amazing. For example, when you do a color tint, it’s all or nothing. You can’t just tint a certain part of the picture, it has to be all [ ... ]

No, Human. The Universe shall not be colonized. RAWR

Once in space, the human said: “We will colonize you, Universe!”
“Oh, really?” answered the Universe, and threw a flaming fireball towards the human!
And the Universe, who enjoys explosions, looked for more humans…
and found many.
Ohhhhh scary. Haha this is actually a pretty fun game.  Given, it’s very simple. The whole point: throw flaming asteroids at humans [...]
