What are the best iPad apps for kids?

Hello!

My kids (almost 3 and almost 5) love to use our iPad mini whenever they are allowed. We have downloaded a few free games that they love, but are keen for some new ones. We are looking for some recommendations for good (age appropriate) games/apps for kids that are either free or inexpensive (happy to pay for them if they are worthwhile). Looking for fun ones as well as education games – my kids love counting, ABCs, puzzles and shape/word recognition type games…
Thanks in advance!!!!

We only do free apps. Just go to play store and type up a theme like puzzles for 3-5 yr old, alphabet songs & rhymes, drawing & tracing apps, side words counting from 1-10, farm animals, preschool activities, the possibilities are plentyful. Kidloland has some nice stuff too

Pretty sure you go somewhere online and check out all the apps. Might be worth a look

I always download the free trial versions first and make sure the kids enjoy it. Then if they like it enough, will buy the paid versions. I usually go with the App Store suggestions!

I suggest you try out some of the free apps and see if they like them-try before you buy!
