Best Apps for K (Ages 5-6)


Discovery: Faces iMake

Still one of the best creative play apps on the market. Faces iMake gives kids all kinds of everyday items to integrate into artful masterpieces.



Language: Reading Raven

Reading Raven is the complete “get ready to read” app for kids. Game play is motivating, and the literacy practice meaningful. A must have app for kids on the road to reading.


Math: Montessori Geometry

What makes Montessori Geometry magical is a seemingly endless amount of shape play for kids. Includes simple 1 and 2 player games, real life application of shapes and 3D models that let kids play with a digital shape.

World: Alien Assignment

From the Fred Roger’s Center, Alien Assignment is one of a kind. Kids use the device’s camera to capture pictures that fit in given categories to help a family of aliens fix their ship. Parents join in the fun too! The app sends the child to find a “grown up” to make sure the pictures they took belong in each category.
