Cool games for kids | The 4 best iPhone and iPad games for kids
Kids are always learning, grabbing, and playing with things, and chances are this includes your iPhone or iPad. While there are plenty of different physical items you can buy your Kids for your iPhone or iPad, there are also plenty of games on the App Store that can help your kids learn or keep them entertained.
“Kids” is a bit of a broad term and a 10-year-old will likely find little interest in a game that’s better suited to a 3-year-old. I plan on breaking down my selections of the best games for kids into age groups to use as a guideline (not a strict rule because all kids are different).
Farm 123
Farm 123 is another award-winning educational game that helps your child learn how to count.
By counting along with the Cool games for kids, your kid will earn stars and move up “levels” to count different animals.
Its fun, bright, and simple animations will captivate your child, and the positive reinforcement will help keep them coming back to count more.
Disney Crossy Road
A Disney twist on the super popular Crossy Road is a little easier that the normal Cool games for kids because it’s geared more towards children.
Your kids can escort their favorite Disney (and Pixar) characters across the road and get them safely to the other side. Playing as Wreck-It-Ralph, Sully, or even Buzz Lightyear is bound to put a smile on any kid’s face who loves the popular animated movies Disney and Pixar produce.
Busy Shapes
Busy Shapes is an award-winning puzzle game specifically designed for young children.
By moving different colored shapes into the various colored holes, kids are learning problem-solving skills as the play around. The game gives positive encouragement throughout, and its bright colors keep kids attentive and having fun.
Busy Shapes also knows that toddlers will often be touching the screen in some way, so there’s no menus or buttons they can accidentally activate while playing.
Kidzongs
While it’s not technically a game, Kidzongs will sing to your child and help them learn classic, simple songs.
You can choose to have the app sing, or when your children are a bit older, they can decide to sing along to the music. All the lyrics show up on the screen to help them along, so they shouldn’t feel lost.
All the songs are done acoustically and shouldn’t leave your child with any extra adrenaline, perfect for a little sing-song time before bed.
