Toddlers and iphones???

I was reluctant to let Madame play with my new iphone as she was already facing a life in front of screens, I didn’t realise there was any educational merit and I was sure she would damage it. Boy was I wrong. I’ve only downloaded a couple of toddler apps ‘iGoTo Farm’, ‘Shapes’, ‘Baby Piano’ and ‘Wheels on the Bus’ but have been truly impressed. She knows her basic shapes, even though she doesn’t demonstrate it in this clip, but within seconds she learned crescent, oval and hexagon!

Do you have any other recommendations for Toddler iphone Apps, preferably free?

For those of you worrying, that Madame will spend hours of endless time on it, you don’t need to as she’s just gone out for a long bike ride with her dad! I’m a strong believer of anything in moderation, except for red wine of course! ;-)

I'm surprised you let go of it long enough for Madam to have a go

Peekaboo barn is good. iCarly is a great laugh. There is an incy wincy spider and a wheels on the bus and a Old McDonald from the same company (Can't remember the name now! Something to do with Duck and Moose??). I also found that the drawing apps are great fun for them. My little one now has my iPod Touch. She's been able to unlock it since she could control her arms!

Toddlergirl is obsessed with Daddy's iphone (I don't let her at mine) – we have a spelling game (cat?) and she likes watching videos on it (we downloaded Curious George for holiday watching)nnIncredibly she can get into it without any trouble and has been able to since about 18 months

I was amazed how she navigates through the apps. Videos are going to be a godsend in the summer when we have a 10 hour flight to Canada!
