Off to bed! ★★★★☆ ($2.99 / App Store) for the iPhone and iPod Touch is and interactive visual book specifically designed to get your child to sleep. In the developer’s own words: “It is the perfect application to facilitate the parenting task of getting children to bed. Through the story the kid learns the ritual of sleep.” This app also plays pleasant and melodic background music to further enhance falling asleep as well as voice over by a human voice as well as automatic page turning (which all can be turned off), so the parent won’t even have to read.
The Elements ★★★★★ ($9.99/ App Store) for the iPhone and iPad is an interactive periodic table app. Sounds boring but once you actually use the app, you will realize how interesting the elements are even if you never cared for science. Having a massive download size of 1.21 GB, this app contains a significant amount of detail and movable element images in satisfying HD. If you can spare the space in your iPhone or iPad and have the slightest interest in science, The Elements by Theodore Gray is well worth the cost.
