This app is awesome and free. You pick what you want to bake – cookies, cupcakes, layer cakes. Then mix the batter, pour it into the pan and bake it. When its done you take it out and decorate with frosting and candies. There are about a million different choices. Then you EAT IT. Its super fun and cute. It only says “Easy-Bake” twice during the whole thing so its not even that offensive of an advertisement. He begs me to play this game all day long.

Team Umizoomi Math $6.99

Team Umizoomi is one of Asher’s favorite shows and this is a great app that he loves. It teaches counting, numbers, shapes and patterns.

Zoo Train $1.99

This was one of the first apps we bought for Asher so he’s had it over a year. He still plays with it all the time. Its got 4-5 different things you can do and they all involve trains and animals. There is puzzle games and spelling and its pretty cute.

Trucks $1.99

This was just released but the developer makes tons of apps that we really like. Asher took to this right away but if your kid isn’t so into trucks definitely check out their others. They are simple but very entertaining.

Don’s Let the Pigeon Run This App $6.99

As huge Mo Willems fans this was an instant hit. The pic above is Asher’s drawing of The Pigeon that Mo talks you through as part of the game. The app has various levels of interactivity, perfect for different ages. Asher even made up a game we play based on the stories in the app. He is super into it.
