Anyone here familiar with the app FarmFriends for Android. My nephew loves it so much but I couldn’t seem to find any similar app. Any suggestions?

Any parent have feedback on the following VCD?


Richard scarry's best counting video ever...and its related series.

TIA.

This is one of the first video I showed to my kids. I like it that it counts from 1 to 20. Good for kids from age 18 months. However the animation is very old fashioned. So if your kids are used to those new ones like Little Einstein etc, they will not like Richard scarry.

I highly recommend Leapfrog Talking words factory, it is the best video for learning phonics sounds. Don't need to send kids to expensive classes 😛 My kids have been watching the 5 Leapfrog DVDs for almost 2 years. Very good investment.

Now my kids are crazy over Little Einstein.

I bought 2 DVDs locally. Then bought 4 more in the Little Einsteins series from amazon. They teach a piece of classical music, introducing the composer's name, important landmarks in the world like the leaning tower of Pisa, Great wall of China, the Pyraminds of Egypt, etc, art, and even some musical notations (allegro, adagio,diminuendo, etc). Very educational.

Fortunately I show my kids Leapfrog for 2 years before showing them Little Einstein, otherwise they will not be interested in Leapfrog.

Hi,
thanks for sharing!!
i didnt explore leapfrog in amazon . and went on to purchase in tb!

I just found it at itunes and since then, they are hooked on it. As a mom, of course I want it for them because it wasn’t only entertaining, it was also educational. They also love the Futaba App. How about other moms here? What are the other apps your kids love?

Most of these have adventure/ challenge as the backdrop ie the lead characters have a prob and they need to travel/find some tools to solve the problem. while they have similar back drop, disneyclub house and backyaridgans is more toward friendship/social behaviors and Harry and dinosaurs are more imaginative. Backyardigans are more geared towards songs and dance too.

Sid, cat in hat are more towards science, discovery and general knowledge.

Wonder Pets - values like sharing, honesty, being humble, being nice to others etc

She likes Elmo and Barney as well. Hi-5 is good as well.

As i have never see either videos, can you comment the educational value or emphasis of dora and wonder pets? Eg numeracy, literacy, science, foreign languages (Spanish for Dora?), moral values, history, geography, etc.

Thanks.

Can you please share any fun and educational dvds for young kids.

I found these games suitable for young children as they get to learn something from the these applications. They are pretty interesting and attractive to my kids.


The first game is TotsWorld,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVXZ0ZJKL_M&feature=player_embedded. Children could learn the objects that they see in their daily lives.
This application is great but the only bad thing about it is that it is only available on ipad.

The second game that my kids also love is Matching Jobs, which allows the kids to learn about different occuptions while having fun playing the game. This cost $0.99 and is available on both ipad and iphone. Its definitley worth the price.

Strongly recommend these iphone and ipad games. And is there any other games that you all recommend since the kids nowadays love to play on ipad/iphone?

Has anyone found any good iPad apps that are useful for P1 kids?

I am so amazed to see so many kinds of mind stimulation techniques are there in the market.I am actually exploring something like a educational CD roms for my kid,which he can play on laptop and learn(hopefully).A snap research suggests many names like jumpstart,arthur,A star and reading rabbit or something like that.Do you think,they are helpful and really interactive as they claim.Which one is best.Is it good to buy the whole package? Please advise

Heyya deardear07, our fellow forummer is selling some new stock over at this link.

> http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17680

Hope this helps. :celebrate:

Thanks! I bought direct frm amazon during sales instead..hehe

Btw,i borrowed wink to learn-chinese for my kids to watch...they were abit bored by it.

My younger, son watched only a while n he moved to play other toys while listening... In the end only watched twice before returning...

Whereas for leapfrog,both kids wanted to watch again n again.

I guess it varies between children... They didn't really like baby signing times n i can read too...

Shows like word world n little einstein interest them more. Maybe got storyline...lol
