PBS Kids’ Daniel Tiger will help your child practice important daily routines through mini-games. The four morning games will have your child dressing Daniel, helping him set the table for breakfast, brushing his teeth, and choosing a pair of shoes and tying them. The four good night games have them bathing Daniel, brushing his teeth again, putting on his pajamas, and guiding him through a bedtime story. Sing-along songs help make the routines more engaging.

Most finance apps are all cluttered up with unnecessary options and data, but not Easy Spending Expense Tracker. The app’s home screen only displays your current account balance and two buttons: Add Income and Add Expense. When adding income or an expense, you simply have to define an amount and choose a category. The amount will automatically be added to or subtracted from your total. You’re able to look back through your transaction history, and create reports from all of the data.

The 10 included games and activities will teach your child about colors, shapes, sizes, counting, and matching. The vibrant animations and upbeat music will keep them engaged for hours, and the uncluttered interface makes it easy for them to enjoy the app entirely on their own.

Merry Cubes HD provides a vibrant environment for your child to learn and play in. All they have to do is swipe across the cubes to reveal different sides and rotate two fingers to spin their faces. Once a fruity character has been reconstructed, they will begin to dance and are marked off the list at the bottom of the screen. The game includes six characters, two difficulty levels, and upbeat background music.

PirTie is a color explosion mapped onto a sphere. You’re able to swipe to move the sphere and pinch to zoom in and out. A single tap will change the colors. A double tap will change the pattern. A triple tap will capture a photo. PirTie also supports TV-out.
