App Went FREE: Multi-Lingual – Mr.Wolf and the Ginger Cupcakes post image

Here is another FREE book app for you. What I like the most about this app is the option to choose among 7 languages, and each is read and written professionally.

There are so many free games out there. But be aware — a free app can actually cost you $100 or more! How? by in-app purchases!

While they’re free to download, they offer incentives within the app to buy things that cost REAL money. Things you can buy: furniture for the house, outfit… Read more

I have a 9-year-old boy.  Since he got the iPad (more accurately, since I got the iPad), it became one of his favorite toys.  He found so many games in the App Store.   A lot of them are free!  Recently I played with him on couple of his games.  They are actually fun, and educational.  I realized this is such a good tool for the kids to learn.  I did some search online on iPAD games for kids.  There are not many sources of info… Read more
