When you’re back from a hard day’s work you will be surrounded with your dearest ones. The dearest ones will share hugs and kisses with you and after they finish this they might ask for your interesting gadgets to play with. Since you’re a good mom/dad you will have installed some nifty games on your iPhone or iPad to put a smile on your kid’s faces (and to keep them away from the apps that you’re working with).
How about we give you several good ideas of what to download if you have toddlers or teens running around your home?
1. Tic Tac Toe is something that kids (and adults) of all the ages will find interesting in every time of day or night. We all used to play this game with a piece of paper and a pen back when nobody cared about the mobile phones. It is pretty simple so it can be a good distraction for kids, even 3 years old. Graphics are really cute and the time will fly fast with this one. Let’s download this one and enjoy the silence as long as the kids are playing the game.
2. Checkers might look a bit boring but this one is created for the kids above 10 years old. It is a game that will bring the kids in the world of adults; it’s like in the real life, you have to think about your next few steps to succeed. Random moves will lead you to a fast ending. The game features great sounds, awesome graphics and a very good AI.
3. Bubble Shooter Free is something completely different compared to the first two games on this list. If you wanted to check your kids intelligence use the first 2 games, but if you want to test how much time they can spend without doing anything meaningful then use this app. It is a simple point-and-tap kind of a game where your goal is to shot the Bubbles. There is nothing more about it, its beauty is in its simplicity.
4. Sponge Bob Dinner Dash is full of colors. It’s loads of fun and the basic version comes free. Now, once you start playing you will have an option to upgrade to full (premium) version and if you like to see the huge smile on your kids face you will probably do so. What’s the story behind the game? – Sponge Bob is working in the restaurant and your job is to help him serve the guests by taking orders and delivering dishes. The bigger tip you get the faster you will move forward in the culinary world.
5. iDrapPapers with Friends is something that you’ve probably only done while using the toilettes. Or should we say after you finished using it. The point of the game is….to have fun and to enjoy! There is a toilette paper roll and you have to unroll it as fast as possible. The fastest get the price (Cocos- currency in this game). There are different backgrounds and paper patterns to choose from. Well, that’s it, this game is that simple.
6. Disney Fairies Fashion Boutique is a game made for little princesses. You will open your little boutique, prepare your summer/spring collection and show off your fashion skills. If your daughter likes to watch fashion channels and if she thinks she can take over the catwalks with her designs, give this game a try. It will take your daughter to a beautiful world of design and fashion from the safety of your home.
Besides these games there are a hundreds of other games in the app store. We just showed you that there are different styles and we selected the most popular ones. Keep browsing the app store for your kids’ wish.
