Best Holiday Apps for Kids
Ah, Christmas Break is now here and kids everywhere are home for a long break. The words “I am Bored” have already be uttered to me more than I can count and we are only one day into this! Rather than watch TV we decided to try the Ipad to see what new games we could find. The world of apps for kids is overwhelming indeed. Thousands of good looking and interactive applications are made yearly, helping to teach your preschooler the ABCs or reading an interactive story. But still the vast majority of apps for kids are made for special holidays, like Christmas and Hanukkah.
All these apps are very good and some are educational, others are truly the best holiday apps for kids and the most popular nowadays. These apps are:
1. Santa’s World: this is a children’ s educational adventure polished in a nice and attractive app form.

3. Letters for Santa: at a small price of only $ 0.99, this app is a very creative way to discover what your child really wants for Christmas. Featuring an interactive story about Ruben who creates an invention which Santa approves, the app will allow your kid to send a virtual letter to Santa at the end of the story. The letter will be written with the finger, and this is so amazing, because your kid will be able to draw a picture instead of writing, which can prove very useful in finding what he needs.
