Our Favorite iPad Apps : Grace Edition

Playtime for Grace is very different than it was for Brenna at the same age. I don't know if it's because of her visual impairment or just her personality but Grace has no use for dolls, throws the Little People, and doesn't like stuffed animals. She prefers toys with buttons, lights and especially ones that play music. She loves to play on the iPad and will smoosh her nose right up to the screen so she can see the animations. Here are a few of her favorite apps!

  • Sparkabilities -  ($4.99) This app has either flash cards or movies that introduce shapes, colors, counting and just silly noises. It's easily Grace's favorite. She'll be getting other versions of this for Christmas!
  • Peek-A-Boo Barn - (Lite Version is FREE; $1.99 for full version) The lite version of this app gives you only three animals, but the full version has thirteen. Grace loves to tap the barn to see what animal is inside and mimic their noises.
  •  Fisher Price Apps - (Most of them are FREE!) Fisher Price makes bright and colorful apps with great music that keep Grace engaged. Her absolute favorite is Storybook Rhymes Volume 2. It sings and animates her favorite song, "Row, Row, Row Your Boat".


All of these apps are available for both the iPad and iPhone.
