I don’t like frogs. Their color, their skin texture, their eating habits – all a little creepy I think. I even had a tough time watching the frogs in the Princess and the Frog movie. It was something about the way they would walk on two legs that bothered me. If I ever met a [...]

The Word Chase is an easy to learn game that lets you play with words. The game gives you three different words and several letters in a column on the side of the screen. You need to take one letter from the column and use it to replace a letter in a word, which then [...]

I’ve gotten word that three new friends have moved into the Peekaboo Barn. Rabbit, Mouse and Chicken have come to join the party. If you already own the app then you can invite them into your barn with a free update. To celebrate the new friend’s arrival Peekaboo Barn has given me FIVE promo codes [...]

A few weeks ago I reviewed the PBS Kids Super Why! app for the iPhone/iPod Touch. It’s been released again in iPad format. If you already own the iPhone app you can put that version on your iPad and it will work. You can play it at normal iPhone size (it’ll be in the middle [...]

When I heard the idea behind this game I was intrigued. The Well takes music off your iPod and creates a 3D maze (that’s the best way I can describe it) for you to navigate. As the music plays a box falls down the screen. You need to tap on the screen to steer the [...]

Maybe I should quit boiling my eggs now…. Price when Reviewed: FREE through [...]

You’re trying to be the first one to get rid of all your cards, including those in your “pounce” pile. The app has a nice tutorial that walks you [...]

Alien Equation is a math app that really works your brain. Once I figured out how to play it I actually enjoyed it (math, me??) but it took me a little bit to realize what I was supposed to do. I like this app but if I’ve got one suggestion it’s to include some instructions [...]

I’ve mentioned in the past (a few times) about the need for an iPhone wrist strap. Here’s another app that makes me hope my kids never use it when they’ve got sweaty palms. Goodbye phone. Jump Jump is aptly named because that’s what you’re going to be doing. You play the game by listening to [...]

Disclosure is a word puzzle app. It’s sort of like Wheel of Fortune but without the wheel. And Vanna. The game comes in four different editions – Classic, Kids, Our World and Art. Each edition has different categories. You select one to begin and are given a title, phrase, word…something that you have to guess. [...]
