Silly Apps for April Fool’s Day

Happy April Fool’s Day! This is a holiday that I usually let pass by without much celebration. But this year my kids are home for Spring Break and they’re old enough to enjoy some foolery. Thanks to www.familyfun.com I’ve actually got a few simple tricks up my sleeve. In honor of the day I’ve decided to spotlight some of my family’s current favorite silly apps. What silly apps are on your iPhone/iPod Touch?

Doodle Jump  - Confession time, I stink at this game. But my kids and husband all LOVE it. So do a lot of people…I think I’m going to ask the 5 year old for some Doodle Jump tips because I’m feeling a bit left out.

Fly Kiwi Fly – I bought this several weeks ago and have been meaning to do a full review. Hopefully I’ll find the time soon. Kiwi is trying to fly to the space shuttle and it’s your job to help him get there. Along the way you collect money and purchase things (like gliders, pogo sticks and roller blades) to help you along the way. My kids get a kick out this game.

Elmo’s Monster Maker – Silly monster magic that even my ten year old enjoys.

Wee Mee Avatar Creator – If I were to show you the Mees that my girls have created for our family members you’d agree this app has TONS of silly potential.

Plants Vs. Zombies – Also an app that I purchased several weeks ago with the hopes of doing a full review.  You’ve got to grow plants in your front yard to prevent a zombie invasion. I enjoy the app even though I’m not a very good player, I can’t seem to keep those zombies off the grass.  The rest of my family likes this one a bunch.

iChalky – My kids go back to this app time and time again. Now you can have more than one figure on the screen.

Gello Doodle – My 10 year old’s current favorite app. Slurp, slurp.

Cooking Dash - Still one of my favorite time killer apps.
