My kids are a wee bit older. They get a kick out of meeting with friends in Minecraft and Fortnite. It's nice because both have crossplay, so I can join them from my gaming PC.
Make sure you ratchet down the parental controls on whatever platforms they access games like Fortnite or Roblox on. One thing I didn’t realize about PlayStation 5 is that people who aren’t on your friends list can send unsolicited voice chat requests.
Throwing in Khan Academy Kids if yours are like 3-7yo.
Thanks! Just downloaded it
For younger kids, Sesame Street and PBS Kids have great learning game apps that don’t collect much data. My kid also enjoyed the Lego Duplo games.
For drawing Sketchbook is good.
I'm going to check this out! Thanks!
The PBS Kids app is great and runs on iPhone / iPad / AppleTV.
Thank you!
I was a big fan of utilizing Common Sense Media when my daughter was younger. I don't think it did then, but I'm not surprised it has a free apps section now: https://www.commonsensemedia.org/lists/free-apps-for-kids
If anyone has any suggestions for apps for reading for little kids (kindergarten age) please let me know.
So far all the apps I downloaded aren't free.
I have a 5yo that started Kindergarten this year. We like the Duck Duck Moose games and now that she started school she can do the reading game. These games are free, no ads, and don't require an account.
Thank you! I'll check this out!
