It’s designed especially for parents of young children (0-14 years old) and allows them to easily find trustworthy apps suitable for their children. WeWantApps! was setup with a user friendly interface in mind so you can easily select criteria like the age of your child, the App category, language, platform and price and by simply hitting “Search!” the App will display the results of the relevant Apps that you were looking for. Each App has been independently approved for their appropriate child-friendly content and for reaching our quality standard requirements by our dedicated and qualified team so you can be assured each and every App is truly outstanding.

With this in mind we also look to inspire parents by our daily app recommendation! This in-App recommendation is handpicked by our team so that parents will easily find the best Apps out there. The cool features don’t end there! The best thing is that you can even share your favorite Apps with other parents and see what’s most popular among them! Mark the Apps you like, view the Apps liked by others and follow users with similar interests!

We put a lot of love and effort into WeWantApps! and we truly believe it will soon be one of your most trusted and central Apps.

Today I’m bringing you some more awesome iPad apps that are geared toward 2-5 year olds (though Darah is already LOVING them at 18 months). Oscar’s Apps is a company with 3 apps and they rock! Let me tell you about the two we have been enjoying.

First is the Alphabet Song app. There are 3 ways to play this game, which involves popping bubbles with letters on them. First, you can pop the balloons that are laid out in alphabetical order. This is ideal for a younger child, like Darah, who still needs some help finding her letters. The second mode is that the balloons are all jumbled up, but the right balloon will be highlighted to help the child find it. The final mode is where the balloons are all jumbled and the right balloon will only be highlighted after the child has had a while to look for it on his/her own. Tim and I may or may not have been racing each other to see who has greater alphabet balloon popping skills. Just sayin’.

Second is 1-10 Balloons. The concept is very similar to the Alphabet Song. It involved balloons, and the three modes are pretty much the same. What I really love about this is that the person’s voice elevates a bit as the numbers go higher (which is what we do when we count to 10, if you have ever noticed!).

My understanding is that their third app, 1-20 Balloons, is exactly the same, it just has more numbers!

These apps are value-priced at .99 each, and are absolutely worth it. Check out this great video to see just how much toddlers love playing with them!
