Earth School

This app for iPhone/iPad is currently FREE. Designed for kids 2 – 6, it has 18 mini games for toddlers centered around the theme of Earth and its evolution. Here are some quotes from the app that will give you a feel for the content: “The universe began in a Big Bang.” /”Black Holes eat planets.” /”Ocean water originates from comets.”/The sun is about 4.5 billion years old.”/”A black hole is similar to a vacuum cleaner.”/”Life was born on Earth.”/We are composed of cells.”

The app builds vocabulary (volcano, collision, fossils, cells). Kids follow directions to complete the games: Help make the fish walk; Touch cells to help them split; Move the cloud; Touch all the eggs; Feed the dinosaur; etc. The animations & artwork in the games are appealing. The bottom line is that YOU need to decide if this app is appropriate for YOUR children as it deals with evolution vs creation.
