HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities Review + Giveaway!

If you are looking for best educational apps for kids then today I want to introduce our recent finding. Past few weeks we tried HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities App and we really like the activities that suit for kids to enhance their knowledge and logical thinking.

Screen time is one of the popular buzz among many parents. However as a mom who gets the maximum benefits of educational videos and educational apps for kids, I know we can easily control the screen time if we follow a routine from the beginning. Instead of denying the benefits which educational apps can give to your kids, it is always a good idea to allow kids to use apps with guidance.

With our recent experience with HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities app, which is one of the best kids apps, I want to share this review post because this may help you to decide on best apps for kids.

HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities – Introduction

HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities comes with 20 nursery rhymes and activities which can keep kids entertained while enhancing their skills. As an app combined both fun and learning together, this educational app is created by a team of well experienced professionals of the field including child psychologists.

Features of HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities

Games include puzzles, dress matching, maze and more activities which encourage kids to improve their logical thinking.

Colourful and attractive visuals that keep kids engaged.

HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities Review with our experience

This app is suitable for kids from toddlers to preschoolers. My son who is a toddler and who is a fan of Hooplakidz YouTube channel loves the app because he is also in love with the characters Annie, Ben and Mango. He loves to play with his friends Annie, Ben and Mango through this app.

As I always watch what he is doing and the benefits of the programme before introducing anything to my kid, I found this HooplaKidz Nursery Rhyme Activities app is one of the best apps for toddlers which encourages them to learn. Activities are really educational and good way to teach how to solve puzzles or how to solve a maze before they learn to write.

I remember we did such activities at our junior grades. However, at the time we did such learning activities, we were schooling and we could write. But, now as a toddler, my son knows how to do such activities before he is skilled enough with writing. That is one of the biggest advantage for me, because now I know introducing activity books for him is easier for me as he knows how to solve such puzzles and activities. And in my side, I didn’t want to spend time on teaching him how to solve or how to engage with these educational activities. He self-learned while singing and playing with nursery rhymes.

After all, I really recommend using this app. See how your little ones improve with their ability of doing activities such as matching, solving maze and puzzles!

4 Apps Better than Pokemon Go

24 07 , 2016 No Comments

Sometimes parents worry about screen time of their kids. But, it is not always true. Instead of preventing or controlling screen time of your kids, you can use that time for educating them. With lot of available fun apps, you can easily teach your kids. As using games or other educational apps are really fun for kids, they will be more concentrate on what they do. That is really a pretty good chance to teach them new words, phonics or even other knowledge which are helpful for them to improve their skills.

Whether you love it or hate it – or don’t know what it is – Pokemon Go is one of the most popular apps in the world right now. Here are some alternatives created intentionally to foster learning, making them a truly worthwhile time investment. For fun, and since Pokemon’s from Japan, I’ll count the 4 apps in Japanese – Ichi, Ni, San, Go!

Ichi (One):Improve reading skills with the Hooked on Phonics App

Love Hooked on Phonics at much as I do?

They’ve really brought this time-honored system to the 21st century with this amazing app. It has educational games to keep kids engaged at home or on the phone anywhere. I love that it syncs children’s progress to all devices – so if dad is on the road he’s up to speed on the kids’ progress, and if you don’t have the iPad around, you can just download the app, sign in, and have the kids pick up right where they left off. Seamless.

Great for: Ages 2-8

Cost: For a limited time, $29.99 (Save $20)

Ni (Two):Have story time anywhere with the FarFaria App

Apps Better than Pokemon Go

I like this app because kids can read quietly and be entertained wherever they are. It also gives the entire family access to thousands of books on an iPad, kindle, phone, etc, so there are options for all ages! Turn screen time into story time with this “Netflix for Children’s Books” app. It’s great to be able to save books to the app so they can be read offline anywhere! For example, in a home office, at the park, in the car, and of course at bedtime.

Great for: Ages 2-9

Cost: For a limited time, $19.99 (Save $20!)

San (Three): Learn coding skills with the browser-based Learn to Mod program

Do your kids love video games and winning badges? Use that to get them coding! The Learn to Mod program is a browser-based software that teaches kids how to “mod” Minecraft with both Blockly and Javascript (neither of which I understand, but there you have it). The program includes hundreds of video lessons, puzzles, and quizzes that get kids learning this impressive skill while having fun. The cool badges keep them coming back for more, and even pique mom’s interest. 🙂

Great for Ages 7-13, girls too!

Cost: $29.99

Go! (Four): Need help with homework help? Use the GradeSlam app and ask a tutor!

Apps Better than Pokemon Go

Does your high schooler need help in a particular subject? Are you strapped for time to help with homework? There’s an app for that! GradeSlam provides 24/7 tutoring in all subjects to students in middle and high school, as well as college. With their award winning chat-based tutoring platform, your kids can access tutors anytime they (or you) need. This is a perfect supplement for subject matter beyond your scope, busy spells, and for when kids head off to college. For anyone gearing up their juniors for college entrance testing, this is a no – brainer.

Great for: upper school to college ages, tougher subjects

Cost: For a limited time, get a whole year for $99 (save $81!)

I hope I’ve expanded your digital horizons beyond Pokemon today! What apps do you and your family use? Comment below and share the knowledge!

Kidloland – Educational App for Kids #Review

01 06 , 2016 6 Comments

These days my son is very happy and excited because of the new app he is using. Actually most parents try to limit the screen time of their kids, but I used apps and other educational programs for kids when he was very young. Today I am happy about my decision of introducing him those educational programs when he was just few months old. Of course I always controlled his time with such programs and used such programs in positive ways. As a first time mom I also didn’t have much experience in educating kids, but the educational programs helped me to teach our son.

I am always proud to say that when my son was around 1 year old and when he just started talking, he could sing A, B, C, D song. I know I didn’t teach him or I didn’t spend my time teaching him such songs. I didn’t force him to learn anything. Instead I played educational songs during day time. Sometimes he watched those and sometimes those songs were playing in background while we were busy with activities. So, screen time is self-controlled.

This is still same at our home, only I try to find age appropriate apps and videos for him.

I received Kidloland app at the right time when I was looking for some advanced programs as my son is also bit bored with basic colours, ABCD and shapes. I understood he wants bit more advanced programs or I need to teach him considering his learning level. He also learns basic shapes and colors from his playgroup classes. So, he is little bit bored!

Kidloland App could win his heart and it is a new experience for him. Yes, the secret is; so far I used desktop for playing educational songs. This is to avoid him using my phone because you know how kids can be addicted.

Well, before going into further details of our experiences, let me introduce the Kidloland App.

Kidloland Educational App for kids

Kidloland is an educational app for toddlers and young kids below 6 years old which includes lot of nursery songs and activities. It includes over 240+ interactive nursery rhymes, songs and 100+ educational activities.

Our experience with Kidloland app (Kidloland app review)

As I said above my son loves this app. He loves most because he doesn’t want to seek my help to change the songs or activities. Instead he spends his own time changing songs and activities. It is bit relax for me too.I also happy to see when he is independent.

The colourful screens and beautiful songs are really attractive and keep him engaged. We found ABC songs, vegetables, shapes and 1-10 counting songs which are suitable for kids including very young babies who are in their early education.

For my son, he loves to watch new lessons for him such as names of insects, animals and birds. He also started watching counting songs from 10-20.Other than songs, he loves to play activities such as connecting dots and solving puzzles.These are new activities for him and I am happy to see he learns new words such as insects and birds which he didn’t know before.

I am really happy because I could introduce him some advanced educational program at the time he was bored with alphabet and basic colours. However this doesn’t mean that Kidloland is not suitable for very young children who are beginning to learn. You can easily select the songs and activities which are appropriate for your kid as there are lot of songs and activities available.
