If technology is more your style, consider the ChildUp Early Learning Application iCount-to-10. Just like the physical counterpart, this app will assist parents in teaching children to visually recognize numbers, count to 10 and learn the basics of addition. They’ll also discover 40 popular animals and the real sounds they make. Personally this is my favorite part of the app because when my kids ask me what sound a zebra makes there’s no possible way I could duplicate! This app makes all sorts of life-like animal noises! I like the random number “flash cards” on the app so I can quiz my kids to see if they can recognize the numbers.
All three of these products are great tools to help you prepare your child for a successful academic future. Another cool thing about these products is that they are made to educate parents as well, giving them the knowledge and tools they need to help their children develop the skills they need to succeed. Information on brain development, early learning and parenting expertise will put you on the right path towards a bright future.
The iCount-to-10 ChildUp Early Learning App is available at the Apple Online Store, via the following link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id392576571?mt=8&ls=1 .
