These are playful learning journeys that allow for the exploration of various topics. Joy in learning allows our children to become like sponges, absorbing all that excellent information.

Why Multi-Educational Apps?

This past school year, we used different apps to help support our son's Kindergarten learning through interactive and fun techniques. We have found that these educational apps helped engage our son through customization, increasing difficulty levels, and reward-based systems. Some of the apps we had previously downloaded and enjoyed, some were newly found apps that we had just started using.

Below is a list of the apps we like that cover multiple different educational topics.

Most of these apps are free, but some are subscription-base or purchase-base. An excellent way to lower the cost is by being gifted with these as presents. Great not only for your child’s education but helps create a minimal lifestyle.

What do we do before clicking download?

1. We understand our son’s learning style.
2. We do our research on the app and the seller.
3. We play the apps with our son to engage and reflect on activities.
4. We try to see what supports our school’s curriculum and supplement additional learning opportunities.
