iPhone Games for Kids

My little cousins and my boyfriend’s nephews like to borrow my iPhone and play games on it. But after a while, they get bored with the few amount of games I have readily available. So I checked the AppStore on my iPhone for more games and found some really good ones for their ages.

Ages 2 to 4

KidCalc — Math flash cards and counting games are a fun, exciting, and engaging way to teach math to young children using a powerful and effective reward based system.

Puzzles — With 12 different puzzles, nice sound effects, beautiful graphics, this game will entertain your children while improving their motor skills.

Balloonimals — Pretty fun virtual ballon animal game where you blow in the mic to make an animal, tap it to make it dance, then explode it by over-inflating.

Doodle — A drawing app that is perfectly between something full-featured like Brushes and simpler apps. It even offers doodle live so you can draw with your friends between iPhones.

Ages 4 to 8

Doodle Drop — A very simply yet very addicting, tilting your iPhone to guide the doodle dog drop the page and see how far you can get!

Knots — Knots is like Twister for your fingers. Colored dots pop up on the screen and you hold a finger until told to release and stop on another dot. And, just like the original Twister, the longer knots goes on the more twisted you become and the more fun you have.

LineUp — Touch groups of three or more same-colored blocks in order to get rid of them and stop the board from overflowing. A row of new blocks is added to the pile every few seconds, and the time it takes for these to be added speeds-up as the game goes on.

Booooly! — Similar to LineUp, Booooly is a game of touching and blasting 3 or more boolies of the same colors stick together. There’s more to the game if you strategize your blasts to earn more points!

Creamy Ice — Your goal is to serve tasty ice cream to your customers by tapping the correct ingredients in the right order. Manage your own ice cream business – get more flavors, bigger stores and larger orders as you play the career mode. It’s all about concentration, skill, speed and fun!

Ages 8 to 12

Cooking Mama — This popular game is now availale for the iPhone and iPod touch! The game features a generous helping of dishes from the home console series as well as plenty of never-before-seen cuisine!

CritterCrunch — You play a furry forest dweller with a long tongue, whose job is to clear the board by feeding smaller animals into larger ones. There are initially 3 sizes of animals (small, medium, large). Feeding two of the smaller ones into the larger ones causes the larger one to explode and take out any identical animals around it. Super addicting and very fun!

MASH — Its the game that all of us grew up playing! Want to find out who you or your friends will marry? Are you going to live in a beautiful, spacious mansion or a cramped, dirty shack? Your kids will enjoy playing this with each other.

LetsTans — Tangram is available on iPhone. With new puzzle modes and plenty of new levels, this game will keep your kids busy!
