If you have children, you appreciate entertainment that appeals to kids and grownups at the same time. After all, if you have to sit through a movie, and pay full price, you might as well enjoy it too, on your own level. The Penguins of Madagascar: Read & Play is an app (iPad only folks) that I found amusing as did my kids who are fans of the Nickelodeon show of the same name, based on those funny penguins and lemurs from the Madagascar movies.

If you are a parent who loves to read to your kids or simply want your child to fall in love with reading, there are incredible apps developed for this. Based on the high demand for virtual books; My Grandma Reads Me Books App is definitely fitting the profile as one of the top featured. The choices and options can keep a child busy all day with an additional effect on learning the love for reading. The main page gives all of the choices including a virtual reading of the book named after the app. However, other options include a virtual coloring book, mazes, and even a recording technique to record your voice narrating the same book.
Other books for iPad that may also entice your kids are Misty Island Rescue and Cozmo's Day Off. The developers of Misty Island Rescue did a superb job of turning this Thomas & Friends story into an iPad app. Unlike other apps where developers have cut out pieces of the original artwork and then applied some very cheesy animations to them, this app was done right. The illustrations are beautiful and true to the original story. The animations are unique, smooth, and very natural looking. No cut, paste and animate here. On every page, there's something new to entertain the reader: eyes blinking, smoke puffing, and a helicopter flying across the screen. When the reader touches an object, he or she hears realistic sound effects such as a flock of geese honking, rocks crashing, or a foghorn blasting out a warning to the ships.
Cozmo's Day Off demonstrates that Ayars Animation knows what kids like. It features awesome graphics, interesting sound effects and fun interactions, making it enjoyable for both children and parents.
