iPad Apps

These are some of my favorite apps, or some that are new and looked relevant/fun and had great reviews. I am sure there are a ton more but these had the best reviews for our age bracket.

Free

· Colorfy: Coloring Art Games

· Happy Color – Color by Number

· Art Games for toddlers & kids

· Draw Something Classic (this looks great as you can share and guess with friends – however – there were some complaints about the pop up ads)

· You Doodle – draw on photos

· iPastels

· Adobe Photoshop Sketch

· Watercolor Effect Oil Painting (this has great reviews and looks like tons of fun – but as with many free apps it does ask $2.99 to unlock more features – worth a trial)

· Drawing

· Doodle Mirror – Kingdom of Fun

A Small Fee

· Percolator (one of my favorite photo apps)
