Twelve Top FREE iPhone/iTouch Apps for Kids According To My 6 YR Old
Our youngest son fell in love with the iPhone as soon as he realized he could do so many things with it. He got an iPhone for his 6th birthday (yeah, I know that’s a young age for such an expensive gift but it’s really no different than a Leapster, Nintendo DS, Xbox, or Playstation). A few months later his iPhone was stolen at the beach. He was heartbroken so we surprised him with the newest Apple iPod touch

September,October, & November ‘10 Winners
First off I’d like to apologize for my lack of updates as of late and for being very behind in posting our recent free baby photo contest winners. However, I do have a life outside of this website which includes homeschooling 2 kids ( one of which is chronically ill), 3 other websites, and an offline start-up photography biz that has kept me quite busy these past 2 months. I’ll share some portraits from our sessions in another post so you can see how busy my husband and I have been. Again, I am sorry and my hope is that I do not fall this far behind again.
The September, October, and November winners will be included in this post. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding as I catch up.
