With three creative apps to choose from, Montessorium brings the beauty of Montessori to your iPad or iPhone. These well designed apps — including Intro to Math, Intro to Letters and Alpha Writer — do a wonderful job of bringing the teaching methods and visual aesthetic of 100-year-old style learning to your child’s fingertips.

Providing a great way for your child to experience the world of numbers and letters through a simplistic, yet imaginative manner of learning, these apps are recommended for any future scholar from the time they first begin showing an interest in either discipline. My two-year-old is captivated by the images and is happy to trace along each digit or character, with a little help from her mama!

I also adore the overall style of these applications, including the wood grain motif and a wholly natural feel.

Available at Montessorium, $4.99 per download.

Little Pim is an absolute favorite in our household! Their educational language DVDs, music CDs, digital downloads and flash cards have been incredible tools in teaching my daughter a second and third language.

Both of my daughters are big fans of the fun and friendly panda and are always entertained and amused throughout the program. Little Pim, does an excellent job in teaching children various phrases, words and terms through visually stimulating interaction.

Julia Pimsleur Levine, mother and daughter of Dr. Paul Pimsleur (the creator of one of the most popular language teaching methods) created this excellent series along with a team of professionals. The Little Pim DVD series is the only foreign language learning product chosen for PBS Kidsplay and has won numerous awards.

Angelina Jolie uses the program to teach her daughter Shiloh, French and Constance Zimmer’s daughter Colette loves it as well.

A few days ago, the long awaited iTunes app was released and I was first online to purchase this little gem.

Little Pim’s Word Bag teaches 27 everyday vocabulary words in either Spanish or French with interactive flash cards,  entertaining and educating at the same time. The clean and clear format makes this app fun and easy to use and it is also an excellent way to keep children occupied while on the go or during a trip.

If you have an iPhone or iTouch, I highly recommend purchasing this for your children. It has become my toddler’s favorite kids app out of the 10 I have downloaded!

Price: $1.99 from iTunes. Type in “Little Pim’s Word Bag” in iTune’s search box to purchase.
