If they are still present, children won’t “go anywhere” if they tap the ads.įor information on how to use these settings on your device, see my post about Tips and Tricks for using iPads (and similar devices) with Kids.

Turn of Internet Access – Often this makes Ads disappear.

Turn off App store – this way your child will not be exposed to inappropriate Apps (images and descriptions are not always child-friendly) and can help protect from “accidental” App purchases.

Most of these Apps don’t have in-app purchases, but it is a good habit to get into. I think the unexpected iTunes bills for some unsuspecting parents can speak for themselves. If children tap a social networking link, they should land at the login page and not be able to go further (unless they know your login details.)

Make sure you have logged out of any social networking sites.

If using these Apps with children, you might want to take the following precautions: Some apps use Game Center and OpenFeint for social gaming. As for social networking, although it is fine for adults who want to compare their scores with friends, or for the developers to promote their apps, if young children are using these Apps, it is entirely inappropriate for them to be taken unwittingly into a social networking environment. While I appreciate that many developers make their Apps free and rely on advertising for income, I’d be happy to pay to remove ads from games I like.

The ones here are some of the better ones.

I think we are all familiar with these puzzles: highlight words hidden in a letter grid. This post is focussing on just one type: Word Search, a.k.a Find-a-word, Word Seek, Word Find and others. Personally, I love word games and always have some on my iPad. Playing games with words is not only fun but can help your children (and you) to practice spelling and to develop your vocabulary.
