Top 5 Apps for Kids This Week

1. The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins

Ages 6-12Overall rating: 4.5 out of 5 starsWhy we like it: One of the joys of digital media is that you can dig up old classics that your local library probably would not have on hand. Take this 1938 Theodor Geisel (Dr. Suess) story about a king's fascination with hats. Need to know: This is one of Dr. Seuss' earlier works, with black and white illustrations. Also note that this is a rather wordy book -- better suited for middle and upper elementary age children. Ease of use: 10/10Educational: 9/10Entertaining: 8/10$3.99
