Modern children can use educational applications from an early age. They know how to use a smartphone or tablet and can open their favorite applications before they master the ABC book.
There are a sea of apps available for mobile platforms, but not all of them are suitable for children. For example, many are only available for money, and although purchases in Google Play and AppStore were “disabled” in Russia in 2022, the annoying requests to “buy it” can irritate many parents.
To keep you calm and your son or daughter busy with something useful and interesting without leaving their gadget, I have compiled a top 10 best apps for children, based on recommendations from DNS experts, Tinkoff Magazine and the app rating on Google Play. If a link does not open on your computer, I suggest you use a VPN.
10. Cut the Rope 2
The top apps for children opens with a funny game about the adventures of a little green glutton Om Nom. He is eager to collect candies, and the player's task is to provide Om Nom with sweets, leading him through different levels, from the forest, river and city to a car dump.
From level to level, it becomes more and more difficult to cut the ropes on which the candies swing, but valuable prizes are given for this. A fun and cheerful game, available on iOS and Android, develops fine motor skills, reaction, spatial thinking in children and teaches the ability to build logical chains.
9. Skazbuka games for kids
One of the best educational apps for preschoolers – developed with the participation of psychologists and pediatricians, “speaks” Russian, and does not contain advertising. “Skazbuka” will introduce children to the alphabet, sizes, shapes and colors. And will also help to learn the basics of reading and counting.
There are creative games - coloring, creating an island, etc. To prevent the child from sitting at the game for too long, there is a time limit in "Skazbuka". There is paid content, but there are also free tasks.
8. Line Puzzle
Among the best games-apps for children, Line Puzzle stands out for its colorfulness and simplicity. This is an app for a smartphone or tablet, in which you need to repeat a drawing according to a sample. And to do this, you will have to stretch the rope and fix it at the right points. Moreover, at some points the rope is already fixed, and the child will need to think carefully about how to get around this obstacle.
7. Astronomy and Space for Kids
Seventh place in the rating of applications for children I give to space "for the little ones". In an accessible and easy form, the child will be told about constellations, planets and other celestial objects, the structure of the solar system, as well as the Hubble telescope and the ISS. There is even a quiz.
The drawings are bright and beautiful, and many users write that this application will be interesting not only for preschoolers, but also for teenagers.
6. Fixies
This is not one game, but a whole set of the best Android apps for children. It has a math game in which children learn to count together with the characters from the cartoon Fixies, and a confectionery factory for developing fine motor skills and aesthetic taste, a game for learning English, adventure and competitive games, and several others.
There is also paid content, unfortunately, most of the best apps for children cannot do without it.

4. Baby Games: learn, 2+ year old kid
Among the best free apps for kids, this software stands out with a high user rating of 4.8 out of 5 possible points. It is exciting, intuitive, and consists of several tasks:
- puzzles,
- adding a picture to the desired area of the drawing,
- arrangement of geometric figures, etc.
All graphic elements are large, big, easy to hit. The menu and voice acting are in English, but don't let that stop you from installing the program - the entire gameplay is clear without words. But there are no ads, and you don't have to worry about your child clicking somewhere wrong. And you don't have to buy anything, the game is definitely free.
3. Buddy.ai: English for Kids
It is one of the best English learning apps for kids thanks to its user-friendly interface and voice assistant – the robot Buddy. With it, the child will be able to learn a thousand of the most important English words and learn their correct pronunciation.
To control and consolidate knowledge, the Buddy robot will show videos to the young student. Please note: the application is paid, to pay for a subscription you need to go to the Telegram bot. And sometimes Buddy becomes "hard of hearing", poorly distinguishes what the child says to him. But apart from these shortcomings, there are no shortcomings in the software.
2. Learn English: Speak LuvLingua
Perhaps the best English language app for children. Designed primarily for beginners, it can work on a device without Internet access, and you can learn new words with the help of games and quizzes. The pronunciation of each letter is clear and distinct, the pictures are bright - just what a beginner needs.
There is a lot of free material in LuvLingua, although there is also paid content. Plus, the program takes up little space on your smartphone, so you won’t have to choose what to delete instead of LuvLingua.
1. Sea of Words: Find the Words
The rating of the best applications for a child's phone is headed by a program that can work without the Internet and does not require payment for its content. With the help of "Sea of Words", a child will develop his vocabulary in a playful way, learn many interesting facts about the inhabitants of the sea, will be able to read more consciously and learn to correctly write words that are difficult for a primary school student to understand.
For their efforts, the child will receive prizes, which will serve as additional motivation for learning.
