First Grade Apps

I've had my fair share of education apps on my ipad, iphone and ipod to tell you that most of them do nothing other than entertain your kid with little learning involved.  I have one kid who just bangs the button and somehow manages to win?!?!?!  That in itself should let you know that an app isn't "educational"  it's "entertainment" and in my opinion a worthless waste of time.  So do I have app's I like?  yes...and here are today's edition:
