For some reason, I really had a bee in my bonnet about the boys not having ITouches.
I think it had something to do with the cost and possibly the ability to connect to the internet, but none the less, they weren't an option for quite some time.
Until one of my brilliant children, that is definitely bound for sales someday, introduced the idea of selling their Nintendo DS systems and games to purchase said ITouch.
Well, that sounds reasonable and logical.
And I am happy to resport the ITouch hasn't been a problem at all. With firm guidelines set by Mom and Pop, parental controls, a parental passcode, and airplane mode (to turn off the wifi when needed), it's actually been nice not having to keep up with all the games as they are directly loaded onto the device. And we recently took a trip that didn't include a dvd player on an airplane and not having to deal with that at IAH security was quite delightful.
If you find yourself with a new ITouch in your home and are overwhelmed by all the app choices, take a look at the list below.
A lot are free and the rest are either .99 cents or under $5.
A lot of the apps offer a "free or lite" version for you to try it out and then you have the option to purchase the full version later. Look for those titles first.
Most of the EA games are .99 right now
I know that this list seems crazy long, but we have had ours for about 6 months and we rotate the games on and off. And some of these games were fun initially and then the boys grew tired of them. There are even some educational ones mixed in....yes, I am a former educator. Guilty as charged.

**now, most of the 'tap' games require wifi as does IRate , but most do not.
**I'm sure you noticed the abundance of boy games. Guilty. Not a lot of pink running around these parts
Do you have apps that you would recommend?
