iPod touch games for kids

There are so many fantastic iPod touch games and kids' apps to choose from, including interactive story books, math and word games, coloring, dot to dot, memory and matching games!

Want iPhone games for your children?

So far, every kids' game I have found for iPod touch can also be played on iPhone, so there should be plenty of fun for everyone! But do be sure to check that the game or app you're interested in will work with your device... just in case!

As the proud new owner of an iPod touch, I'm going to tell you about the iPod touch games and apps I have found for kids. Some of them are free, others you have to purchase - or you can upgrade your free apps sometimes to the paid version to access all the features.

Do take note - not all games or apps are available everywhere around the world! Sometimes you might be interested in a game, but you'll find it's not available in your area. This occasionally happens to me, too. Never mind - there's plenty more choice - just move on to your next idea :)
