It’s probably true that babies shouldn’t be holding expensive smartphones or tablets. They are not known for being careful with such things. However, if you’re brave, your mobile device can be a small window to a world that can entertain your kids for hours and sometimes it can even help educate them! Here are the best Android baby games.
Animal Sounds – Mandarin
[Price: Free]
Our first app is made by Fisher-Price so you know it’s from a company that’s been making kids happy for years. It’s a simple app that plays animal noises which essentially turns your mobile device into one of those wheel toys that does essentially the same thing. It’s totally free with no in app purchases so you don’t have to worry about your baby accidentally spending all of your money. Parents who have used it seem to like it. Really, most of Fisher-Prices apps seem to be really well regarded. You can find more Fisher-Price apps by clicking here.
Ant Smasher
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
Ant Smasher is a simple game where you smash ants. There isn’t much else to it, really. You smash the ants and earn points while you avoid bees. When you hit too many bees, the game will end. It doesn’t require a lot of motor skills to play so it should be good for babies (or more likely, toddlers). It’s free to play and over 90 million people currently have it!
Baby Explorer
[Price: Free]
Baby Explorer is actually 17 different games wrapped into one app that is free with no in app purchases. Among the games are things like matching pictures, puzzles, and playing with animals. There is a lot of content there to keep your baby (or toddler) busy for hours on end. Most people who have downloaded this app seem to enjoy it with only a few minor issues. If you’re looking for a lot of stuff in one place, check this out.
Baby Piano
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
Baby Piano is a simple application that is essentially what it says it is. It’s a colorful piano labeled with the various little words to identify the notes. The keys are adorned with cute little animals to further help your baby enjoy itself. A few people have had a couple of issues so do keep that in mind but otherwise it seems like a fairly straightforward app.
Color & Draw for kids
[Price: $0.99 with in app purchases]
Drawing and coloring is about as much of a classic baby past time as anything can be. Even when I was younger, I loved to draw and color even though I was bad at both. This app lets your baby draw and color which can keep him or her occupied for hours. It costs $0.99 and there are no advertisements. It has crayons, brushes, pencils, and air brushes as well as 50 illustrations that kids can color in. Kids can have a lot of fun with it!
iStoryBooks
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
iStoryBooks is a collection of classic kids stories such as Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella. Obviously you’ll have to read these stories to your kids but there is a healthy selection of stories that you can read to your kids. It’s free to use and over three million people have already used the app in the past. Eventually you may need to get a monthly subscription but we imagine your child will have moved on to bigger and better things by then.
Kids Animal Piano
[Price: Free]
As the name implies, Kids Animal Piano is a piano with animals. Here’s how it works. Kids can select an animal and the piano keys will make the animal noises in that key. They can go a step further and select a song from the top bar to hear the tunes sang by the animals of their choice. It’s sure to drive parents crazy but kids live for this kind of stuff. It’s also totally free which is a huge bonus.
Nursery Rhymes free
[Price: Free]
Nursery Rhymes is another app that is pretty much what it says it is. It’s a collection of nursery rhymes for your kids. There are actually several volumes so you’ll need to download several apps before you can get all of the nursery rhymes that this developer can offer. Thankfully most of them are free so there is that. If you want to introduce your kids to some awesome nursery rhymes, these apps are a great way to do it!
PicsArt for Kids
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
PicsArt for Kids is another coloring and drawing app that is pretty popular and pretty highly rated. It features cute illustrations and plenty of options for kids to color and draw til their heart is content. It even helps kids learn to draw by having them trace simple shapes and such. It’s also free!
Talking Tom Cat 2 Free
[Price: Free with in app purchases]
If there was ever a demographic for these ridiculous games, it’s babies. In case you don’t know, here’s how these games work. Your baby “talks” to Tom and Tom will repeat it back. This is a great way for babies to interact and especially when they’re first learning how to talk. It’s free with in app purchases but it’s intensely popular and fun for kids. It’s worth checking out.
Wrap up
It’s important to note that babies develop differently. That means some of these games may be too simple, slow, or boring for your toddler while others may be too fast and too complicated. That makes it difficult to recommend great games because there is such a wide gap. If we missed any really good Android baby games, please leave us a comment below and let us know!
