By ITS Education Asia

ChalkFace would like to share this article from the Huffington Post on these 5 reviewed apps to help with young children’s learning. These apps also teach soft skills including empathy and self-awareness.

The Huff post reports that several high-quality apps are available to help kindergartners start the year off right. Best of all, each has the approval of the teacher community on our site for educators, Common Sense Education. Here’s a solid “app kit” for kindergartners that includes both academic skill builders and soft-skills strengtheners.

• Khan Academy Kids - Numbers, simple addition, logic, letters, early reading and storytelling
• Epic! - Unlimited Books for Kids - Language skills, reading comprehension and love of literature
• Coral Reef by Tinybop - Ocean science, ecology and animal and plant life
• DragonBox Numbers - Number sense, basic arithmetic and number lines
• Toca Tea Party - Getting along with others, friendship building and following directions

Let us know what you think of these apps.
