Apps for Kids 011: Bag It!

Apps for Kids is Boing Boing's podcast about cool smartphone apps for kids and parents. My co-host is my 8-year-old daughter, Jane Frauenfelder.

In this week's episode Jane and I talk about Bag It, a puzzle game where you are challenged to bag grocery items without damaging them. Bag It! is 2.99 in the iTunes store and $1.99 in the Android Market. It's also available for $2.99 as a Barnes & Noble Nook app.

If you're an app developer and would like to have Jane and I try one of your apps for possible review, email a redeem code to appsforkids@boingboing.net.

This was the free app of the day in the Amazon app store a few days ago. :-)

I like it. Not sure I’d categorize it as an app for kids, it’s just a nice little puzzler. Maybe I shouldn’t be so pleased I’ve completed it now.
