If you're going to give your kid a tablet so you can drink your coffee in peace, this is the app you want them on. It is the gold standard for educational apps right now.

Unlike the endless void of YouTube Kids, Tappity has a beginning, an end, and a purpose. It’s expensive compared to free apps, but you’re paying for the lack of ads and the fact that your kid's brain is actually growing while they use it. Haley is a gem, the production value is high, and it manages to make 'learning' feel like a privilege rather than a chore.
