Parents Magazine launches another app meant to assist parents in their daily chores as far as child care and development is concerned with the release of the iPlay ‘n Learn iPhone app. The app features quizzes, training programs and flash cards for child development concerns. This should be a great alternative towards the familiar ways we try to evolve the aptitude and learning stages of our toddlers before setting them out to actual educational groups.

Audio messages and exciting animations such as exploding fireworks, chugging trains, and skyward-bound rocket ships keep kids engaged and deliver positive reinforcement.

The iPlay ‘n Learn application is now available for download at the iTunes app store for $0.99.
