We just got an iPad yesterday. I definitely think there are some purely educational apps out there. Khan academy has a free app. There are also a lot of astronomy apps, math apps, reference apps, etc. I haven't had much of a chance to explore yet so I know that there are tons and tons more out there.

I think that a lot of the apps have a game/fun component to draw the kid in but I don't really see a problem with that. We all like to be entertained. smile

Love, love, love this thread!
