The iPhone apps world is getting huge. And the educational apps segment is growing even faster. The iPhone and now the iPad make fantastic platforms for kids to use to learn everything from colors to advanced mathematics. And that’s why we started GiggleApps — to tell the world about these great apps and this great platform for them.

If you’d like to help us review these apps, we’d love to have you. We’ve got a long list of apps ready to review and you’ll have free access to them. We’re looking for 1-2 app reviewers for the site and if you are able to keep a regular schedule of 3 reviews per week, we have a paid contract position open. Writing for GiggleApps won’t pay all of your bills, but it may help pay for that new iPhone.

If you are interested in writing for us, please send us the following:

Your Name
Where you are located (State, Country)
What types of apps you like best
Your 5 favorite apps
How many apps you can review per week
Three writing samples — app reviews written in the style like we do on GiggleApps

We look forward to hearing from you — email all of the above to writers {at} giggleapps.com

Welcome to GiggleApps, a site for iPhone and iPod Touch app reviews for kids and parents.

Kristen and I have known each other for a while, and we started GiggleApps from what we saw as a need for educational reviews for apps. To any parent who has an iPhone or iPod Touch, you know how quickly and easily the little ones pick up the device and figure out how to use it. It just seems natural for them. And because of this we’ve seen some really interesting new applications developed as this potential was realized.

We hope to bring you great app reviews, how-to articles, lists of our favorite apps and more. But, we want to know what you think and what you want to see. Each post has a comment section at the bottom – never hesitate to speak your thoughts on an app. And if you want to contact us, you can do so via our contact page. We love hearing from you.

So… stay in touch – we’re still getting things moving, but expect more exciting things from us soon. You can keep track of our new posts via Facebook, Twitter, our RSS feed, or even Email.

Thanks for visiting,
Jeff
