Apple has finally realized that kids using its devices need their own section in its app store. Alongside the recent introduction of iOS7, Apple has quietly rolled in a new category in its app store dedicated to app selections curated by Apple editorial staff. Parents and teachers now can have a reliable place where they can access a wide variety of apps particularly geared towards young learners.
Apps in this category are organized according to the different age levels including sections for: “Best for Ages 5 & Under,” “Best for Ages 6-8” and “Best for Ages 9-11.”There are other curated sections in the category, including Interactive Kids Stories, Explore the World, and Create and Play. This category is accessible through iTunes on a Mac and PC and on the App Store on iOS devices.
