Welcome to App Friday, our weekly link exchange of family-friendly apps. Who ever thought that the world of apps for kids could provide so much intrigue? This week we learned about Barnes & Noble’s Nook for Developers, met aspiring entrepreneurs for coffee, listened to concerns from activists, and brainstormed in our forum about what the future holds. I don’t know about you, but we seem to be putting “lifelong learning” to the test. App Friday – thank goodness you are around to keep us on track. Let’s go download!

- PROMOTIONAL PRICING: Most prices are applicable on Friday Sept. 9th until 8pm US Pacific Time. After the promotion is over, apps revert back to regular pricing on the iTunes App Store, unless the developers choose to extend the promotion beyond Friday.
- THE IMPORTANCE OF iTUNES REVIEWS: If you are enjoying the apps featured here at App Friday, please consider leaving a review for the developer on the iTunes Store. Reviews mean a lot to the success of an app, and the more independent developers we have, the more content choices parents have for their kids. Thanks for keeping this in mind.
