Welcome to App Friday, our weekly link exchange of family-friendly apps. One more week to go in July, and then App Friday will go bonkers for Back to School. Every Friday in August, we’ll be featuring an educational topic. So whether you are interested in Preschool, Math, Language Arts, Science, or Creativity – we are going to have it covered at free and compelling prices. Parents and teachers, get ready. Developers, details on signing up are covered in this post.

Android Apps
Sometimes the apps above are also offered on Android. The Android platforms (i.e., Nook, Amazon, Google Play) can have different price change mechanics than iOS, so this section of the post is not about sale prices, but more of a heads-up on who also develops on Android. This week, you can also find Puzzle MasterPics on Google Play.
