Click the link below to see the top 10 apps of 2014. http://www.slj.com/2014/12/reviews/best-of/sljs-top-10-apps-for-2014/ Here are some other favorites: Petting Zoo- Apple and Android, PreS-Gr 1            The app features 21 animals, each with its own chapter of whimsical animations. Swiping and tapping the creature stretches or squishes it and youngsters will gleefully await the next delightful animation sparked by their fingertips. What child wouldn't want to see animals morph from one shape to another: the rabbit into a house from which a break-dancing dachshund emerges? Or witness a lion's tail turn into the body of an alligator, who's mouth then fills with sharp teeth? Ten Little Fish - Apple, PreS-Gr 1            The charming production offers listeners lessons in counting and opposites through text and song, reinforced with a fishing game. Colorful illustrartions feature childlike art depicting fish of all shapes and sizes against a vibrant blue background
