Peekaboo Barn for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

Good news: from what I've observed kids aren't watching as much television these days. The bad news? Parents are instead handing over their iPods and iPhones, perhaps better described as pocket babysitters. If toddlers are going to spend time with your iPhone, you should at least give them a chance to learn something in the process.

Peekaboo Barn is a straightforward app with, as you may have guessed, a barn. Children hear an animal sound, then see the animal, and hear its name. The voice can be either an adult, or another child. The best part though, is both english and spanish languages are available, making it a simple tool to teach kids multiple languages (or at least the names of animals in multiple languages) anytime, anywhere.

Overall, it is a simple app that does what it sets out to do with a kid-friendly, minimal design.
