Calling all iPhone dads - great apps for your kids

Apple's revolutionary iPhone has changed the smart phone space in a matter of months after its launch. It is now "THE PHONE" for business and personal use all other manufacturers are trying to beat. But did you know that it can also be used as toy? The iPhone is equipped with motion detectors which means it can respond interactively when children flip it over, shake it or move it about.

We asked gadget & web freak Mr K to write up a post about how he & his 14 month old daughter make use of the iPhone for some great father- daughter time. E.g. the iPhone application "dice" displays some virtual dice that roll around the screen and collide with each other - hours of fun and amazing to watch! Mr K runs iphonesource.org and he finds that the iPhone is also a great resource for new Dads. With an insanely easy interface the iPhone is simple for everyone, there are literally 100s of free applications that dad can install to keep his offspring entertained, and the camera and photo library make it easy to take / flick through photos and have a laugh.

Go the iPhone
-Mr K
