From iPhones to iPads, laptops to video games, it seems our kids are never short on entertainment.  But even with our kids spending more and more time using technology, our job as parents remains this: to guard our children’s hearts and minds.  Knowing what apps your child uses is key—as well as knowing what those apps are capable of.  Here are some of the top apps kids are using.  First, there’s Instagram.  Sharing photos is a wonderful way to stay connected with family and friends.  But be sure that your child’s account is set on ‘private’ to avoid unfiltered messages.  Second, Lumosity is a great app to exercise your mind with brain teasers.  Be sure to check out the rest of the Top Apps for Kids.
