Tech trend: The new Uber-for-Kids type services that play chauffeur for your kids so you don’t have to

by Kate Etue | Best Apps

When I first heard about apps describing themselves as uber for kids, I was dubious. Calling a random driver to pick my kids up from school just didn’t feel safe, and I thought I’d probably be a nervous wreck the entire time my kids were being transported....

Screen Time Manager: Our cool free app of the week

by Kate Etue | Best Apps

It’s hard enough to juggle the after-school routine of dinner, signing homework folders, and making sure the laundry is done for tomorrow, not to mention screen time management. But lately I’ve been using the free Screen Time Manager app (for iOS or...

by Christina Refford | Best Apps

The first word that pops into my head after I hear “spring” is “cleaning,” probably because three kids plus one dog equals a lot of cleaning at any time of the year. And with today being the first day of spring (yay!), my free app of the week...
