Toontastic gives kids the digital tools to create their own cartoons; while TeleStory puts kids in the director's chair to create their own videos! With the three Toca Boca apps on the list, kids design their own worlds in which to play. With the two apps that teach coding -- Kodable and The Foos -- the very nature of the app is for kids to create content. And with the racing app showcasing Nick Jr's Blaze and the Monster Machines, kids create racetracks, which they subsequently speed over to view their handiwork.
All of the apps on this list make kids content-creators!
