Welcome to Monday’s Apps For Kids, a new Cult of Android feature where we take a look at kid-centric apps. Many of us are parents with kids who seem to know their way around our mobile devices better than we do. With the Google Play Store having over 400,000 apps, it can be quite a daunting task trying to find apps appropriate for our young tech enthusiasts. With Monday’s Apps For Kids, we hope to make that task easier by suggesting an array of topics and apps that have been kid tested and parent approved. So grab whatever crayon is lying around and get ready to write down a few apps worth checking out.


Last month T-Mobile announced they would be launching the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G by “late March” and while that plan still stands, we now have a more concrete date. According to T-Mobile, the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G will hit “select” stores on Wednesday March 21st followed by a full release on March 28th. The Blaze 4G will run you $149.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and features:

I seriously can’t praise Amazon Wireless enough for the amazing deals they offer on smartphones. Anyone looking to purchase a phone should really consider checking out Amazon Wireless before making any decisions because they really do offer the best prices. In fact, throughout the month of March, every Sprint 4G smartphone is on sale for a penny. Not only can you get a new phone for a penny but if you purchase before March 19th, Amazon will also waive the activation fee (a $36 deal).


Many of you have been patiently waiting for the Readability app to come to Android and today it has — sort of. Amazon apparently inked a deal with Readability to launch the app exclusively on the Amazon App Store for the first week, so if you want to get it today, your only option is Amazon (for now). I know what you non-US residents are thinking and no, it does not exclude you. In fact, you guys actually get to download it from the Google Play Store (how do you like them apples).
