Leonardo Da Vinci, a celebrated Italian Painter and Artist, once said, “Learning never exhausts the mind.” And I genuinely believe in that ideology. They say you are never too old to learn new things, but with our busy lives and overbearing schedules, we tend to get too busy to learn anything new. But there is where our Television sets come to our rescue. If you are an Apple TV owner, you can easily install apps to learn many things from cooking to music to a whole new course.
In this app round-up, we have come up with a list of the best Apple TV educational apps that you could install to learn something new for yourself as well as for your toddler. Don’t let idiotic TV programs hinder your child’s development; instead, make them learn things in a fun and enjoyable way.
1. Coursera
