The SpongeBob Square Pants app is one of those apps you love and hate. My 3 year old loves the app and it takes up a bunch of her time. She likes to play with Sponge Bob and make him look silly and add our photos to his background (watch the video).
We hate this app because it is really annoying. You need to turn the volume down. How can you deny your little one a fun app with little educational value when they really like to see their little yellow square buddy dressed up how they like?
BlueOnionSoft makes a few baby apps. Baby Apps All-In-One is a grouping of four of those apps into one. A great deal at 1.99 at the time of this writing. You can see in the video:

Your child can learn about animals, numbers, sounds and shapes and then be quizzed on those items. It is fun and rewarding for you and your child. My 3 year old loves the app and probably spends at least 10 minutes at t time on the various activities.
There is a fair amount of learning potential in the app and this alone makes it worth the $1.99
You can check it out in the iTunes store here:

iMoo (itunes link) from Panda Cub Productions is a nice remake of those little sound apps you used to see in the stores like KB Toys. You would pick them up as a kids and tip them over just to hear the sound they made. Well Panda Cub Productions has created a nice app for just that.
You can see in the video that you have the option of a several Cow sounds and you can record your own. You actually do need to tip the app to get the moo to play – just like the real thing.
My 3 year old was disinterested in the app, but my 9 year old thought it was a blast and was rolling on the floor laughing. It is a nice party gag too. Fun in meetings or on a phone call with the boss perhaps?
This is for any age range, educational value is nil and time spent on the app is simply minutes, but it is worth the price in my opinion!
Fun!
