So far we have 6 different games and they love them, My only complaint is that I have to take their iPads out of their cases. $1,000+ I’d REALLY prefer to keep them safely in their cases! And each game should read the directions aloud for the child! They try to go to a different game and don’t know what to do so they put it away unless I’m right beside them.Would love to see more for speech, performance based prizes & upgrades for characters (like cool cars, not just clothes). And for the price, the carrying case should be included for on the go playing.

I was skeptical to trust the positive reviews but have been impressed woth the pedagogical value this set provides. Also bought monster as an add on and the entire family loves this kit. Kiddo loves the math games while also learning about different species and tan gram is always a hit

Osmo makes some great learning products and this is no exception. Both my 5yo & 8yo love this product and look forward to learning. This is fun for even everyone.

Yayaaaayys

My kid used to play Osmo when she was 3 years old with their little genius starter kit back in the days. I sold them then forgot all about it and now she's 6. I asked her if she remembers playing Osmo in the past, she doesnt but when I ordered the Genius Start Kit that's more suitable for her age, she seems to remember some aspects to it.Upon opening the game, the process to install and add Osmo is pretty easy as long as you have an account with Osmo. They'll send you a code to connect the apps. We then tried 4 out of the 5 of the games they include.Numbers: such a great game for math skills, there's a whole lot of basic math work - adding, subtracting and when it got to multiplying and the numbers got a little higher - we had to stop.Words: You have to fill out the blanks as there are missing letters in a word. It's a fun game for a 6 year old who loves spelling out words. We haven't gone that far into the game but I would imagine it gets harder and she would constantly be challenged.Masterpiece: This game is a tricky one. I won't lie but I was excited about this one because my kid loves drawing and coloring. Unfortunately the tracing part where you trace on the paper with the help of the tracing outline on ipad is SO SO SO weird. It's hard to trace as you're constantly trying to find the lines and you're looking up and down repeatedly to make sure your pencil is on the line and most of the time, it's not so instead of tracing - my kid just memorized and copied the general outline and drew it herself on the paper. I wish this game was better in so many ways.Tangram: This one is a WINNER! My kid had so MUCH fun playing this game, it's almost her favorite. It comes with the tandem pieces in different shapes and colors and you have to put them together to create a figure. The app will help and guide you all the way which is so fun and helpful. It's also a funny game and I catch my kid giggling and laughing most of the time.Newton: We haven't played this one yet!Osmo has become a daily part of our life.

Got this for my 2nd grader for Christmas. She loves it! It was easier to set up than I expected which is a huge deal when you have an excited kid wanting to play with it. You do need to use your phone in addition to the device your using to play it. It sends codes to your email that you need to enter. I'm not super tech savvy but had it ready to play in under 10 min. I bought it with the hopes of making her tablet time more productive without her realizing it and this accomplished that. Also purchased the pizza game and monster game. The biggest plus was that IT ACTUALLY WORKS. I expected to have to have the game pieces lined up perfectly or for it to struggle to recognize the piece placement, but nope. It immediately identifies the game pieces and creates a corresponding image on her tablet screen. My only suggestion is (especially if you're buying multiple games) since there's a lot of pieces, purchase a storage case. Amazon has cases specifically for it, but make sure you buy the correct one (iPad vs android vs Fire tablet) because the docking piece is different for each one. This is definitely a great gift and since I got it on a deal day for 50% off, I got the additional games and I'm glad I did. I'm hoping it continues to hold her interest because it's a fun learning tool!

My daughter does this everyday and it’s helped so much. We didn’t want her to fall victim to the “kindergarten slide” after preschool. She enjoys the games so much and is excited to play. Some she’s already finished all the way through! Love that there is different difficulties.

Osmo was recommended to me several years ago. I had forgotten about it until my house became “Gram School” while our world was social distancing. Our five year old grandson initially enjoyed the learning tools I had on hand, but I felt there was something else we could be doing to challenge him. I chose the Osmo Genius Starter Kit for IPad for 6-10 year olds after reading a review which indicated the five year old was ready for a more advanced level. Great advice! This kit comes with 5 different Learning Programs. The child is able to advance through the different levels as he/she is ready. My grandson is in Pre-K and we have chosen the Junior level. These math skills and letter sounds are spot on for him. He is learning to add and subtract and identify letter sounds without frustration. I can see him gaining confidence as he chooses the playing pieces to answer the questions. There are a few games guided by special characters which he enjoys. The Tangram offers puzzles at the Junior level and allows him to advance as he is ready. He is not as interested in Masterpiece a drawing program and is just learning the concept of Newton which is described as creative engineering with virtual balls and creating paths for them with shapes and everyday tools. There is a program for the phone for the parent to monitor progress and time spent on activities. As this is for a young child, I sit with him and supervise. I haven’t seen any clear cut directions for playing some of these games, although my grandson picked right up on it. I would prefer that I could lock the game from advancing until the child is ready for the next level. This was a bit problematic, and then he learned for himself that he was not ready for the next level. I would recommend this for any family. Although the initial cost is a bit pricey, if he uses this as a learning tool the next five years, it is money well spent. This package comes with the base for the tablet and five games. Other games can be purchased and used on this same base.

This was a great gift for a 6 year old. My grandson got this for his birthday. He loves it. Very easy to use with his iPad. Would recommend

My 4 years old is obsessed with the tangram part of this game. He can do them all by himself and if it's too difficult, he can always use the hint button and he eventually figures them out. As for the numbers part, I am using it to introduce addition and substraction. He needs a bit more assistance from me but he still finds them fun. Lastly, the letters part, I also assist him with the games and it's a great teaching tool to review his letters and letter sounds. I foresee we will still be playing with this in the next 2 years!
