Review on πŸ”“ Unlock Your Child's Potential with the Osmo Genius Starter Kit for iPad! by Virgilio Feliciano

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great way for kids to interact with the screen.

I really love this product. It's way better and more fun than hanging out on YouTube (*cough* Ryan *cough*). My daughter is 4 years old and got it for Christmas 2018. It quickly became her favorite toy. She loves the monster (which isn't actually included in this pack, but is a free download and doesn't require anything special other than a whiteboard and a dry-erase marker). screen and interacting with them is so interesting for them! Santa also brought her a super chic convertible easel/table with a whiteboard page to match this one perfectly. Good lighting is important for the camera to see clearly. She also likes other games, but her favorite game is monsters. Now that we have it, I feel a lot better about her screen time because I feel like she's learning more than she could even with an ABC mouse. I am sure it is a toy that she will grow into and enjoy for years to come. My only complaint is that I can't figure out how to add different games to the Osmo "Home" app in Freetime. At the moment she is playing my account on her fire tablet but I think that will be fixed soon.

Pros

Osmo sees and reacts to every movement in real life. Child oriented and eager to learn.
Cons
