Review on Osmo Math Wizard and the Magical Workshop for iPad & Fire Tablet - Ages 6-8/Grades 1-2 - Addition & Subtraction - Curriculum-Inspired - STEM Toy - Osmo Base Required by Sameer Harder

Don't buy this. Even if you love other Osmo games

This is the worst Osmo game so far. You should be ashamed. I have about a dozen others and they are great. It's confusing to set up/start. It's also not very educational for 6-8 year olds (it's more for 3-4 year olds because you just string the pieces together - no math). This is buggy - the first 3 times it crashed within 30 seconds of opening the app (had to uninstall and redownload the app to fix it). The key feature that allows your child to measure something in a book and see that measurement on the screen was very flawed - it works less than 50% of the time. That is, she points to a 4 cm ruler, and she points to 3 cm and thinks she was wrong. A very poorly designed and poorly built educational app that doesn't live up to the high standards that Osmo has for its other apps.

Pros
  • Best in their niche
Cons
  • The list will be long.
