Be careful when using Revain FreeTime

My kids have Kindle Fires with Revain FreeTime for parental controls. Getting Osmo to work on their Kindle was a disappointment. Anything you try will be blocked. The first problem is installing the Osmo app. To do this with FreeTime enabled, you need to download it to the parent's device, then share it to the kid's device, and then download it to the kid's device. Now open the app on the kid's device, it says you need an account. Blocked on a child's device. Do it on the parent device. Sign up

Pros
  • INCLUDES: Osmo Base & Reflector for iPad, tangram bricks, number tiles, word tiles, stackable memory for each game and 5 game apps: Numbers, Tangram, Words, Newton and Masterpiece.
Cons
  • No automatic

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

Pros
  • SKILLS LEARNED: Visual problem-solving skills, puzzles, math, addition, counting, subtraction, multiplication, geography, marine biology, freehand drawing, listening comprehension, reading, learning physics, and improving spelling and vocabulary. Osmo sees and reacts to every movement in real life. Child oriented and eager to learn.
Cons
  • No power

Got a broken base and bad customer service.

*Update from original review: We have a spare base that is fully functional. The customer rating remains pretty poor, but the replacement base works well. My daughter loves her Osmo and the games she has. She prefers the detective game and plays it almost every day. Still frustrated with how the whole experience turned out but happy with the working base. I have to say we were delighted to purchase Osmo as a Christmas present. We bought an awesome kit, fire and five games from Osmo. Myโ€ฆ

Pros
  • iPad COMPATIBILITY: All iPads except generation 1-4. iPad Reflector 2021 required for: iPad Mini 6, iPad Air 4, iPad Pro 11-inch and iPad Pro 12.9-inch. Minimum required iOS version is iOS 10.
Cons

Perfect educational gift for your kids

We purchased the Genius kit after hearing about it for a long time in children's school and from our friends who have this product. Having played with the product with my daughter, I highly recommend it and think it's worth every penny at $99.99. While there are many educational games on the market that allow children to learn and practice the basics of math; I think this one is unique because it never glues them to the screen. For the child, it is like playing a board game with chips orโ€ฆ

Pros
  • LEARN: Put together 100+ drawings/puzzle pieces that match the shapes on the screen (Tangram), solve creative physics puzzles by drawing lines or placing objects in front of the screen (Newton), learn to draw anything with creative drawing skills (masterpiece), add, count, subtract and multiply tiles to burst number bubbles by solving math equations (numbers), learn spelling and vocabulary with screen pictures and selectable difficulty levels (words).
Cons
  • Requires socket

Good but boring and should include a workbook

I really like the idea of these activities and the tactile interactivity that Osmo creates. However, the games are kinda limited, boring and slow (at least for the kids). Hopefully they will update the programs in the future so our youngest child really enjoys them because I think there is a lot of potential here. I also wish these games had more guidance for kids so they can make it easier and more independent at that age, but it keeps me involved in what they're doing, which is a good thingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • A Christmas present for boys and girls. OSMO IS MAGIC: fun and award-winning educational games. Children interact with real wearable objects and iPads to bring child play elements and activities to life (no WiFi required to play). Osmo base included, iPad not included, both required to play.
Cons
  • Compatibility
