Coolest Gift For Kids

This is one of the coolest things you can gift a kid. I gave this to my 7 year old son. He loves his iPad, he loves games. This is the best of both worlds plus since it is educational, it removes some of the guilt about giving him more daily screen time. He has been playing with it non-stop and he is learning at the same time. I love how it is modular in the sense that you can download multiple different apps that work on different subjects to develop his brain. Totally recommend this for any parent looking to help their kids learn especially during this pandemic where us parents have to be pseudo teachers too.

This was a Christmas gift for my very curious grandson. He is super smart ( for 5 ) and loves figuring things out. He received a Nintendo Switch for Christmas... ( which he really wanted ) but after opening this gift... He hasn't touched the Switch again. He absolutely LOVES this game. He finds it both Fun and Challenging. I am glad I bought this for him.

This is a really great educational product for kids - makes me feel less guilty about their addiction to their iPads! I recommend getting coordinating the color with the color of your child's iPad - hence why I went with white. I did store pick-up for this product and BestBuy had incredible customer service with this feature - was so nice to be able to wait in a short line during the holiday madness and get this product quickly!

Works well with Apple Devices. One thing I encountered is that it is not clear that you need a different package that is much more expensive to work with android devices. This is not available from Best Buy. You must go to a vendor like Amazon. There is nothing that the software does to make it easy to diagnose the problem. If used with an iPad, this works well. It did not do well with an iPhone 6.

Love it. Bought genius for my 6 year old granddaughter to help her learn during lockdown out of school on her iPad, and wanted something she could learn on it besides watching videos all the time as she does lol. This was perfect, and I was able to enjoy doing the puzzles and math , drawing with her. She loves it. Great product, thank you.

I bought this for my son a couple of years ago and he loved it. So I bought this one for my nephews. They enjoy it so much. The fact that it works right along with their iPads is even better. The ease of each activity helps to move things along for them.

Perfect for our 6 year old grandson for Christmas. He had it up & running on his iPad within minutes & was going through the exercises. It's pretty cool how it recognizes what it being written or how the shapes are arranged. There are many other activities.

Bought it as xmas gift for a 4 year old. Kid enjoys it very much. The starter kit is as the name implies it is just a starter. Already but few add-ons as the kid found it enjoyable. I wish they had few more as part of the starter so that one doesn't have to pay extra.

I ordered open box and the item came in excellent condition. My son loves the gift. He saw it on tv and uses it at least once a day. I’m very pleased because it’s more of a learning tool then game.

Our son loves playing with Osmo but the app allows you to select other games that we do not have equipment. It just entices our son to ask for these games.

Love it! My child really didn’t like sitting and doing worksheets to learn. Started to worry about falling behind but once I gifted Osmos, she enjoys her studying time!
