I love this product, I really do. It is so much better and more fun than zoning out on YouTube (*cough* Ryan *cough*). My daughter is 4 and she got this for Christmas 2018. It has quickly become her favorite toy. She loves the monster (which is not actually included in this pack but is a free download that does not need anything special other than a whiteboard and dry erase marker) she had never been very interested in drawing and watching him pull her drawings up into the screen and interact with them is so exciting for her! Santa also brought her a super spiffy convertible easle/table with a whiteboard side that works perfectly with this. Good lighting is important so the camera can clearly see. She enjoys the other games too, but the Monster is by far her favorite. I feel much better about her screentime now that we have this because I feel like she is learning more than she would, even with ABC mouse. I am confident that this is a toy she will be able to grow into and enjoy for many years. My only complaint is that I can not figure out how to add the various games into the Osmo "home" app in Freetime. For now she plays it on my account on her Fire tablet but I think that is something that hopefully will be fixed soon

I can’t explain how amazing Osmo is! I have used the Osmo system in my classroom for three years. The kids in my class never get tired of it and it makes an amazing center. Anyone that comes into my classroom and has never seen how it works is amazed! I am so excited that Osmo has made this for the Kindle Fire Tablets. I love the new version for the Kindle! Thank you Osmo! =)

This product was purchased with a gift card. Easy to use. I had no issues setting it up with my account I had. My students were able to keeping using numbers from where they had left off, the same with words. I use this with my children ages 8,6, and 4. I also use this in my classroom setting which is K-5. I enjoy tangrams because I like puzzles. It was actually the reason I first purchased and became familiar with OSMO.

We purchased this for our 7yo for his birthday, he already had a Kindle Fire. We bought solely based on a pop ad. So glad we did. it allows him the screen time he wants while being interactive and educational at the same time. He sat and played for a solid hour after opening. We had no glitches or problems setting it up. I will definitely be buying more Osmo products.

I love that my son enjoys playing with this and he is learning as he plays. I thought it might be too advanced for my 4 year old however, they didn't have little genius set for kindle yet, but he's doing great. We were able to use our own dry erase board for the masterpiece app as well and he loves mo the monster. I thought(explanation follows)it may be a little overpriced as the cards are like a laminated cardboard and could be easily worn but it's new and a great concept. I love that they include the plastic storage containers which will help keep the cards organized and from getting messed up. I didn't like that in order to download the apps I had to but a new kindle as the app wasn't available on older models, however I picked one up on a deal so it wasn't as bad as I feared. Over all I am very happy I made the purchase because my son loves playing with it and is learning at the same time. I also appreciate that the apps are free and not added purchases after paying for the setup, it makes the overall price more understandable. If need be I would purchase again since it is inspiring my son to enjoy drawing as well as learning to add,subtract,make words,etc. I also love that as he get older I can get other "games" to keep the learning going as he grows. Well worth it in my opinion. Great job osmo thank you!

We love Osmo, but it's been frustrating that the Osmo apps don't all seem to be categorized as "educational" by Amazon, so they are restricted if you enable parental controls with goals for educational content. We had to cancel the Free Time subscription because of this. Otherwise, if you turn off parental controls to un-filter their access to get Osmo back, then you're competing with the more junky (but fun) free-time apps. If Amazon allows parent more control over what can be categorized as educational, or allows Osmo to be categorized this way, then we will add Amazon Free Time back.

My 5 year old was able to play with the Osmo kits at our public library (even though they recommend it for older kids) and LOVED the few games she tried out. I bought her the Genius kit to start off with. The numbers and tangram games are her favorites. I think she will love the words game more once she gets the hang of it. The masterpiece game is just not for us. The Newton game was fun but we are still learning. Over all we love the Osmo and look forward to adding more games to our collection. Some basic info if you buy the Osmo Genius kit, it comes with *almost* everything you need to play the 5 apps that are part of the genius kit. Numbers, Words and Tangrams come with pieces which are included in the kit. Newton really requires a white board - dry erase board and pen. You can use paper but it's easier with a dry erase board. We ended up using a white plastic lid in place of a dry erase board. Masterpiece you use paper I believe, you could probably use a dry erase board but since you are drawing paper and pencil or pen work better. Yes, you do have to download all 5 apps.

I wasn't sure about buying Osmo due to the cost but it is worth every cent! We were looking at this for Christmas this year and decided to get it early since the kids have been quarantined for the rest of the school year. They love it! We bought several of the add on games. The only complaint I have is possibly a user issue but it seems that even though the kids get separate accounts to track their progress and allow them to continue where they left off, it seems that the reward points used to buy stickers on the game are combined. If one spends them the other one has no way to get them back. Overall, great purchase and separate Kindles would probably solve the points issue.

Love this thing. It’s creative, fun, and educational. It’s neat to see your drawings pop up on the screen. My daughter emails me her drawings all the time and it’s time lapse. The tangram game is a favorite! Can’t wait to add more games. Newton is fun also. The math/word games could use some work, they don’t hold the kids attention at all...

We got this for our son for Christmas. He tried the word game first. It was a little difficult for him. He is in Kindergarten and only just learning how to spell. He played a few rounds before it got too frustrating for him to play on his own. He tried the Tangram and drawing with Mo(we got the creative kit as well, for our daughter) They both love Mo! I know this will provide hours of fun, and they will be able to use it for a long time to learn more words and math!
