Learn more about how the system works and read on for their reviews. Our writers’ children ranged in age from 3–6, but Osmo games are actually designed for children ages 3–12. We asked five of our writers to try Osmo with their kids and share their honest opinions. Osmo creates unique, hands-on learning experiences in a variety of areas: problem solving, creativity, fine motor-skill development, spelling, reading, math, and coding. Osmo prompts the child to use game pieces to build a letter out of sticks, create a picture out of shapes, spell a word, etc, and then it can “see” what your child has created, making a real-time connection between your child and the game and actively engaging your child in the learning process. It’s really cool-Kids use tangible pieces to play the Osmo games. Osmo, an award-winning educational games system that works with iPads and Amazon Fire tablets, takes this idea a step further by incorporating real-life play into their apps. There’s little developmental value in letting our kids watch YouTube videos of other children playing with toys (although most of us here at San Francisco Moms Blog have let our kids do this!), but when children play educational games online, they are engaged and learning new skills. What often gets missed in this conversation is that not all screen time is created equally.
A big challenge in modern parenting is figuring out how much screen time we should allow our young children.
