There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
My child really enjoys the stories activity, but the squiggles is fun only in short spurts because it is boring (even though this was the reason I bought is). For the stories activity, I wish they included more characters and pieces - it could have been really nice. Due to the nature of these activities, I removed one star. The work pad provided by Osmo is great and of high quality and a must have for all activities.
There is a parent app that is not all that great, and their app to download and use the activities is so-so and semi-confusing. I did not pay full price - I would not recommend paying full price - but for a deal like I got, it is an okay purchase and we use it frequently so I am glad we purchased it (especially with isolation going on). It is fine, but really could have been excellent, and I hope in the future they make it so. I will keep an eye out for other activities in the future.
She loves this and a wonderful learning tool!
Top reviews from other countries
I would like to say that we took the time to set up everything prior to wrapping this gift and it made their first experience with Osmo seamless. We recommend doing this for your kids as well so that play can happen straight out of the box.
An amazing product, and this kit is worth every penny because there's so much to do and so much to add on. We will be purchasing all add one in the coming months!
