My kids are loving it
We love osmo! They have tried the coloring one before but the coding has been their favorite! They love figuring out different options and it's been great! They are playing well together and love all the different apps that they can do the coding with. It's wonderful because they are doing coding in school!! Highly recommend

Learning while having fun'
Great product for kids. My son plays with his Osmo more than iPad games. I love that he doesn't realize he's learning well having fun. He can sit there for Doing the activities. I especially like that there is an app parents can download to monitor what their kid are learning and amount of time they're online. It also shows their achievements. The only con about this product is the fact that I have to take the iPad out of the protective case. My son is very clumsy so I was a little iffy about it. Other than that it's a great product and keeps kids learning while having fun.

    My kids love it.
    I got this set for my son and daughter. They both have really enjoyed learning how to code. It is easy for them to use. My son can't stop talking about all his ideas of how he is going to build this and that.

    Great tool to use for fun and learning
    I love this product. Honestly one of the best products on the market to teach young children the general tools needed to begin coding. They make the games easy to use yet exciting and challenging so each of my kids have different experience each time they use it. The product does need to be connected to a tablet and includes the accessories needed to begin coding. My children honestly haven't realized that while they are coding they are learning and it has been a fantastic experience.

    Hours and Hours of learning!
    The Coding Kit for beginners was so fun to use, while learning how to code! This starter kit came with Coding Block Set, Base for iPad, and a storage bin. This is a great way to keep the kids engaged in a fun learning game. I found the app was easy to download and use for my family.

    Very Engaging
    My son enjoyed this so much. He enjoyed creating the patterns and that you can gain points encouraged him to keep doing tasks. He also enjoyed gaining the "points" so he could unlock other levels and gaining new avatars. I really like getting him things that he not only enjoys doing but also educate.

    Great Concept, Lengthy Setup
    The Osmo Coding Starter Kit is a really great concept, but as a pandemic parent that's pressed for time, I really cannot stress enough how much time you will need to be able to dedicate to the setup. You have to download half a dozen things to get started, then watch videos and read instructions, all while your child continuously rips the iPad out of your hand and screams, "Let me try!!!" in the shrillest voice possible. Maybe I would have rated this better if I had thought to do the initial setup on my own, without any children present? Anyway, once it's all put together and set up and you know what you're doing, it's fun for the kids. I was really impressed with the drawing game, even more so than the coding game. The drawing game is perfect for working on hand-eye coordination skills with younger kids and the different angle of the camera lets them really see how they're holding their pencil. I'm not sure if Osmo offers the drawing game on its own, but they should. The coding game is simple enough, but I'm not sure why it's called a coding game. There's no actual coding involved. The system uses the camera to look at the pieces put down on the table, controlling the characters on the screen. If you lose the pieces, the game won't work -- so head's up if there are young kids in the house. They do give you a really solid container to store the pieces in though and all of my kids like it a lot, with ages ranging from 6 to 10. Overall, I think this is a neat idea, but I wish they would streamline the download into maybe 1 app. And maybe change the game since there's really no coding involved at all. I'd love to see an expansion on the drawing game too, since that's such a hit in our house and could be so beneficial to younger kids.

    Great
    Osmo - Coding Starter Kit for iPad, Ages 5-11 is absolutely amazing. My 7 and 10 year old have had hours and hours of educational fun. The instructions are easy to follow and the games are easy to setup. They played forever without even knowing that they were doing an “educational” game. I will definitely be recommending to my friends and family.

    Love it!
    I ordered this for my two youngest boys and I am glad I did. I did my research first and found great reviews. Everything I found led to the decision to order the Osmo. My boys love it! (And so do I!) Right now we have the coding kit. I must say it is very neat and keeps the boys' interest. The only problem is they must take turns. Ha! I highly recommend this!

    Fun and engaging toy
    This Osmo - Coding Starter Kit for iPad, Ages 5-11 is definitely keeping my kids busy. My 6 year old and 3 year boy love playing it. The tutorials are very helpful it help them how much they can create. Play and learn is one of the concept I like and try to equip my kids with those kid of toys. This set helps them to understand some basics of coding and helps them to come up with solutions for problems. Overall I am really happy with this product.
