## What is Logic Playground PRO?

5 Games for Smart Children aged 4-7 years + Numbers and Counting from 1-10 in 9 languages

Do you or your children love logic puzzles? Are you looking for kids’ games that are easy to learn but challenge your brain; games that you can enjoy together with a youngster, that siblings can play together or your little ones can play safely on their own? Logic Playground includes 6 such games, all with a cute ocean theme and 9 different language options!

As they enjoy Logic Playground children will be:

• learning classic childhood games we all recognize
• developing their problem solving skills
• introduced to games that involve strategy and logic
• working on visual scanning and discernment
• developing matching and memory skills
• reinforcing their knowledge of numbers from 1 to 10
• and most importantly, having fun!

The 6 different games in the app are:

• Tic Tac Toe or Noughts and Crosses. An ideal first game for young children as they learn the concepts of turn-taking and good sportsmanship.
• 4 in a row. Simple but strategic. Like all the 2-player games in Logic Playground this one can either be played with a friend or played solo against the iDevice.
• Shell game. Also known as Thimblerig - as the iDevice shuffles the shells, can you keep your eye on the one that contains the pearl?
• Numbers. Three mini-games: matching numbers to dice faces, counting sea stars and practice writing numbers.
• Mills or Nine Men’s Morris. Older kids (and adults) will love playing this game from the Roman Empire that’s easy to learn but challenging to win.
• Color Code. A version of the board game Mastermind, this single-player code-breaking game uses fishes in bowls and has two levels of difficulty.

This app was developed by me together with my children, incorporating feedback from parents and educators. It has been awarded 5/5 stars by kinderappgarten.de, iphonekinderapps and bestappsforkids.com who said:

“Awesome app, awesome price! A number of our favorite childhood games packed into one app. Fantastic parental control features to boot!” 
And you don’t have to worry about your children playing independently with my apps. You can set a timer which will limit how long your child can play the games and because I take privacy and online safety very seriously my apps include:

• no links to websites outside the app
• no ads
• no data collection or tracking
• no social media sharing

### 4/5 — Great app but.....

*2013-05-17*

Great app and my son loves to play. Unfortunately I am unable to change the language. It lets me go to the page but then does not save it. Please fix it. Thanks

### 4/5 — Great ap

*2013-05-04, version 2.1.1*

My son is 5, we love it play it together, very educational, must try

### 5/5 — Fun fun

*2013-05-03*

There is a lot of fun wrapped up in one app. Six games with some simple and some more challenging as well as we'll made visuals make this a great app that your kid will love playing (even some adults too).

### 5/5 — A lot of fun

*2013-05-03*

This is a very entertaining app that includes familiar games like Connect Four and Tic tac toe as well as more challenging games like Mills and Mastermind. The look of the app is fun and clean with settings available with a delay so only adults should be accessing them. I would get rid of the countdown with a smiley face that displays when you access the settings. Instead, I would just have the phrase "hold for 3 seconds" flash once. The built in timer to determine how long your kid can play and the different language options are nice touches to the app.

### 5/5 — Children's Logic Fun

*2013-05-03, version 2.1.1*

I love the new take on these classic games, making them extremely fun for children. Watch your kids play tic, tac, toe, or connect 4. Test out their memory and ability to follow things in where is the pearl? or help them with numbers in the matching numbers game. An absolutely brilliant logic app for your children. It has really cute pictures which are great for kids. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — love it

*2013-05-03*

Six games in one app....and they are great games too!   Choose Tic-Tac-Toe, Connect Four, Numbers, Mills, Mastermind and Shell game.  Your kids are sure to love the choices!  The numbers game even has 3 games to choose from.  A fun one all around.  A good one to use for a reward at the end of a teaching session.

### 4/5 — Great app for kids and parents

*2012-12-09*

This app has some very fun and educational games. My daughter and I really like to play the two player games together that I used to play as a kid. There are some excellent educational numbers games as well. I especially like the game that teaches children how to actually draw the numbers. The timer function is really nice and childproof delay to access the settings is perfect. Overall I think this app is a good value.

### 5/5 — Impressed!

*2012-12-06*

I love this app! If you are in the therapy room, there are multiple games to use for reinforcement. If you want a game/activity that can entertain your child, then this is for you, too! Problem solving and simple strategy allow for enjoyment and fun! This is a must have app!

### 4/5 — Logic games with a "parent timer"

*2012-12-05*

I really enjoyed the variety of games that were available on this app such as tic tac toe and connect four.  My kids enjoyed using their thinking skills with the shell and master mind games.  I found the mill game to be very confusing to explain to my kids.   The best part of the app was being able to set a timer within the settings for the amount of time my kids could play the app.  Overall, I believe this app has a lot of options for the price.

### 4/5 — Challenging and fun logic games

*2012-12-01*

It's a nice game with a bit of a twist on some classics like TicTacToe and Connect Four. The characters are very cute and playful, and therefor give the games an air of innocence. There is a great option for parents and teachers to time how long the child is allowed to play. The best thing is that the difficulty level varies tremendously making it apt for a variety of children and learners. Mills and Mastermind are great games even for adults.
