Alright
Good on learning sequencing, however does not catch the attention of kids for a very long time. After about 3 minutes they are ready to go to another app. My 23 year old, 10 year old and 5 year old had same response.
Too expensive
Tis app is ok, but waaay too expensive for what it offers
silly
whats the point of the app if the shapes move automatically in place after you touch them? the kids should have to manually place and rotate the shapes to the correct positions themselves.
More a novelty than true Montessori
My 3yo does thoroughly enjoy using this app.
I feel it doesn't really need to have the voice over, and I feel the voice shouldnt use the word cube, as it isn't - it's a square, the blocks should be drawn as a 3D representation to call them 'cubes'. And using the phrase 'great job' at the end of each exercise isn't Montessori at all (children shouldn't be seeking extrinsic motivation for completing tasks).
The lack of follow through of Montessori philosophy with this app (the other apps we have so far aren't too bad) is disappointing.

Lovely idea but would be better if the shapes could be dragged into place as it doesn't currently test the child's ability to match the pattern but rather just choose the shapes in the right order. Also in the free movement section it would be great to be able to twist the shapes around.
