## What is Pink Tower?

*** Now used with autistic children to practice following a sequence of events!***

Introducing the most famous Montessori activity of them all, the Pink Tower, now available on your iPad!

The Pink Tower was developed as an activity to help children with visual discrimination of dimensions, a Montessori preparation for math.

There are twelve exercises for the child to work with. Each requires them to identify the next cube in sequence to complete the desired pattern. You can choose to manually move the cubes into position or to simply touch the correct cube and it will automatically move to the correct spot.

The relationship in size between each cube in this app and the physical Pink Tower are exactly the same which is important for future Montessori activities!

This app was co-developed and approved by an AMI certified Montessori teacher with over forty years experience! We admit, we struggled with whether or not we should even develop a Pink Tower application because holding a three dimensional cube in your hand is supposed to be part of the concrete experience! However, understanding that most parents will not have a Pink Tower at home, there is value in constructing the two dimensional patterns by having to identify which cube is required in sequence to complete the design. 

Young children will enjoy working with the Pink Tower and will be gaining key concepts useful in their understanding of math.

### 3/5 — Alright

*2014-01-08*

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.

### 2/5 — Too expensive

*2013-06-30*

Tis app is ok, but waaay too expensive for what it offers

### 2/5 — silly

*2012-08-05*

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.

### 3/5 — More a novelty than true Montessori

*2012-04-22*

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.

### 3/5 — Mrs Amshak

*2011-11-30*

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.

### 4/5 — sehr gut gemacht

*2011-07-28*

wenn's noch in deutsch wäre 5 Sterne.

### 2/5 — To automated! Let kids do it instead

*2011-07-15*

One of the chief philosophies of Montessori is to let kids do it themselves and not have someone else do it for them.

The pink tower exercise normally teaches children many skills, but this application reduces it to just finding the next largest block.

Everything else is automated.  

While rotating and placing blocks on the iPad is hard a better compromise could be made.   Allow at least the option of moving the block and having it click in place.

**Developer response:** This review is pretty old - from 2011! Today the app doe allow children to choose to move the blocks manually or automated. The automated function has been used by experts with children with autism, so we didn't want to remove that function. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great for idea to take to the classroom

*2011-04-16*

I bought this game for my kids, and they love it!! I'm a montessori teacher and my kids come to school with me. After the weekend of playing this game, they went to school and started doing the patterns and completely stunned my boss. The one thing that I do wish was that the kids could place the tower blocks in the design instead of the compute doing it. Otherwise this App is approved by me a mom and a montessori teacher!

### 1/5 — expérience pauvre / poor expérience

*2011-02-09*

L'enfant n'a qu'à cliquer dessus et les cubes se mettent en place tout seul. A éviter si vous cherchez de vrais activités éducatives de type montessori. Cherchez montessori crossword qui est bien par contre.

The kids only have to click and the shapes move by themselves into place. POOR EXPERIENCE. Avoid if looking for Montessori like activities. Look for Montessori crossword this one IS REALLY GOOD.

### 1/5 — Tour rose

*2011-01-14*

Trop simple. Pas suffisamment interactif. On ne peut déplacer les cubes.
