### 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.

### 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.

### 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!

### 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.

### 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

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.

### 4/5 — Pink tower!

*2011-01-09*

This is a wonderful app for Montessori children.  Our oldest daughter who graduated from Montessori went right to work pulling our real Montessori tower from the shelf and recreating your extension activities.  Wonderful visual. Need more challenges like the combination of largest, smallest, larger, smaller... That made my four year old think!  Our two year old quickly caught on and could play too. We request the brown stairs next...red rods, or combination of the two for challenging older children. Great start to many more montessori favorites!

### 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!
