I love that it’s screen time with a purpose that incorporates hands-on learning and allows children to self-direct to practice and expand their learning concepts! It’s especially helpful as I’m still working from home so it allows my children to learn without me having to be on them every second to get things done. We’ve been using the Genius Starter Kit the last few weeks and everyone in the family has been enjoying it so much. When you download the app, you can create your account and then install the games that you would like and you’re ready to begin play!
With Osmo, you hook your tablet or iPad into the Osmo base and then add the reflector to the top (it goes over the camera) and download the Osmo app. Osmo is a hands-on learning experience that combines physical and digital interactions with the use of an iPad or Fire tablet and their unique Osmo learning games and activity apps. Osmo is unique as it combines a multitude of senses – visual, mental and physical engagement – for a healthier screen time learning experience. I’m super picky about what apps and online learning resources I allow my children to use, so when stumbled upon Osmo in my research, my interest was piqued. I knew that technology was going to be a huge factor into our schooling and I’m so grateful for all the online learning opportunities that we have available. With that said, the day that we found out that we were on the route to homeschool life, I ordered an iPad immediately. To be honest, in the past I’ve never been a huge fan of screen time for my kiddos because I didn’t like that it was so digital only focused.
