Add-on game Coding Jam lets kids code to create music. The Osmo Coding Starter Kit includes the Base unit that can be used with all the other Osmo games (maths, drawing, shapes, and more). It’s like (visual programming language) Scratch meets Lego. Players can see the effects of the coding blocks in real-time before running the actions. Combined with parameter, loop, and boolean (if-then) blocks, kids can easily make complex sequences for character Awbie to follow.
Osmo’s team is made up of former Google software engineers, so you can be sure that these guys know what they’re doing when teaching to code.Įach physical code block contains a unique command (walk, change direction, jump, grab) that can be sequenced with other commands. Osmo Coding uses the brilliantly simple Osmo game system. The latest set of games is Osmo Coding, which are designed to teach coding to kids aged 5-12. There are several wonderful Osmo games, which we really recommend you take a look at. This “Reflective AI technology” allows kids to play with physical items in the real world while still benefiting from the power of iPad technology. Osmo consists of a Base unit that you slot the iPad or Fire tablet in portrait mode, and a little plastic mirror cap that fits over the camera so the iPad can ‘see’ what’s happening on the table below. One of our favorite and innovative kids’ games for the iPad and now Fire tablet is Osmo, which uses a fun Montessori-like method to teach via physical objects-not normally what you’d expect from an tablet game.
