ANNOYING

MY KID HAS BEEN STRESSED OUT OVER THIS, I WANT THIS DELETED.

This title has:

Too much consumerism
age 6+

It's a rip off

Their system is full of errors. I can't change my child's year or difficulty level. I emailed them about this and I got a generic email back without addressing any of the issues I pointed out. I asked for a full refund and was not given one. Their website says you can cancel at anytime but they don't give clear specifications on those Terms and Conditions. I'd say they are a rip off! The games themselves were not the right level for my child - and it was made worse by the fact I couldn't edit her age.

Is It Any Good?

PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN SPLASH MATH WORKBOOK GAMES is a pricey app, but with it you'll get a school year's worth of solid math practice aligned with the Common Core standards that may be being used in your kid's school. The visuals and characters are fun, and the dancing animals give kids motivation to finish their 10 questions. The range of question difficulty is pretty broad, going from counting to addition without manipulatives pretty quickly. Although there are some minor faults (some imprecise answers, quirky wording, and lack of voice-over in some areas, for example), overall it's a well-done app. The parental controls and reports really set it apart. Parents can view their kid's progress, see how long they played by day, and see the questions answered correctly along with percentages. They can also set up goals for kids to practice for a specific amount of time per day or a certain number of question or prizes per day and receive email or push reminders to make sure kids get in their daily math practice. The biggest drawback is that the reward system is completely separate from the learning process, and this can make it difficult to keep kids involved in the math exercises.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
