News flash: Kids love the iPad. And parents are generally OK with that—it’s beyond helpful to be able to hand a child one long-lasting device that lets her read, play games, watch videos, or even make her own videos and artwork. But parents also know the zombie-like trance that too much iPad can cause, your kid's head craned downward for hours as he taps and swipes and pretends not to hear when you ask him something. And most iPad apps are best for one person, which stinks if you have more than one kid.</p><p>
Osmo is designed to let kids ages 6 and up engage with an iPad in a cool new way—with their heads up, and their eyes and hands are moving between the screen and real-world objects that affect the gameplay, almost like magic. Better yet, while the games can be played by one person, they’re even more fun with two…or three, or however many kids are around.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2157448/osmo-engages-kids-with-real-game-pieces-and-ipad-magic.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
