Osmo Coding Jam & Base

This Christmas, find the perfect balance between learning and play with Osmo. The newest trend in children's tech seems to be coding, and it has really taken off. What is coding exactly? Well, speaking simply, coding is what allows our computers, apps, and websites to operate the way they do. Codes are assigned to certain actions within the app (or website etc.) and when the code is put in, the action then follows. Osmo takes interacting with an iPad a step further for your child, it introduces hands on play, and allows the use of items outside the screen, their game Coding Jam, allows children to create music, by using code.

Coding Jam lets children create their own music and each block is part of an open-ended music studio with dozens of characters and instruments. Music can then be shared with family and friends, who can then vote on which tune is the most Jamtastic tune of the day. This will give children more confidence in their creations and help grow a love of coding and music. The game comes with 23 magnetic coding blocks including: walk, jump, grab, loop, sequentials, sleep, and multipliers. You also get stackable storage and the app with purchase. Osmo Coding Jam offeres more than just a fun, new way to play, children will learn:

• Coding Fundamentals
• Pattern Recognition
• Sequencing and loops
• Rhythm, Harmony, and Melody
• Creative Coding

The base is needed to make this and other Osmo games work, it allows the app to read the play pieces that are in the play area, simply plug the iPad into the base and clip on the reflector. The base works with multiple iPad models including: iPad 2, iPad (3rd Generation), iPad (4th Generation), iPad Mini, iPad Mini 2, iPad Mini 3, iPad Mini 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2, the 9.7-inch and 10.5-inch iPad Pro.

The perfect Christmas gift for inquisitive young minds, and a great gateway to introduce your little ones to technology.
