Pros & Cons
Pros
The recommended age range is 5 years to 10 years. Using music to teach the kids is brilliant. There is such a variety of lessons and games and everything is easy to use. Osmo is a must have for kindergarten age.
The coding awbie game teaches kids how to string together commands with 35 learning levels. It keeps my kids hands busy and they're not just tapping on stuff. It's such a good buy and my daughter loves playing with it especially the jam app.
The tiles are magnetic to one another and are stored in a heavy duty tupperware like container. They are sturdy, durable, and easy to wipe down.
My one reservation is that $70 feels steep. It really is great. I feel fortunate it was still there.
Cons
Game audio crashes after about 10 minutes. They are not magnetic and can't be used with the original set.

With all the osmo software that i try out i am always super impressed by its quality and durability.

Shipping
However, the delivery person never rang the bell or knocked on the door.
Packaging/appearance
If you received this item in amz frustration free type packaging, the instructions are wrong on the brown box.
Included in the box are tangible coding pieces that have magnets to help them snap together to create short scripts.
Competitiveness
He had used a couple other osmo sets and he picked this one up without any issues.
There is also a newer app that unifies all these coding games, but i could not find such an app on the amazon app store.
Very similar to scratch jr but with real puzzle pieces.
