Age Recommendations

ℹ️Ages 3-5

Recommended for ages 3–5 with parent supervision; short sessions are ideal. Watch first play to confirm device compatibility (some users report crashes).

ℹ️Ages 6-8

May be too simple for most 6–8 year-olds unless they are just beginning addition; consider more challenging math apps. If used, pair with extension activities (real-world counting/more advanced puzzles).

ℹ️Ages 9-12

Not recommended as educationally challenging; content is preschool-level. Look for apps that cover multi-digit addition, subtraction, and problem-solving.

ℹ️Ages 13-15

Not appropriate — content is aimed at preschool numeracy and will not meet older kids' learning needs.

ℹ️Ages 16-18

Not appropriate for teens; choose age-appropriate math or coding apps instead.
