PlayShifu STEM Toy Math Game - Plugo Count (Kit + App with 5 Interactive Math Games) Educational Toy for 4 5 6 7 8 Year Old Birthday Gifts | Story-Based Learning for Kids (Works with tabs/mobiles)

I got this for my 5- and 8-year-old, and it was a hit! They both love STEM toys, and so do I, since they make learning fun while keeping those curious little brains engaged. This one did not disappoint—it turned math practice into an interactive and exciting game rather than just another lesson.One of the best features is the ability to select different difficulty levels, so both of my kids could find something suited to them. My younger one could start with the basics, while my older child got more of a challenge, making it a toy they can grow with. The combination of hands-on play and digital interaction kept them interested for much longer than I expected.If you're looking for a fun, educational toy that actually holds kids' attention while reinforcing math skills, this is a great choice. It’s a fantastic way to make learning feel like play!

First off, I have to tell you how impressed I was with shipping. Shifu plugo count, arrived from California all the way to the Middle East in less than a week! The set up was incredibly easy which required downloading the Plugo app with our compatible device and follow the on screen instructions. Note, the device we are using is the Amazon Fire 7, 9th generation but it is also compatible with our iPhones. Plugo game pad and count came with a quick start guide for parents and educators which was easy to understand and follow along with.This is such a great interactive game for both of my children (ages 3 and 6) I was able to create profiles for both of them and adjust each profile to their learning range. I've been searching for apps that keep my kids entertained while teaching them and haven't been able to find that until now with the Shifu. There are a bunch of different "games" within the app to go along with the pluggo count and the fact that it grows with them is priceless. Both kids were laughing while being challenged playing with spike and the fun characters within in the pluggo count app. I am looking forward to adding new additions to our collection like the Orboot and link. I highly recommend this and it would make the perfect gift.

We just received our Plugo count and I love how user friendly it is for my daughters (3 & 5 years old). The packaging is great for after storage when not playing the game and there are 2 digit game pieces for every number as you can see in the pictures. You do have to download the app and have a tablet or phone that is compatible with the game so keep that in mind when purchasing. My daughters did need help when first playing because they cannot read yet but after that, they easily understood the commands on the screen and was able to complete the math problems. Because of the way the pieces are made, it is super user friendly for my kids to handle with their small hands and I love how it promotes gross motor functions for young learners. I do homeschool my girls and this will be a great extension to our regular math lessons. It’s healthy screen time and I absolutely appreciate that as a parent.

This game is great and my five year old loves it. You can customize what math skills to work on - turn off things that are too advanced or too easy. He is excited to play it and definitely learns along the way. With that said, the product advertises a variety of games but really all the games are copies of each other just with different characters. They definitely could have been more creative. Not sure my five year old picks up on it yet though.

This is excellent! My 5 year old loves it. Some questions can be challenging/more advanced, but this is good because it helps us (parents) know what to focus on during our learning time.

I love this for my boys. The only downside is that connecting the yellow piece ( I can’t remember its name) is very janky at times. It will be on the play mat, but will not be recognized in the app. It’s kind of annoying, but once everything is running it’s great!

This one works well! My son hates math and actually didn't argue at all to turn this on. He looked like he actually enjoyed playing on it. I also ordered the letter one, didn't work as well as this one and my kids got frustrated pretty quick. But this one is definitely worth your money!

To start, I want to add that I have an Android Tablet and not an iPad, so this may be an Android problem, too. But this game is supposedly compatible with the android tablet.I had high expectations for this Shifu Count game for my Kindergarten son. I thought it would be a fun game to help him learn, and although it may be fun for some, the Kindergarten age is not a good age to buy this game for.I think this game would be more suitable for a preschool aged kid. The addition in this game is SO SIMPLE. It makes me mad how simple it is, and you can't make it harder. At least, when I try to it doesn't increase the difficulty. My son isn't old enough to do multiplication or division yet, so I'm hoping that it will be more useful when he is in first or second grade.I'm upset about this purchase, especially because of the price point and it not being up to scale for a Kindergartener.But also, the product itself has PLENTY OF BUGS. My son likes one of the games out of the 5 offered (they're all basically the same game with a different background), and it glitched at times and abruptly ended at the end. No finish.I'm hopeful for this company that their other programs (music, STEM, etc.) are better and I'm willing to try those out, but as for this one:TL;DRDon't buy this for your Kindergartener.Buy for your Pre-schooler for beginning addition and subtraction.Buy for your Kiddo learning multiplication and division.Expect bugs and glitches.Probably works better for an iPad than an android tablet.
