Today, Grandma and I worked with the Osmo Game System. (playosmo.com) We worked on Tangrams and Word Games. Grandma loved it! She was amazed with the technology and kept saying, "we did not have these things when I was a little girl." A Tangram is a type of puzzle where you have to make a shape. Tangrams are available as wooden pieces, and you do not need an iPad to use them, but it was a lot of fun using Osmo to solve them. We then played a word game on Osmo. It has different levels. We started with the Easy level. There is a picture clue and you need to fill in the words using your alphabet letters. Believe it or not, grandma did very well we got up to the advanced level!
