Taroo - Creativity games

Downloaded this for my nephew thinking it would be just another kids app, but honestly I was pleasantly surprised. The activities actually get kids to think, create and use their imagination instead of just tapping through games or videos. My favorite part is that it feels encouraging and low pressure, there’s no harsh grading or wrong answers. One of the few apps where screen time actually feels productive. Definitely worth trying. My nephew loves it!!

My 7 year old had clearly moved past Lingokids and I am not ready to open up screen time to games like Roblox. Taroo seems to be a perfect middle ground. He has fun and I love that he’s picking up creative skills. Love Doodle Master the best. Gamifies something as simple as doodling. I hope they’ll quickly add a lot more quests to keep it interesting. Great start though!

My nephew and niece are 6 and 9 and we’ve gone through a lot of apps together. Most of them are just quizzes dressed up with cartoons. This one is different because there’s no right answer to anything. There’s a decent range of activities too which helps. They haven’t gotten bored yet. Still pretty new so there’s room to grow but I’m excited to see where it goes.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
