Especially for preschoolers through first grade. Students can build machines with the provided parts.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Whether your children are fans of Bob the Builder or Lightning McQueen and the crew from Disney's Cars and Planes, they will love building all manner of things that go. A car, airplane, ship, choo choo train and classic motorbike are just a few of the fun vehicles kid will learn to construct in sharp 3D with this engaging early learning app perfect for ages 3-5.
If aeronautical engineering sounds a bit advanced even for your bright young tot, have no fear. The models automatically rotate to help kids find the proper placement for each piece. They can't mess up because parts don't snap in place until they are correct. These models won't be crashing or sinking for lack of a rotor or wheel.
The best part is that kids' hard work is rewarded because their designs come to life when complete. The flying, floating, puffing and puttering machines that belch smoke and make satisfying rumbles will delight youngsters. Children can choose their favorites from the twelve included toys or let the game decide for them using the intuitive controls.

~> Featured by Apple in the the new Kids' categories "Best for ages 5 & under" | "Create & Play" | "Shapes & Colors" in the US
"TOP 5 Kids Apps of the Week" - Mashable

App includes:
· Twelve classic toys in bright primary colors - airplane, car, cement mixer, motorbike, ship, train, crane, digger, monster truck, firetruck and robots.
· Easily sliding pieces perfect for children with still developing fine motor control
· Option to mute background music and/or sound effects.
· Language neutral for universal appeal
· Child-safe, protected environment

Croco Studio believes in learning through play and this app subtly presents a number of age appropriate educational concepts. Children are introduced to left/right, top/bottom and back/front as they spin their models to find where pieces go. They also achieve a basic understanding of symmetry and balance because headlights and taillights come in pairs and portholes and railings go on both sides of a ship. Visual memory and visual motor skills get a real workout through the concentration needed to put together these childhood favorites.

If there is one area where Montessori materials and tools play an essential role, it's Mathematics. Contrary to traditional pedagogy, children are not encouraged to learn by memorization, but rather by manipulating objects and making sense of the world around them through discovery.

In the early years, the child develops their language skills through imitation. To progress into reading, the child must first develop an understanding of the writing system. According to Maria Montessori, this is where self-confidence makes an immense difference and can propel the child into the next phase of their education. With this fundamental component in mind, Edoki offers a catalog of progressive apps aimed not only teach children but to encourage them to be confident learners.

Creativity at its finest! Edoki Academy gives children the tools necessary to channel their inner-learner and bring out their artistic side. Deeply rooted in the Montessori framework, our apps provide children with spontaneous discoveries and 'aha!' moments galore!

A child's environment is what peaks their passion and curiosity for the world around them. Educators Jean Piaget and Seymour Papert carried-out Maria Montessori's vision by creating settings that encourage children to manipulate objects. On the same note, Edoki Academy offers stimulating and enchanting worlds that serve as a platform for discovery to take place in.

The collections gather several coherent programs. Buying them, you get a discount. You are also guaranteed to keep your children busy for a long, long time!

Eyes on the Solar System lets you explore the planets, their moons, asteroids, comets and the spacecraft exploring them from 1950 to 2050. Ride with the Curiosity Rover as it lands on Mars or fly by Pluto with the New Horizons spacecraft all from the comfort of your home computer.

Using real trajectory data you can recreate famous moments in solar system exploration, or preview exciting adventures yet to come. Fly with the Voyager spacecraft on their grand voyage, orbit Mars with MAVEN, fly by a comet with Deep Impact or Stardust, and observe our home planet alongside the spacecraft that keep track of Earth's climate.

Want a quick dose of exciting exploration? Try the 'Simple' mode of Eyes on the Solar System to explore exciting destinations and missions and learn about the people involved in making it all happen. Interested in more details? Eyes on the Solar System has modules that focus on specific places or missions. Recreate the New Horizons flyby of Pluto or learn about the Dawn spacecraft as it orbits Ceres.

All these experiences are available on a Mac or PC by downloading NASA's Eyes.
