Introducing Magik Play from MAGIKBEE, Magik Play is a block game for the iPad but what makes Magik Play different is that the blocks are real physical wooden blocks that children can play with to interact with their iPad.
The Magik Play kit includes:
3 educational games- (3 Apps Hidden shape, Dino blocks and Runaway)
A set of wooden Magik blocks
A very cool iPad stand
All non-toxic and organic, when your child has finished playing all this stores back into the same box, easy and quick!
Most parents allow their younger children to use iPads; Magik Play is a way your child can play with the iPad with the benefits of handling traditional wooden toys. Watch the video below to see how Magik Play in action:
I really like how Magik Play has brought physical play to digital play.
The 3 apps created for Magik Play challenge a child to find a solution by assembling the wooden blocks. All these apps games are designed to promote:
Motor Skills
Spatial reasoning
Creativity
Collaboration
The apps are adapted to different age needs and interests:
3 to 5 years: simple games that reinforce the importance of identifying basic shapes on the screen, using the physical wooden blocks.
4 to 6 years: amazing challenges that requires children to build objects with real wooden blocks to complete challenges on each level.
Above 5 years old: even more challenging levels that require collaboration to complete the assignments and help the characters to escape.
Magikbee recently finished an Indiegogo crowdfunding campain for Magik Play, while they didn’t meet their goal- Magikbee is determined to continue their work and are proud to announce that Magikbee is going to be part of the 3rd Startup Braga/FLAD Acceleration Program.
