Finally, screen time you feel good about.
Little Genius Starter Kit + Early Math Adventure



Real families, real play
Little geniuses in real homes — shared by our community.
















Screen time can actually be good for kids
Little Genius turns passive watching into active building — kids use real, colorful pieces to spell, draw, and solve, turning playtime into preschool.
A skill behind every game
A gift they’ll actually keep playing with
Most toys get a week of attention, then the toy box. Little Genius keeps kids coming back — because they’re building, spelling and counting, not just watching. It arrives ready to gift in one box and works with the iPad they already have.

Read article →It didn’t even cross my oldest son’s mind that this was an educational tool — he thought he was just playing a new fun game.
Read article →To say I am impressed with the Osmo Little Genius Starter Kit* is an understatement and not just because it helps with my mummy guilt. I have not seen Kipper so engaged with an educational toy before.

What families are saying
Little has loved it!
Pretty straight forward and easy to set up with the cool little feature of them being magnetic and sticking together so they don't get lost! Super worth the cost with the amount of games you get to play.
Fantastic learning game that truly engages a 3-year-old
The hands-on pieces combined with the iPad make learning feel like play, and it keeps my child engaged far longer than typical screen time. … my child is touching shapes, forming letters, and thinking through solutions rather than just tapping.
This is AMAZING!
I have a very rambunctious 4-year-old boy who was struggling with knowing his letters. … I had bought the alphabet flash cards and he had zero interest in them. … From the get-go he loved it! The bear gives encouraging feedback and asks the child if they want to try again if it doesn't match.
This game is great!
We also have the older-kid version (Genius Kit) … when my niece (3 years old) tried to play the older one, she was too young. For her 4th birthday, we gave her this Little Genius kit, and it was perfect for her age!
Questions, answered
No — the Osmo Base, reflector and all the games are included (no subscription needed). The only thing you add is your own iPad.
Check your exact iPad ›It works with most iPads from 2017 on — any iPad running iPadOS 15 or later. And if the one at home isn’t supported, returns are free, so there’s no risk. (The original iPad 1–4, iPad Air 1st gen and iPad mini 1–3 aren’t supported.)
Every game is designed for ages 3–5 — in both the Little Genius Starter Kit and the Early Math Adventure add-on. It's built for pre-readers, so kids play by matching, building and drawing with their hands — no reading or writing needed yet. And each game adjusts as they grow, so a 3-year-old and a 5-year-old each get the right level of challenge.
It’s hands-on and away from the glass. Kids play with real pieces on the table while the screen reacts to them.
You’re covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee and free returns.
Yes — the games support multiple child profiles, and the physical pieces naturally invite side-by-side play (older siblings love jumping in). One kit covers the whole family.
It makes a birthday or holiday present that actually gets played with, not shelved. It works with most iPads (iPadOS 15 or later), sets up in a couple of minutes, and comes with free returns within 30 days if it's not the right fit for their family.
