PBS KIDS recently announced its first app of 2015, The Tree Problem, which follows Peg and her sidekick Cat as they embark on adventures, solve problems and learn foundational math concepts and skills. The app, designed for kids ages 3-6, extends the series’ preschool math curriculum through a new series of games in which players help Peg get Cat out of a tree in a variety of different locations from the show.
I received a free code to check this app out and I think that younger children will enjoy it! It’s fun and a great app to teach preschool math! I give it 5 stars!
The Tree Problem App Features
- 30 total levels: Cat sure has a knack for getting stuck in trees! Levels of increasing challenge motivate children to practice key early math concepts and skills.
- 6 worlds: Grow plants on the farm, roll and stack snowballs at the South Pole, and arrange set pieces on Broadway! Each world offers new levels, giving children a variety of opportunities to solve the problem.
- Curriculum focus: Peg and Cat’s spirited and playful antics engage children in learning foundational math concepts like spatial reasoning and measurement, practicing persistence, and having a totally awesome time doing it!
The Tree Problem App is available for $2.99 on the App Store for iPad or at www.AppStore.com/PBSKIDS.
Self Disclosure: I received a free download code to check this app out but no other compensation was received.
