Alex The Handyman - Kids Educational App
Overall Score: 86/100
version reviewed: 1.1
reviewed:
Best for: Interactive play, Eye-hand coordination, Understanding of the world
What it is: 10 scenes with 15 simple activities (various household repair jobs).
What you do with it: choose a scene, identify the problem, choose the right tool and then complete the 'job', e.g. paint a wall with a paint roller, fix a broken vase with glue, fix a dripping tap with a wrench etc.
What we liked: the concept. Nice variety of tasks. Simple interactions. Ease of use. No distracting elements.
What we didn't like: no spoken instructions. The educational value could be much higher. Parental assistance recommended (for explanations). Some of the 'solutions' could be a bit misleading (e.g. fixing the electrical cord with a pair of side cutting pliers or putting out a small kitchen fire with a fire extinguisher).
