ABOUT TIMBUKTU
Timbuktu makes digital toys for creative learning. We promote imagination as a tool to discover the world. Best of all, we do it through games that don't overstimulate children but let them learn through creative play in a peaceful and relaxing mode. All our products are designed in Milan and developed in San Francisco.
Supposedly this is for kids, but I love the content, play, and the recipes too!!! I will definitely use this with older elementary kids in the kitchen. There are 10 pizza recipes that are presented by Oscar, the cute little Timbuktu chef. In this app, once a recipe is chosen, you have access to the ingredients, and must be able to remember them and then sequence the recipe properly to successfully make a pizza. You can recall the recipe if you get stuck at any time. Once done, serve it to Eegor, who will let you know if it is delishie or NOT! There are links to other apps by Timbuktu placed under a discreetly placed button. Love this app!
Choose a pizza on the menu, follow the directions, serve it to Eegor... Simple, no? But if you don't make it right, he'll be very unhappy with his pizza! It's a silly game that almost doesn't feel educational at all, but it really is. Following directions is an important skill, and this will entertain your little one while fostering that skill.
My 3 yr old likes this app, but even my 6 yr old has a hard time being successful at making the pizza correctly. I think it's the putting the salt on that is difficult to tell if its right. The monster is a little too rude at the end if the they get it wrong as well.
What I love about this app is that kids see the recipe and then it disappears. It is a fun way of working on memory skills
I would recommend this game to everyone of all ages! It has lots of fun features. Perfect for anyone who loves cooking or just likes to make pretend pizzas!
I bought this app for my class based on a "since you liked"... from the Toca Kitchen app, which my kiddos love. They get frustrated with this app when the monster doesn't like what they make based on some of the (frankly gross-sounding) recipes. I like that there are recipes for the kids to follow, but it would be nice if they could try out some of their own creations!
