Not what I expected. – Team Umizoomi: Math Racer HD Review

When we saw the app on TV my son jumped and scream DAD CAN YOU GET ME THAT!!!! After seeing his reaction and excitement, how can a father refuse. Nonetheless, here is my input. 1. Price is too expensive. The app should have a demo version before we make the commitment. 2. The educational value is too far in between. To get to the Math, you have to swipe or tilt the iPad way too long. My son gets distracted easily, not because of ADHD but because he has to travel far to get to the math interaction, and collecting coins is not really that much fun. Attempting to self enhance the app, I count with him the number of coins he collects. I tried counting up and down. After 7 minutes he push the home button and started to play with another app. I'm afraid that he does not like the app.
