Finding new ways to have fun while helping my son develop his motor and reasoning skills is very important to me. It’s a way to bridge his educational therapy at school with home and strengthen his understanding of the alphabet, shapes, colors and more.?I was really grateful to try?out PUZZINGO, an interactive puzzle app for?Smartphones and Tablets. It’s rated one of the best kids apps by Chicago Tribune and boasts over 100?puzzles filled with cars, dinosaurs, trains, princesses, food and more!
Getting started on PUZZINGO is really simple. You can download the App from the Play Store, iTunes Store or Amazon.?Once you arrive at the Welcome screen you will see other options. You can find other Apps by 77SPARX (creators of PUZZINGO), read the letter to parents or enter to start playing!
If you have a coupon code, you can enter it by tapping on the MENU word 5 times. Any of the choices for parents requires consecutive tapping to keep children from accidentally tapping the options on their own.
The puzzles on PUZZINGO are amazing! They are fully interactive from the point where you choose your puzzle by shaking a present box, to completing one and helping?it to drive, fly and various other actions. My favorite is making the cakes and my son’s is building the cars.
While connecting the pieces it will tell you which each of them are. My son has learned the pieces to jeeps, planes, trains along with helping me decorate crazy cakes.

PUZZINGO is a wonderful option for helping children with autism, developmental delays and special needs. The video and audio cues throughout the app help make it completely accessible.?The puzzles include core concepts such as ABC alphabet, shapes, colors, numbers, and music. Plus, there is a new FREE Daily Puzzle Preview everyday!
This has been such a life savor when going out to places he doesn’t want to go or when he has to wait for me. You know how children act when they get antsy running errands, now I don’t have that problem! You can save yourself a little bit of sanity too by checking it out on iTunes.
