MiniSchool is a new educational kids app with an amazing collection of pedagogically valuable games for kids ages 4-7 years, therefore suitable for preschool children and children who are just starting school. MiniSchool offers a total of 6 various learning games, which are all presented in a very child friendly and cheerful game environment, thereunder maths games, a game to learn the time and games to learn words, rhymes and colors. Read on our review and find out what else to expect and find in the MiniSchool kids app.
Kids will instantly feel comfortable with the MiniSchool app, this is due to the happy music, the colorful graphics and the funny animal characters: a very friendly octopus teacher and an amusing lobster with a Mexican hat present all of the educational games, which means, they explain the different tasks, comment the inputs, encourage and praise kids with one of the best voice overs – that’s how we like it!
Overview of the Educational Games
The 6 educational games are presented as apps in the MiniSchool app, what we think is a really funny and cute idea. Some of the following games could have also been published as separate apps, considering their depth and size, but then we find it even nicer to discover such 6 in 1 games collection on the App Store.
Two Maths Games
Kids get to learn and practice addition, subtraction and multiplication in two of the various maths games, where they’ll need to feed Peter the Pelican with number fishes and turn Windy the Windmill and catch number bubbles. Sounds like great fun – and so it is!
Learn the Time
Underwater, Kids get to learn the time with the funny lobsters. They will need to set the clock hands to the mentioned time on a big analog clock. In the easy difficulty level, the position of the clock hands are indicated.
Learn the Colors
Into the realm of colors it goes with the game “learn the colors”, where kids get to color in various coloring pages and learn the names of colors. However, since there are only about 9 coloring pages to choose from and no free-hand drawing is possible, we find the coloring game a little too simple.
Learn to Rhyme and Play with Words
Kids also get to improve and further their language skills with the MiniSchool app. The Rhyme game is particularly interesting, because words that rhyme need to be found and combined. We’re also really fond of the other word game. Kids play a game of word pairs with Captain Walrus, which includes 70 various terms.
As you can see in this overview, some of the games are more suitable for preschoolers and others rather for school beginners (1st – 2nd Grade). All but one one of the games (learn to multiply) are suitable for children ages 4-7 years due to the three difficulty levels.

MiniSchool | Kids app rating
Fun whilst learning is of great importance in the MiniSchool app and we’re really fond of this! The big range of various educational games are designed with beautiful graphics, sounds and English voice overs and offer plenty of useful learning content, which is relevant for preschool and elementary school. Even if the coloring game is a little weak as it only offers 9 coloring pages and no difficulty levels, it still leaves us with 5 very strong and wonderful games, that we can certainly reward with 5 full stars.
Tip: Even if we can absolutely recommend you the full-version with all six games, we’ll also provide you a link to the “lite version” of MiniSchool, which includes two games (maths + colors), where you can test the app for free.
