Cypher Kids is the “Coolest New Way to Learn and Play.” (Review)


 

Harnessing the creative power of augmented reality technology, there is a new line of 3D learning products for kids ages 3 and up.  Grouped by subject matter, the first series of Cypher’s Live 3D Interactive Cards will be available in July and will cover the basic building blocks of learning, to include Colors & Shapes, Letters, and Numbers, as well as popular categories like Wild Animals and Things That Go!

Each card comes with its own 3D marker that when held up to a web cam, initiates an interactive animation sequence that can be seen in 3D.  For example, in the Wild Animals pack, AR technology lets lions roar as they stalk across the savannah and polar bears hunt seals from the ice pack – all in the palm of your child’s hand.  Each pack contains 18-26 different cards that are filled with informative facts, cool sounds and special commands that let kids control their new 3D world!


   



My Thoughts:

After reading a press release about Cypher's Live 3D Interactive Cards, I couldn't wait to get my hands on a sample to try out with Savannah.  I was sent Cypher's Live 3D Wild Animals interactive cards set last week, and have been having a blast bringing the wild animals on the cards to life.  At first, it took a little getting used it, as you have to position the interactive cards just right, in order for them to be read right.  But, after we got the hang of it, my husband and I found ourselves glued to the computer, as we learned about some amazing wild animals.  

Even though the animals don't jump out of the screen like the You Tube video shows, the 3D effect of these animals coming to life is incredible.  It is amazing what new and innovative products are available for children.  Although Savannah and her little sister are too young to play with the Cypher's Live 3D interactive cards by themselves it, I know in time they will enjoy them.  We had a great time spending quality time together as a family, and learning about the wild animals from Cypher's Live 3D.  I can't wait to pick up a few more of these interactive card packs for the girls, and to give as gifts this year.

If you love offering your children fun and unique ways of learning about wild animals,  colors and shapes and numbers and letters, then you need to check out Cypher's Live 3d interactive cards, when they become available this July.  You will find yourself pulling up a seat alongside your child(ren), as they interact with the cards through the web cam.
