Feedback from Earlier Participants
My 6-year old is currently doing one of the courses. I've been sitting with her to ensure that the content is good - and I must say that the content is great! Presented in a very engaging manner too. Kudos,Team LearnBuddy!
Learnbuddy is kid friendly learning tool engaging them in positive screen time. The quizzes have interactive questionnaire which make the learning fun. The course content was easy to follow for my 7 year old with little help. It is a great add on to school learning.
Hats off to team Learnbuddy for such simple yet one of the most engaging app! This is not a usual gaming app through which a kid can be occupied in the name of learning rather it inspires to read through before one could take up quirky quizzes and some out of the box puzzles. My kid has become regular user of this app and now I don't need to introduce him to GK, he is already playing it! Thanks once again and I would like to recommend it not only to the kids but to the parents too!
I am amazed to see the depth of material covered in online course. Not just my daughter but I am also learning the facts about festivals, personalities and places. Learnbuddy format is much much better than the GK book that we got from school.
