Spatial Kids 4+

I am an engineering professor and K-12 STEM specialist and Spatial Kids is undoubtedly the best hands-on iPad app ever developed for elementary students that authentically teaches spatial visualization skills in a fun, visually appealing way. I recommend the Spatial Kids app to all elementary school teachers that I work with because the app teaches, assesses, and automatically gives feedback to the student about his/her touchscreen sketches. I use it with my own children since they were in 1st grade with great success. I use the adult version with my own college engineering students, also with great success because it effectively teaches Spatial visualization skills that are so critical to students' success in STEM, especially engineering, careers.

I love that there is little more wiggle room for finger sketching. I’d really love a way to manage multiple profiles, or at least export and clear app data quickly. I am using this for research on spatial skill development in 3rd - 5th grade girls and these features would greatly improved the utility of the app.
