Science Educational Games with Max and Ruby

iPhone Screenshot 5

You don’t find too many science games for preschoolers, but this is a good one.  Max and Ruby is one of my sons favorite shows.  He was so excited to hear that they have a game with the characters from the show.  The game seems very easy at the beginning, but then it becomes more challenging as the player makes progress.   This game has good scaffolding, good graphics, good music, and most importantly good science.  My son loves it!

iGameMom writes that;

“I am a firm believer that science should, and can be taught at a very young age. I also agree it is challenging to teach science concepts to young kids. You have to convey the concept in a manner that young minds can understand and grasp. It takes the full understanding of science and early childhood education to perfect the task.  Max and Ruby Science Educational Games is a science app teaching preschool to kindergarten kids science concepts with fun engaging games.  It does wonderful job in conveying the science concepts via fun games.”

About Gaming and Education

Through my research, I have found that games are a powerful tool for learning for players of all ages. Last year I earned my doctorate in Educational Leadership at Azusa Pacific University. My dissertation was entitled - Higher Order Thinking Skills in Digital Games. I have presented my research at the annual convention of the California Educational Research Association. In addition to teaching, I assist other researchers who are working in the field of games and Learning.

  2. Is this games can be played and adapted for all of the students according to their developmental abilities?
