Simple to use, yet packs lots of info for the little ones to understand

@andreea_natapov Thank you!! We spent a lot of time trying to distill the concepts so that we are always leaving kids with one or two key takeaways. The idea is not to overwhelm them and in this initial version to simply foster a sense of curiosity about the world. For example in the concrete mixer it's the spiral blade that turns one way to mix concrete and simply turns in reverse to push it up and pour it out of the truck! such a simple and ingenious concept that any kid canunderstand and yet most adults dont even know that it workls this way (I had no idea that it worked like this!). Down the line we will have more advanced options to allow older kids to learn more about the systems that will peak they curiosity, learn more about the inventors and their process, see how this inventions are interconnected in unexpected ways!

Fantastic idea!! Lots of potential to be used in classrooms for self-directed learning or just plain fun :) keep it up!!

Did you recently have to google an answer to a question by a 4 year old? if so this app will be your best friend! My 4 year old son asked me how a snowblower worked in our garage and I realized to my great embarrassment that I had not the slightest idea how to answer this question! Zizzle inventions was born as the big answer to this small question. We know from first hand experience that kids are fascinated with inventions like elevators, escalators, toilets, toasters and more. They are so curious about them because they are familiar to them and yet they work in ways that appear almost magical. When kids ask "How does is work" they are asking a STEM question. But in a time they are absolutely ready to be introduced to these awesome simple yet ingenious solutions, SO many parents (myself included) simply don't have a good answer prepared! SO, with Zizzle inventions we wanted to introduce complex STEM concepts in a simple and fun way early on. We made it interactive so that after watching a short animation explaining the invention kids get to break it apart and build it back together. It works because kids really love exploring the inventions and are able to grasp some of the concepts along the way. We really are proud of what we have created so far BUT we just launched on the App store + Google Play a month ago and being small and independent we need all the feedback and help we can get! If you would be willing to take a few minutes out of your day to check us out and give us some honest constructive feedback you would really make our day!

Very good start. Awesome idea to mix in the puzzle play with the key pieces of evey invention. Answers some of things my kids ask me. Looking forward to more inventions.

@boris_podlubniy Thank you!!! In the very beginning we did a play test with cardboard cutouts of the different inventions and kids LOVED breaking it and putting it back together ! We are working on adding more options for true tinkering as we continue to build the game!
