Creates interactive educational play experiences

About Osmo

Osmo creates educational and interactive play experiences for children, focusing on early learning and elementary school age groups. The company offers a play system that combines physical play pieces with digital apps, allowing children to engage in hands-on learning while using screens in a productive way. This approach promotes 'healthy screen time' by encouraging active participation rather than passive consumption. Osmo sells starter kits, expansion packs, and individual games that cover subjects like math, spelling, coding, and creativity, along with subscription services for additional content. Revenue comes from direct sales on their website and partnerships with retailers and educational institutions. Osmo also fosters a community through the Osmo Social Club, which helps build brand loyalty and expand its reach.
