Description

This app is for all junior geologists.
***** Children's Technology Review Editor's Choice *****
The Earth is an interactive model that lets kids study geology and ecology. Kids explore and play with the geological forces that change the Earth—above and below the surface, in minutes and over millions of years. Kids can also learn about conservation as they test clean energy sources, clean up beaches, and preserve forests.
The Earth is No. 5 in Tinybop’s Explorer’s Library. Each Explorer’s Library app lets kids explore the invisible and awesome wonders of STEM. Kids (and kids at heart!) develop foundational science literacy.
"This is a great way to let children informally and playfully discover some of the big ideas they’ll encounter later on in their school curriculum. Apps like this one are good reminders for why you spent hundreds of dollars on a phone or tablet for your child." — Warren Buckleitner, editor, Children's Technology Review

Doesn’t work

TeddSpace on

United Kingdom

I bought quite a few tinybop apps, it seems they don’t work very well! The space one keep crushing, this one just blank.... very disappointed!!!

Not very good

Souxies on

United Kingdom

I’m not going to be a good person because of you but I don’t want to play you because you making me not a good person it’s a pretty boring game 😕😤🤬😡

Not much info or fun

JuschMo on

United Kingdom

What you see on the picture/the video on the app store is what you get: a few pictures that you can tap so something moves but not much explanation or any games. My four year old found this very hard to use (it is not very easy to find the next animation) and except for the vulcano he wasn't much interested.

Needs A Guide

Torrtilla on

United Kingdom

So, I saw the app, and thought it looked really awesome, because you could build windmills, oil tankers, drills, etc. But what do I find? NONE OF THAT. All you can do is tap some stuff, and there are NO windmills, or anything. What happened to the white bar on the right?? Has potential, but not worth the money, yet.

Loving the "see inside" boxes

Gomador on

United Kingdom

Also loving exploring a huge map

Confused

Caaaawwwwwaaaaap on

United Kingdom

I give this a 4star because it looks really good but I can't seem to be able to get it to work. It's very educational and looks like it has a good meaning. If anyone knows how this works (like in how to get he white side bar on the right etc) please say🙂

Amazing

AN0rt on

United Kingdom

"This is so incredible!" says my autistic ten year old daughter, "You've got to see this!" She is absolutely amazed by this app, what she is learning about the world, and how she can interact with it. This app is quite incredible. If only school had the same effect!

Potential, but...

Gamer73819035 on

United Kingdom

It grabbed my attention for 10 minutes, but then I asked myself, what is the point of this game? I was completely confused about what I was meant to be doing, and I did everything available in under half an hour. Looking at the video, I thought it looked promising, yet it just disappointed me. I like how you teach about the Earth, but I didn't know what to do. Maybe include a tutorial for the fist few minutes? It has potential, just not quite there.

This game is good it supports the earth

Twincity35 on

United Kingdom

This game is good it supports the earth

Disappointing

Africa111111 on

United Kingdom

Wish I had read the reviews of this before buying. Will not keep children entertained for hours and there is not 'an endless landscape' to discover. The fun and learning potential of this app is exhausted in minutes - half an hour max. It looks good but does not deliver. Wish I had spent money on something good instead :-(
