## Description

Get your child excited about learning and solving puzzles! SAMSQURES is designed to create challenges that the children actually enjoy solving!

SAMSQUARES is the new app that embeds findings in educational neuroscience and psychology into digital learning games for children aged 6 to 10. 

SAMSQUARES was inspired by the work of Samuel C Kohs, an American psychologist who developed Kohs Color Cubes test. His work with children helped inspire a new approach to spatial reasoning and learning through puzzles. 

We are a small team of an educator and a developer. Questions? Concerns? Please feel free to connect with us: info@mathoutsidethebox.com
