FAQ

Questions parents ask

Which GlowCub game suits my child’s age?

Every child is different. It depends on how your child is developing and how early they started playing games or watching cartoons, so treat the ages below as a rough guide. Our games are played by everyone from 1-year-olds to grandparents.

Are GlowCub games educational?

Yes, all of them. These are learning games for kids where the learning is built into the play rather than shown as a lesson, so children stay interested. Almost every action, from solving a puzzle to helping a character in trouble, trains a skill. Here is what children practise in each game:

    • colors and shapes
    • counting and simple sums
    • letters and first words in English
    • animals, plants and caring for nature
  • LooLoo Kids: World
    • fine motor skills: tapping and dragging
    • memory: finding matching pairs
    • spatial thinking: puzzles and connect-the-dots
    • sense of rhythm and music
    • attention and focus
  • Booba: Cooking Show
    • following steps in the right order
    • sorting and matching ingredients
    • fine motor skills: slicing, stirring and swiping
    • creativity when putting the dish together
    • names of fruit, vegetables and dishes
  • Robocar Poli: City Games
    • empathy and kindness: noticing when someone is in trouble and helping
    • teamwork with the Robocar rescue team
    • problem solving: choosing the right tool for the job
    • how rescue teams act in an emergency
  • Robocar Poli: City Building
    • sequencing: what comes first and what comes next
    • spatial thinking while building
    • cause and effect
    • taking care of things: a neat yard and a clean car
  • Robocar Poli: Postman Games
    • planning: packing a parcel and choosing a route
    • reading a simple map and finding the way
    • attention to detail when wrapping and sorting
    • responsibility and helping others
What are good educational games for a 2-year-old or 3-year-old?

For toddlers we recommend our LooLoo Kids games. They have simple controls made for little hands and no third-party ads:

Are there games that teach letters, numbers, colors and shapes?

Yes. LooLoo Kids: Learning Academy is an early learning game for toddlers and preschoolers with six topics:

  • colors
  • shapes
  • numbers and simple sums
  • the English alphabet and first words
  • animals and where they live
  • plants and harvesting

Each topic has three short steps and a bubble-pop mini-game, so learning feels like play.

Are there games that teach kindness and emotions?

Yes. In Robocar Poli games every mission is about helping someone in trouble. Children notice how a character feels, help them and work as a team, which supports social and emotional learning:

Are there car games for boys and girls?

Yes. Our three Robocar Poli games are car games for kids, loved by boys and girls alike. Children play with Poli, Roy, Helly and Amber, the rescue team of robot cars:

Yes. In Robocar Poli: City Building children rebuild Broomstown after a tornado:
