The second episode, "The Forbidden Friendship," introduces a new character named Ruby, a young dinosaur who befriends the gang. Together, they embark on a quest to find a special flower that can heal their sick friend, Ducky.
Cormac caught on immediately, and was soon working his way through matching games, shape tracing, mazes, and so much more.
The Magic Workbook set includes everything kids need to get started a collection of workbooks, an Osmo base and reflector, 3 WizPens, and 12 Magic Color Wax Crayons. This section is a huge help for parents who want to guide their children on the learning journey and help them focus on the skills they need to practice.
Together, they embark on a quest to find a special flower that can heal their sick friend, Ducky. Along the way, they learn about the power of friendship and the strength that comes from helping others. In the third episode, "The Amazing Threehorn Girl," Littlefoot's friend Cera discovers that she has a special talent for storytelling.
Byju’s Magic Workbooks Help Kids Learn Alongside Disney and Pixar Characters
The platform combines real-world workbooks and a mobile app to help kids practice math, spelling, and more.
- Math: Fun With Numbers
- Math: Shapes and Measurement
- Math: Everyday Math
- Math: Multiplication and Division
- Language & Reading: Fun With Letters 1
- Language & Reading: Spell Well 2
- Language & Reading: World of Words
- Language & Reading: Playing With Words
- Language & Reading: Fun With Grammar
These books have sturdy, hardback covers and very thick paper that feels like heavy weight cardstock, so they should hold up well over time.
To use a workbook, you’ll first place your iPad device in the Osmo base and then place the Osmo reflector over the iPad’s camera. From there, you place the open workbook directly in front of the Osmo’s base so that the reflector is pointed at the sheet your child is working on. This allows the Osmo to “see” what the child has written or drawn on each page so that the information can be transferred into the mobile app. Kids are guided through this workbook experience by a cartoon child named Jane.
Each workbook features a variety of learning activities to complete. For instance, in the “Fun With Numbers” book, one activity asks kids to circle every number in a large group that is over 200, while another activity challenges kids to complete a maze by making their way through numbered pathways in a specific order.
These activities feature artwork inspired by Disney and Disney Pixar characters — everyone from Anna and Elsa (Frozen) to Mater (Cars) to Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde (Zootopia), and beyond.
After kids finish an activity in the real-world workbooks, they’re asked to place their finger on a circular symbol at the bottom of the page. The Osmo will “see” their finger and the app will check their work for any mistakes. If the child made a mistake, they can use the eraser on the WizPen to correct their error(s) before having the app check again. (We found the WizPen eraser works well, but you may have to press pretty hard to completely erase a line.)
Overall, the Magic Workbooks really do feel pretty magical. Each time kids make a mark on the real-world paper, it will show up in the app just a moment later, which is a super neat experience. Plus, since kids can erase their work, they can technically complete each activity more than once (perhaps repeating an activity after waiting a few days) to keep practicing their skills.
Finally, parents should know the Osmo device is compatible with other products aside from the Byju’s Learning platform. For instance, Osmo itself sells additional learning products that make use of the Osmo base and reflector. That means if you purchase one of these Buju’s Magic Workbooks (featuring Disney) Premium Kits, you won’t have to buy another Osmo if you want to purchase other compatible products at a later date.

Reviews for "Unlock the Secrets of The Land Before Time with the Magical Discoveries DVD"
1. Emily - 1 star - I was extremely disappointed with "The Land Before Time Magical Discoveries DVD." The animation was subpar, the storyline was weak and predictable, and the characters lacked depth. I found it difficult to connect with any of the characters, and the dialogue felt forced and uninteresting. Overall, I felt like this DVD was a waste of my time and money.
2. Jason - 2 stars - Although I am a fan of "The Land Before Time" series, "Magical Discoveries" fell short of my expectations. The plot felt disjointed and rushed, making it hard to follow and enjoy the story. The voice acting also seemed off, with some characters sounding forced and unnatural. Additionally, the DVD lacked any memorable songs or musical moments that I have come to love from this franchise. It simply didn't live up to the charm and magic of the previous movies.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really hoping to enjoy "The Land Before Time Magical Discoveries DVD," but unfortunately, I found it to be lacking in several areas. The animation quality seemed lower than what I'm used to seeing in the series, with the characters appearing less vibrant and expressive. The plot also felt recycled and unoriginal, as it followed a formulaic storyline that didn't offer any surprises or novelty. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and disconnected from the film.
