Gifting DragonBox Apps

Whether it be a holiday, birthday or special event, there’s always an occasion to give the gift of math!

If you’re like many parents we know, you’ve done Duplos.  Dolls.  Craft kits and stuffed animals.  Maybe your imagination is flagging.  Which is where we come into play.  At DragonBox, we believe the very best gifts aren’t just irresistible to play with; they also nurture young minds.  If you agree, DragonBox should be in your gift rotation.   

Gifting an App is Easy

iPhone or iPad

Simply follow these easy steps to purchase the app as a gift via the App Store:

  1. Launch the App Store app on your iPhone or iPad.

  2. Choose the app you want to buy (quick links below). To browse all of the DragonBox Apps, see our full profile HERE.

    DragonBox Elements (Geometry) 

  3. Next to the buy button, click on the downward facing arrow.  

  4. Tap Gift in the menu that pops up.

  5. Fill out the email of the parent who manages the device and write a cheerful message.

 

Android Devices (Google Play Store)

You may already know that you cannot directly gift an app through Google Play.  No need to fret.  Simply purchase a gift credit or gift card and tell the child or parent that it is for the DragonBox App they desire. 

Here is how you can buy a gift credit: 

  1. Open the Google Play Store app.

  2. Tap Menu 'Send gift'.

  3. Pick your gift and follow the onscreen instructions to buy and send your gift.

The gift will be sent via email.  If the receiver can't find the email with the gift code, you can forward them your copy of the gift email.

Note: This feature is only available in the United States.

If you live outside of the U.S. and would like to gift a DragonBox App, you can easily do so by buying a Google Play Gift Card.  See here for details about how you can send this to that special someone.

Remember, you can give the gift of math anytime of the year.  It also makes a perfect birthday present.  At Easter, forgo the chocolate bunny.  When you’re struggling to come with a creative gift idea, think math.  


Now, relax.  Enjoy, for a just a moment, this thrilling thought: You’ve just dodged a trip (or three or four) down the toy aisle.
