A real-clock night-sky journal for ages 6–8: MoonPals works out tonight's Moon phase on your device (from the date only — no location, no accounts), you predict tomorrow, then check the real sky. A month grid fills in as you watch, and Sol and Pip the owl explain why the Moon changes shape. Grade-1 patterns in the sky (NGSS 1-ESS1).
