You see a real job, guess the answer, then watch the worker compute it and explain. Applied arithmetic + a look at real careers. On-device, no accounts.

Meet the tricky little words, for ages 6–8. Some words — said, to, he — have ONE part that makes a surprise sound; the rest you can sound out. HeartPals shows the word, lets you hear it, and asks you to mark the surprise part — then gives the friendly reason why. No memorising whole shapes, no score. On-device, no accounts.

Learn, blend, read, and TEACH — sounding-out practice for ages 6–8. Meet a few sounds, blend a word, read a little sentence made only of sounds you know, then teach a reading pup how one word works. Teaching it is how you remember it. No memorising, no score, no rush. On-device, no accounts.

Change one sound to make a new word — sounding-out practice for ages 6–8. Turn cat into cot into cog into dog, one little sound at a time, while Snuffle the mole tunnels along your word chain. Every word is one you can sound out. No memorising, no score, no rush. On-device, no accounts.

Meet the five Vowel Sisters — for ages 3–5. Press to hear a little word, then tap the sister whose sound you hear in the middle: cat is Ava, dog is Ollie. Then watch Magnet-E work her magic — cap becomes cape, and the sister sings her name! No reading needed, no score, no rush. On-device, no accounts.

Correlation is not cause — train the moves that tell them apart, for ages 15–18. Take a real observation and pick the soundest move: find the mechanism, run the counterfactual, name what would falsify it, or spot the hidden confound — then weigh every shape the pattern could really be. No score, no streak. On-device, no accounts.

Real science at your kitchen table, for ages 6–8. Guess what will happen, then TRY it for real with things you already have — fizzy volcanoes, dancing raisins, colors that spread. Cricket the curious cousin never tells you the answer; she just asks great questions. Print a lab card, draw what you saw, and find out WHY. No score, no rush. On-device, no accounts.

Become a reading coach — for ages 9–14. Poco, a younger reader, gets a little stuck on a word, and YOU pick the best way to help: say the sound, model the blend, tap it out, or cheer the strategy. Coaching a reader is one of the best ways to lock the sounds in for yourself. Print a session card and run it with a younger buddy. On-device, no accounts.

A cozy bedtime story you help tell — for ages 3–5. Tap the lantern and listen: a sleepy star, a firefly flying home, the Moon making a blanket. At each turn YOU choose what happens next with a big picture button — no reading needed, the story reads itself aloud. Every path ends softly. No score, no rush, no autoplay. On-device, no accounts.

A family history you gather yourself, for ages 9–14. Pick an interview question, ask a grandparent or a parent out loud, and write down what you learn — no recording, nothing leaves your device. Willow the storykeeper helps you build a family timeline and a printable family book that YOUR family owns. Diaspora-identity + a homeschool capstone.

Direct an AI agent — the skill for the agent era, ages 15–18. You write the brief; a deterministic on-device agent does the work and shows its whole trace. Agents make confident mistakes: a fabricated citation, a wrong unit, an off-brief detour, a leaked detail. Catch them and fix the BRIEF (not the output), then re-run until it runs clean. Specification, verification, accountability. On-device, no cloud calls.

Epidemiology you can run, for ages 15–18. Pick a synthetic outbreak, predict what happens, then a deterministic SIR/SEIR model computes it — the curve, R₀, the herd-immunity threshold. Then decide: vaccinate, reduce contact, and weigh cases prevented against the cost of restriction. No made-up people are harmed and there's no single right answer. On-device, synthetic populations only.

Linear algebra you can see, for ages 15–18. A 2×2 matrix is a transform of the plane — rotate, stretch, shear, reflect, flatten. Predict where a point lands, then watch the matrix move a shape: the determinant is how much it scales area, and the eigenvectors are the directions that don't turn. The on-ramp to the maths behind AI — a matrix is a neural layer. On-device, exact arithmetic.

The science of your sleep, for ages 15–18. Pick a schedule and the two-process model shows your alertness hour by hour — when you'll be sharp, when you'll crash — plus your week's sleep debt. Then test a claim: does a later school start or a screen-free bedtime really help? Sleep as a science topic, not a tracker: nothing is recorded, and it's not medical advice.

The mystery none of you can solve alone, for ages 9–14. Four detectives each hold a different kind of evidence — the map, the ledger, the witness notes, the timeline — and the case cracks only when you POOL your clues on a shared board. Talk in clues, not chat (no typing). Play solo (all four roles) or pass-and-play with 2–4 friends. Cooperative deduction where teamwork is the whole point.

A calm number-fact journey for ages 6–8 — the friendly opposite of the battle-and-paywall math apps. Trek's caravan walks one oasis forward each time you know a fact by heart; Dot the fennec shows every new fact as a ten-frame or an array first, so it means something before you memorize it. Adaptive on-device practice with no battles, no timers, no limits — and it never takes a step back.

A ScratchJr-style block-animation studio for ages 6–8: snap Move, Look, Say and Repeat blocks onto Zip the robot, press Run, and watch your program go. Copy your dance as a little cartridge code to share, or paste a friend's to remix — no accounts, no server, nothing to buy; everything stays on your device.

A cozy map-your-own-walk toy for ages 3–5: tap places to build a trail in order, say how you got to each one (straight, left, right, over, under), then Compass the fox walks it and reads every step aloud. Walk home and discover left becomes right. Your map is a little code to print or share — no GPS, no camera; nothing leaves your device.

A gentle pet to look after, for ages 3–5 — the kind, calm opposite of the rush-back pet apps. Adopt a tortoise, budgie, or goldfish; feed it, give it water, play, and tuck it in. Come back a day or a week later and it is exactly how you left it — nothing goes hungry, nothing costs a coin, and there is no losing. On-device; nothing leaves your device.

A tiny puppet show for ages 3–5 that plays the kind way: nothing autoplays, every show pauses for a real-world task (find something red, do three stretches) until a grown-up taps 'we did it!', and the curtain closes at the end — no endless feed, no next-video trap. On-device; nothing leaves your device.

A free leveled reading library for ages 6–8 — read up from Sprout (sound-it-out) to Grower (little stories) to Reader (bigger stories), with read-to-me and tap-a-word. Earn a Reading Passport stamp for every book you finish AND tell back — never for minutes on a clock. On-device; nothing leaves your device.

A commonplace book you keep in your own words. Read a short idea and where it comes from, then — to keep it — say it your way (you cannot keep a gem just by tapping). Your gems live on this device, connect to each other with a "because", and come back another day so you remember them. No feed to scroll forever, no streak, no real brands, no account. Ages 9–14.

Read a short passage, write a summary, and Tote — a friendly novice who reads only your card — holds only the ideas your words carried. What Tote cannot hold is what your summary dropped, and the five losses show it: the number, the caveat, the cause, the who, and the contrast. Then rescue a loss and check again. On this device, no account, no feed, no real brands. Ages 9–14.

A little book of ideas you keep in your own words. Hear or read a short idea and where it comes from, then — to keep it — say it your own way (you cannot keep an idea just by tapping). Your ideas live on this device and come back another day so you remember them. No feed to scroll forever, no streak, no real brands, no account. Ages 6–8, made to hear out loud.

Keep a little something to remember together — and it comes back another day. Hear a short idea and where it comes from, say it back in your own words out loud, and a grown-up keeps it in your little box. Another day, the picture comes back so you remember it — no feed to scroll forever, no streak, no real brands, no account. Ages 3–5, made to do together and to hear out loud.

Run the famous experiments about how your brain fools itself — on YOURSELF. Guess the anchored number, fall for the bat-and-ball, meet the Linda problem. Each reveals the trap by name (anchoring, framing, base-rates, the peak-end rule…), tells you how sure scientists actually are, and shows the slow move that catches it. Once you can name a trick, you can beat it. No timer, no score to chase; on-device, no account. Ages 9–14.

Read a SQL query, predict the exact result set — which rows, in which order — then run it to check. QueryForge shows you a table and a query, and asks you to think through WHERE, ORDER BY, DISTINCT and LIMIT before you press run (the habit that catches a bug before it ships). Every wrong option is a real misreading the engine actually produces. No timer, no score to chase; on-device, no account. Ages 15–18.

A see-saw tips down on the heavier side — tap the block that makes it level. TeeterTots says everything out loud (no reading needed), the blocks are big to tap and easy to count, and there is no way to lose — a wrong tap just says "try another." Balancing the see-saw is the first taste of what equals means (the seed of algebra). On-device, no account. Ages 3–5.

For ages 6–8: hear a made-up ad and tap which trick it is doing to make you WANT it — "everybody has one", "hurry, only 3 left!", a "free" gift. Two big picture choices, read aloud, no reading needed. Then hear the ad said again in plain, honest words. No real brands, no timer, no score to chase. On-device; no account.

A confident AI assistant is right most of the time — and sometimes fluently, plausibly wrong. Solve a reasoning task, lock in YOUR answer first, then Glib gives its very-sure suggestion. Accept it, Verify it, or Override it — and see your reliance profile: where you leaned well, where you surrendered your own correct answer to a wrong one, where you distrusted a tool that was right. Calibrated reliance — knowing when to trust and when to check — is the skill nobody teaches yet. No timer, no score to chase; on-device, no account. Ages 15–18.

One warm feelings-talk a day, to share out loud with your 3-5-year-old. Ember the glow-worm lights the talk: show me the feeling, when did YOU feel it today, and here's mine too - then a tiny closing ritual. A picture-word to point at, read-aloud help, and nothing is ever saved. For grown-ups and little ones, together.

You are the Coder: give the Robot steps — Forward, turn Left, turn Right — then press Run and watch it walk the grid to the flag. RobotPals teaches the first idea of coding — an exact list of steps, run in order — with big buttons, sounds, and no way to lose (a bump just says "fix your steps and try again"). Play it with a friend: one codes, one is the Robot. On-device, no account. Ages 6–8.

Ever wonder how AI "writes"? Train a tiny model on a nursery rhyme, then predict what it will say next — and discover the secret: a language model just counts which word tends to follow which, then guesses the most common one. TokenTales builds a real (tiny) next-word model right in your browser — no chatbot, no internet, nothing leaves your device — so you can see exactly how the trick works, and even watch the model write. Ages 9–14.

The science of feeling-space. Place a word - nervous, content, restless - where you think it belongs on the map of pleasantness and energy, then see where thousands of real people put it, and reconcile why people disagree. Meridian the manta maps inner weather. Two axes, real rater norms, three-minute labs - and nothing you feel is ever saved. Ages 9-14.

Five ways to sort a list — and a surprise: the FASTEST one depends on the list. Meet Bubbly, Inserta, Scanna, Quicka and Merga, then predict how many comparisons each makes and watch the bars race. You will feel "Big-O" for yourself — why the simple sorter wins on an almost-tidy list, and why the clever one wins when the list is a mess. Real, tiny, deterministic sorters run right in your browser. Ages 9–14.

Two tasks. One shared counter. What could go wrong? Predict the smallest value a data race can produce, watch the exact interleaving that loses an update, then wrap it in an actor and see the race vanish. RaceForge enumerates every possible interleaving on your device — no guessing, no magic — so you can feel exactly what Swift 6 is protecting you from when it checks concurrency at compile time. Ages 15–18.

How many jelly beans fill that jar? How many breaths do you take in a day? You can guess almost anything — to within a power of ten — by breaking it into small pieces you CAN guess and multiplying. Meet Chunk, Bound, Round, Sanity and Unit, predict the order of magnitude, then watch your estimate land right next to the real answer. Real, tiny, deterministic maths — no calculator, no internet. Ages 9–14.

A qubit is just two numbers. A gate rotates them. Measurement squares them. That is the whole of quantum — no mysticism, exact arithmetic. Start in |0⟩, apply a gate, and predict the odds: 100%? a 50/50 coin? Watch two Hadamards cancel back to certainty (interference), then entangle two qubits into a Bell pair that always agree. QubitForge enumerates the exact amplitudes on your device. Ages 15–18.

Every feeling has a because. Bindi the bilby wonders "what happened?" - a warm daily feeling-and-cause talk to share out loud with your 3-5-year-old: guess why together, reveal some everyday becauses, then link it to your child's own day (and yours too). A picture-word to point at, read-aloud help, a printable Because Card - and nothing is ever saved. For grown-ups and little ones, together.

Multiply two primes: easy. Un-multiply their product: nearly impossible. That one gap is why your bank is safe. PrimeDojo walks you from clock arithmetic to a working RSA key you build, encrypt with, decrypt with — and then BREAK by factoring, all by hand and all on your device. Predict each step, then watch the maths. Ages 15–18.

The same thing can make two friends feel different - because they wanted different things. Rain starts: Jem wanted to stay dry (sad), Pia wanted to splash (excited). WantTots is a warm daily two-friend talk to share with your 3-5-year-old: see two wants and two feelings, then wonder what YOU would want (and what the grown-up wants too). A picture-word to point at, read-aloud help, a printable card - and nothing is ever saved. The first perspective-taking, for grown-ups and little ones together.

Where is your body right now - sleepy, calm, just-right, perky, or wiggly? DialTots is a big, tappable energy dial for your 3-5-year-old: slide from still to stirred-up, try a little body move at each stop, and learn that energy is its OWN thing (you can be a calm-happy or a wiggly-happy!). Spring the springtail rides the dial; a gentle wiggle wakes you, a slow breath settles you - never a wrong place to be. Read-aloud help, and nothing is ever saved.

When something is hard, put on your cape and become Brave You. CapeTots is a warm daily brave-moment talk for your 3-5-year-old: a new slide, a wobbly tower, a dark room - Thimble the mouse-knight asks "what would Brave You do?", then a tiny brave move (and "not yet" or "ask for help" are brave too). A printable cape, read-aloud help - and nothing is ever saved. The Batman effect, for grown-ups and little ones together.

Faces can fib! Meet Dapple the chameleon and learn that a smile is not always a happy feeling. Read the real clues - what a friend's body did, what they said, and what just happened - then guess the true feeling and check by asking. For ages 6-8: big buttons, read-aloud help, nothing to lose, and nothing is ever saved.

Feelings can move! When a feeling is stormy or heavy, meet Dart the dragonfly and try a nudge - breathe, get a grown-up, change what you look at, or just wait - and watch which way your sky moves. Never "get back to happy"; a calmer sky is a real win, and the feeling can still be there. For ages 6-8: big buttons, read-aloud help, and nothing is ever saved.

A rare disaster you can’t afford, swapped for a small cost you can — that trade is all insurance is, and it’s just maths. RiskDojo builds the whole idea from expected value up: the fair premium, the deductible, and the law of large numbers that lets a pool cover a rare big loss and still break even. Predict each number, then reveal the worked step — and run a pool yourself to watch adverse selection break it. Ages 15–18.

Selection has a direction; drift is pure luck — and in a small population, luck wins. DriftForge runs evolution on synthetic beetles: predict an allele’s frequency after a generation of selection, drift, migration or a bottleneck, then reveal the maths — and run 24 generations yourself to watch selection trace a smooth curve while drift wanders and a crash loses an allele by chance. Ages 15–18.

You can feel two things at once! Meet Teasel the jay and learn about mixed feelings - excited AND nervous, happy AND sad (bittersweet), proud AND tired. Read a moment, then pick BOTH feelings on the map. There's no single right feeling; both are real, and that's okay. For ages 6-8: big buttons, read-aloud help, and nothing is ever saved.

The same votes, redrawn, can hand one side twice the seats. DistrictForge shows how winner-take-all districts turn a 55% vote into all 5 seats — or just 2 — depending on who draws the lines, through packing and cracking. Predict the seats, then measure the gerrymander with the efficiency gap argued before the Supreme Court. Non-partisan (Violet vs Orange), all exact, all on your device. Ages 15–18.

Make a family feelings pact together! Meet Ribbon and the pact-friends, choose your promises - we ask before we guess, every feeling is okay, we breathe when it's big - then print it out and sign it by hand. The signed paper is the only record; nothing is ever saved on the device. For ages 6-8 and grown-ups, together.
