Pengu

me & my boyfriend download this app to raise a kid together it really helps you prepare in the future it’s kind of alike but not really but it’s very fun to play.

Love this

Me and my husband are practicing and competing for our unborn child

Worst ever

I thought it would be like chat gpt but better because it would explain things better to you and you have to have like a pengu
Pass or premium or whatever and I haven’t gotten to use the superhero guy yet I don’t know if it’s just for one day or if I’m gonna get to talk to that superhero guy tomorrow, but I just thought it would be better so it also doesn’t tell you anything about premium and Pengu pass when you first get it so
