## What is NumberPlay?

Tap two number pals that make 10 and watch the dots fill a ten. Calm math games with no timer, no ads, and no tracking.

NumberPlay is free, with no in-app purchases. Each number pal is a number from 1 to 9 with a ten-frame belly, so children see how many as well as which number.

MAKE TEN
- Tap any two numbers that make 10. Each ten flies into a hundred, and every hundred earns a sticker to keep.
- No timer and no lives. A pair that doesn't make ten shows why on the board, then you simply try again.
- Help is one tap away and shows a little more each time it's asked.
- The game grows with your child: the first hundred uses a few friendly pairs, and later hundreds use them all.

ADDITION SPRINT
- An optional 60-second round for practicing facts your child already understands.
- One star for every right answer, with no speed bonus. A slip never loses a star.
- A rocket climbs toward your best, and the round's stars land in ten-frames at the end.

STICKERS
- A sticker for every hundred, in ten designs.
- Five more stickers, one for each pair that makes 10, earned by finding it without help over a few days.

MADE FOR CHILDREN
- The games are played with pictures, dots, and sounds, so children who are still learning to read can play.
- Each pal pops at its own pitch, dots tick as they move, and every ten lands with the same chime. Grown-ups can turn sounds off in the Settings app.
- Mistakes are safe, and help is always free.
- Works on iPhone and iPad, with VoiceOver, larger text, and Reduce Motion.

Short lessons to read together cover making 10, doubles like 6 + 7, finding the missing part, tens and ones, equal groups, word problems, and adding in your head.

No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No in-app purchases.
