Enter this app which gives just enough of a nudge to help you fill those spaces without asking anything too complicated of you. Think nursery rhymes and massage rather than over complicated sensory activities. Also if you like ticking things off there's a weekly checklist of activities tailored to your baby's age. There are explanations of the reasoning behind the suggestions too so helps you learn a bit about babies and their development. Would really recommend! ### 5/5 — Great ideas, simple to follow *2021-02-15, version 1.2.9* This is a great app for new parents if you are struggling for ideas and activities you can do to help your baby/child develop. The activities are easy to follow with clear research to back up why they are useful and how they can help child development. You don’t need a lot of fancy equipment to do many of the tasks, most of them use everyday items or just baby and yourself. Its great for parents who worry whether they are doing enough of the right activities at each stage of a baby/toddler’s development. ### 5/5 — Useful resource for parents and easy to use *2021-02-11, version 1.2.9* This app is really easy to use and has been such a useful resource to have when playing with my baby. As a mum of two boys under 4 years old, I want to play with my baby in a way that will stimulate him and help his development but I haven’t had the time to google ideas as I did for my oldest son when he was a baby. This app gives me daily suggestions of activities for my baby which are age appropriate and explains the science behind the activity and why it’s beneficial to the baby which is really interesting. The activities are simple and can be carried out easily at home without lots of props that you may not have at home. I’m no longer overwhelmed by websites giving lots of play ideas that aren’t suitable for my baby’s age and I’m confident that the activities we’re doing are the best for my baby. I would recommend this app to anyone wanting to play in a way that will support their baby’s development with scientifically evidenced ideas or simply a busy parent who would find it helpful to have a bank of valuable play activities at their fingertips. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2020-10-18, version 1.2.9* This is such a good app. I started using whilst pregnant and now using with my newborn. He is nearly 6 weeks and we love the daily activities. They are simple to do but very effective. My partner has started copying what I do with him and he feels more confident when interacting with our bundle of joy. As a primary school teacher I understand the importance of developing a child’s mind well before they start school. If you are passionate about nurturing your baby’s brain then definitely download this app. ### 5/5 — Highly recommended *2020-06-23, version 1.2.1* It can be easy to feel overwhelmed by all the things you think you should be doing with your baby, but you’re not sure when and how, however Oliiki breaks this down into one daily activity which is usually something that you might be doing anyway, yet the app explains why it is beneficial and gives you confidence as a parent that you’re doing something positive to aid your baby’s development. If you aren’t sure where to start but want some simple yet effective activities to do with your baby, Oliiki is the app! ### 5/5 — Incredibly Encouraging! *2020-05-31, version 1.2.1* I’m currently using the app with my baby-come-toddler. Really loving its interface and detail. We work on the range of activities together and practice variants each day. Such a motivating tool💛 x ### 5/5 — Great app backed by science *2020-05-20, version 1.2.1* This is a great app full of practical suggestions and really easy to use. It strikes a great balance between taking care of the baby and taking care of the person looking after the baby! Usually the Mum. I also love the links to the science. These are really interesting plus they give you confidence that the information -so simply laid out- is evidence based. Recommend highly! ### 5/5 — Every new parent needs this *2020-05-16, version 1.2.1* This app is brilliant - so simple yet so effective and I love that there’s information there to explain the reasons why some activities are important to do. When you inevitability run out of ideas on more challenging days this app is a much needed resource to take the stress out of being a new parent ### 5/5 — Brilliant app for busy parents *2020-03-03, version 1.0.2* This app is a great way to encourage your child’s continuous development in bite sized easy to do activities and is specific to your child’s age meaning the app grows with them! It’s fun and very informative too. ### 5/5 — Wow! *2019-04-14* Absolutely fantastic app! ### 5/5 — Amazing app. Really informative! *2019-03-29, version 1.0.1* I downloaded this app today after hearing about it on Facebook! Both my partner & I have enjoyed using it for both my 10 month old son & my baby bump that’s due in August. I definitely recommend this to any expectant parents or parents with children under 2! ### 5/5 — Innovative and exciting *2019-03-28, version 1.0.1* This app has really helped me understand how to get learning out of play. Stuff I was sort of doing anyway now makes more sense. It’s given me more confidence in the things I want to do with my child as well as given me loads of new fun ideas. Which is great for those days you just run out of things to keep them entertained! I never knew how much impact I could have on my child’s learning before. Would definitely recommend this app for all mums! ### 5/5 — Tiny tips and tricks for every day awesome teaching and learning tiddly tots. *2019-03-27, version 1.0.1* Ok so... parenting is tricky. You constantly feel pants and a bit guilty because you spend more time washing up and doing chores or wiping bolognaise out of your womb fruit’s eyes than anything else. Yes, you spend lots of time with them and entertain them but your mind is on a bazillionty one other things too and the little tiny moments you get when it’s just you and your favourite smallest person are a total treasure. They watch you with intent and mimic your movements, they find joy in the simplest of repeated actions and sometimes, just sometimes, it’s good to know you’re getting it totally spot on. Oliiki helps to gently structure a really simple and quick activity that can be as short or as long as your child’s attention span. Each activity uses the minimum amount of resources, things you have in the home anyway. These activities guide you to scaffold an idea and provide you with academic research that informs you about the development patterns of your child at the exact stage they’re at. I’m a primary teacher, trained in early years learning. The ideas and skills Oliiki share have helped to remind me about child language acquisition, motor skills, emotional and social development, early numeracy skills and so much more that will give your child the building blocks they need to be inquisitive and confident in asking questions about the world around them as they learn and grow, to help them solve problems they’ll encounter. It will also give you a tiny little snippet of smug if you look at Oliiki in the morning instead of Faceache (during your cold cuppa whilst small person covers the dog in Cheerios) safe in the knowledge that you’ll definitely be getting something bang on today. Maybe even lots of things. 😊 ### 5/5 — Excellent! Incredibly helpful, 10/10 would recommend *2019-02-21, version 1.0.1* This app has been so helpful to me in helping my find activities to do with my baby! I used to find it really difficult to think up things to do, but now I have a helpful and easy activity every day, and why it is useful to my baby. I love it! It is easy to use and the encouragements at the end of every activity always make me smile. Thank you! :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-07-22, version 2.0.2* I’ve just downloaded this app and can tell it’s one I’m going to keep going back to!! What an amazing tool for parents to help their little one learn and grow. Thank you ### 5/5 — Fabulous support for new parents (and grandparents!) *2024-07-20, version 2.0.2* As a first-time grand parent, I cannot recommend the Oliiki app enough! This app has been a game-changer in our household, providing daily play adventures that are easy to deliver and incredibly fun to share with my baby. The best part? All activities use simple items from around our home, making it super convenient. Every day, Oliiki introduces a new, engaging activity tailored to my grandbaby’s age. Seeing the joy on her face during these sessions is priceless, and knowing that these activities are designed to support their development in the crucial first 1000 days gives me immense confidence. The app clearly explains what my she is learning from each activity, which has been both enlightening and reassuring. This app is so supportive for all new parents looking to give their babies the best start in life. Highly recommended! ### 5/5 — Fab app for busy parents needing ideas *2024-06-04, version 2.0.2* I absolutely love this app!! Definitely the best parenting app out there. As a busy working mum, it’s so hard to constantly think of creative and fun activities that support your babies development on top of the endless tasks as a parent. This app has given me so many activities to do with my little boy! I’m also expecting a little girl in September so I will definitely be using this app throughout her first years as well! I’m just sad I didn’t come across this app until now. Would highly recommend to any mums or parents feeling that guilt that they don’t have the time or expertise to come up with things to do with their babies and toddlers that support their development! ### 5/5 — One of the best! *2024-05-16, version 2.0.2* I absolutely love this app! As a first time mum, I have had terrible anxiety around what I should be doing to support my little one’s development and finding new and fun ways to keep him entertained. I started the trail of Oliiki when I was still pregnant and loved it so much that I have since purchased the lifetime version and have enjoyed every minute of it. All of the activities are suggested based on research and aligned with baby’s age which is provide peace of mind and makes it very easy to use! I would highly recommend this app to any parents. Clare is also so lovely and extremely helpful and always willing to assist and go the extra mile. ### 5/5 — Loving Oliiki! Helpful resource *2023-06-06, version 2.0.2* Oliiki had been such a helpful resource to have with my first baby. The activities are bitesized and feel manageable - I love that it explains the science for you too. Recommend! ### 5/5 — Great App for Baby’s Development *2022-03-19, version 1.2.9* This app has such a range of activities and my baby has loved every one we have tried so far! I’ve really noticed it help with her learning and social development and the activities are a great way for me to bond with her. My toddler also likes to join in and do the activities with her, which is such a lovely way for them to bond too! We’ve tried lots of activities so far, but we still have so many to go it will keep us entertained for ages! I love that it tells you the reason for each activity and how it will aid baby’s development too! It’s a great app and I would definitely recommend to any new mums! ### 5/5 — Fantastic app *2022-02-28, version 1.2.9* I love this development app. It has given me a lot of ideas of things to do with my little boy and I have seen him since using the app. The activities are all very easy to do with minimal equipment required. I highly recommend this app and have told fellow mummy and mummy - to - be’s how great this app is. ### 5/5 — A realistic and insightful app *2022-01-07, version 1.2.9* I love this app. I have used so many baby apps but this is by far my favourite. The activities are short and easy to do. I have never felt I was very good at playing and relied on baby groups to help me play with my older two. This app is so helpful in a time when we can’t mix with other mums and babies as much as we would like. It gives you so many ideas of small activities and then tells you why they are good for your baby. I found this particularly helpful for my partner who originally felt a bit uncomfortable reading in funny voices or singing to our daughter. Once he realised he was helping her development, he was taking turns to do activities with her. I have noticed a huge difference since we started using the app. My daughter was slightly behind with her language skills and gross mobility but she has rapidly caught up since we used Oliiki. ### 5/5 — Wish we found Oliiki sooner! *2021-10-04, version 1.2.9* I am always stuck for activities to do with my 18 month old so this app is perfect for us! The app comes with easy daily guides of what to do and what you’ll need for each activity. I found these great as most of the resources needed are things you will already have around your home. This wonderful app has saved us so much time on google trying to find fun things to do that are beneficial to my little girls development. Overall I can really recommend trying this app out! As well as helping your little one learn through fun you will learn so much yourself about your little ones growth. Great job Oliiki! ### 5/5 — Highly recommended for parent and baby *2021-03-24, version 1.2.9* As a first time parent I felt overwhelmed by all the information out there on what activities would help develop my baby in those foundational years. Early childhood development is very important to my husband and I but being first time parents and having no background in this field made it challenging. The Oliiki app really solved this for us. What we love about it is that; - it’s tailored for our daughters age - there’s an activity for each day of the week which can range from taking a few minutes to longer, enabling you to feel like you have done something everyday no matter the time you have available - some of the activities are things that you as a parent are doing anyway. This aspect really improved my confidence as a parent as I often worried that I was clueless - engaging with your baby and knowing that what you are doing is so beneficial to them - Easy to use and I love the tick off function - the research behind every activity is so interesting and gives you confidence that you are helping your baby. I have recommended this app to every parent I know and just wish I had heard about it sooner when pregnant. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
