Read Wilder turns reading practice into family adventures for kids ages 6–10. Your child picks a mission, reads a short passage matched to their reading level, answers a comprehension question, and earns an offline family quest — a hands-on activity you do together, away from the screen. Every mission ends with a conversation, not more screen time. THREE READING LEVELS Growing, Confident, and Adventure reader variants for every mission, so the same story grows with your child. MISSIONS KIDS LOVE Camouflaged octopuses, thunder math, beaver engineering, the secret of zippers, breads of the world — 23 missions across nature, science, making, math, history, and more. Three starter missions are free. BUILT FOR FAMILIES, NOT FEEDS • No ads, no chat, no accounts, and no links out of the app • A grown-ups-only gate protects all settings and purchases • Reading progress stays on your device • Offline quests use things you already have at home PARENT VIEW A compact progress view shows what your child has read and completed, plus discussion prompts to keep the conversation going.
