One step at a time. Basic cognition and basic math practice, at your child's pace. "Every other learning app moves too fast for my child." LittleSteps began with that worry, shared by so many parents. It's a learning tool designed for children with developmental delays, borderline intellectual functioning, or slower learning profiles — and for any child who simply learns more slowly than their peers — so they can work through basic cognition and basic math one careful step at a time. ■ Slow, but in the right direction LittleSteps isn't training children to answer quickly. It gives them room to think, to try once more, and to reach the answer on their own — building that experience up little by little. When small successes repeat, children gain confidence, and that confidence becomes fuel for the next challenge. ■ Design principles • Time to think — Nothing rushes an answer. If your child pauses or starts over, the screen simply waits. • Step-by-step hints — When your child gets stuck, the answer isn't handed over all at once. Support arrives in stages, so they can still finish it themselves. • Voice guidance — Questions and instructions are read aloud, so a child who can't read well yet can still practice on their own. • Sensory-friendly — Flashing screens, sudden loud sounds, and fast-moving characters have been deliberately removed. • One activity per screen — Only one activity appears at a time, to reduce distraction. • Real achievement instead of flashy rewards — Rather than sound effects and animations, what remains is the small success your child worked out for themselves. ■ Practice, stage by stage From basic cognition through multiplication, the practice is organized into 8 stages, so your child can move forward one step at a time from wherever they are now. • Basic Cognition — Learning Colors, Learning Shapes, Drawing Lines, Drawing Shapes, Connecting the Dots, Matching the Same, Matching the Opposite, Pattern Practice, Memory Game, Finding the Same Shape • Number Concepts — Learning Numbers, Writing Numbers, Counting, Counting by Tens, Number Matching, Learning Fractions • Clock, Calendar & Money — Telling Time, Reading a Calendar, Coins and Bills, Counting Money, Making Change • Number Relationships — Comparing Basics, Comparing Quantities, Odd and Even Numbers, Number Intervals, Number Interval Practice, Comparing Fractions • Before Addition — Composing Numbers, Decomposing Numbers, Number Bonds • Addition — Adding 1, 2, 3, Single-Digit Addition, Single-Digit Addition Practice, Carrying Practice, Column Addition • Subtraction — Subtracting 1, 2, 3, Single-Digit Subtraction, Single-Digit Subtraction Practice, Borrowing Practice, Column Subtraction • Multiplication — Times Tables Practice, Single-Digit Multiplication, Column Multiplication ■ Who is it for? • Families whose child keeps giving up because other learning apps move too fast • Parents supporting a child with developmental delays or borderline intellectual functioning • Homeschooling families who want to move through one stage at a time • Special education teachers and cognitive therapists looking for a classroom aid • Children just beginning to learn number concepts ■ Together with parents Practice records are saved automatically, so you can see at a glance where your child gets stuck and which stages have become familiar. Nothing pushes your child into the next stage — it's there to help you decide, yourself, when they're truly ready. This isn't practice in solving the fastest. There are no dazzling rewards. It was made for something else: a place where a child can stay at their own pace, and the moment when those small successes add up and they take the next step on their own. ■ Terms & Policies Terms of Service: https://littlesteps.everydaysummer.net/en/terms Privacy Policy: https://littlesteps.everydaysummer.net/en/privacy End User License Agreement (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: LittleSteps at 100% against 소중한글 동요's 54%. LittleSteps also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). 소중한글 동요's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (13 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. 소중한글 동요 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and LittleSteps sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
소중한글 동요 holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of 소중한글 동요's written reviews are positive against 100% of LittleSteps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
소중한글 동요 ships an update monthly, LittleSteps every 2 days. Both last shipped on November 12, 2026.
