PARENT-CHILD PRETEND PLAY. Tiny Doctor is a doctor-kit style habit game a grown-up plays WITH their child: every "scan" and "report" is clearly-labeled make-believe animation. No camera is used, nothing measures anything, and no real health information is ever produced - it is not medical advice. The goal is education: real hygiene habits, taught through giggles. Tiny Doctor is a box of pretend medical instruments a grown-up runs, with a wink, to end the nightly battles: hand-washing, tooth-brushing, too much ice cream, too much screen time, shampoo refusal, sofa acrobatics, and tantrums. Point the "scanner" at your child and the instrument finds something wonderfully silly - a sleepy ice-cream worm in the tummy, sugar bugs napping on a tooth, germs holding a sports day on an unwashed hand. Every screen is clearly labeled a PRETEND SCANNER. The child presses the one green button, the machine hums, and everything comes back clean, every time. The lesson lands because the fix is theirs. SEVEN INSTRUMENTS - Stomach ultrasound: the ice-cream worm - Hand microscope: germs at 40x - Eye exam: the eye sprite and the blurry chart - Scalp microscope: shampoo-dodging germs - Bone CT: the bone sprite and gentle-play cracks - Teeth checkup: sugar bugs vs. the toothbrush - Brain CT: two fluffy bugs that squabble when tantrums strike, and hug goodbye after a sorry BUILT FOR PARENTS - A parent area (2-second hold) with a debrief script for landing the joke kindly - Gentle mode caps every instrument at "watch" for sensitive kids - Five languages: English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French - One-time purchase unlocks all instruments. No ads. No accounts. PRIVACY No data collected. Nothing leaves the phone. There is no analytics SDK, no ad network, and no sign-in. Pressure goes on the habit, never on the kid. Remember to smile when you show it.
