Kaira: Math — gentle math practice for ages 7–9 Meet Kaira, a friendly Samoyed who keeps your child company during math practice. Kaira: Math is a calm, ad-free arithmetic app built on what cognitive science actually says about how kids learn math — not on points, streaks, or pressure. A DIFFERENT KIND OF MATH APP Most kids' math apps use coins, scores, and leaderboards to keep children engaged. Research on child motivation shows these rewards can actually reduce a child's interest in learning over time. Kaira: Math takes a different path. Children progress by building real skill, one step at a time, with Kaira by their side. HOW IT WORKS Your child chooses a skill to practice and how many problems to solve: 5, 10, or 15. Each skill has two phases: - Learning mode — calm, untimed, with gentle hints when something feels hard. Mistakes are treated as information, not failures. - Fluency mode — unlocks only after your child is consistently accurate. A playful way to build speed once the foundation is solid. New skills unlock automatically as earlier ones are mastered. No skill is ever forced, no skill is ever skipped. WHAT YOUR CHILD PRACTICES 25 carefully sequenced addition and subtraction skills, from single-digit facts through three-digit problems with carrying and borrowing. The progression is built on evidence-based strategies like "making tens" and decomposition — the same techniques great teachers use. THE PARENT DASHBOARD Behind a PIN, parents get a dashboard that shows what really matters: which skills your child is working on, where they are stuck, and what kind of mistakes they are making. Not just "73% correct" but "most errors are forgotten carries" — with specific suggestions for how to help at home. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - All data stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud, no sign-up. - No ads. Ever. - No analytics or tracking of your child. - No network connection required to use the app. FOR AGES 7–9 Designed for children in roughly 2nd through 4th grade who are working on double-digit addition, subtraction, carrying, and borrowing. Kaira: Math is not a replacement for school math — it is a calm, private place to build fluency and confidence between lessons. SUBSCRIPTION Kaira: Math Premium unlocks full access to all skills and the parent dashboard. Try it free for 7 days, then $4.99/month or $29.99/year. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Practice math with Kaira. One skill at a time. Terms of Use: https://spartak.io/kaira_math/terms.html

About

ABC Letter Meadow

Features
Read full description

ABC Letter Meadow is a calm, colourful first alphabet game made for toddlers and preschoolers - and for the parents who sit beside them. Tap a letter and it comes to life: you hear the sound the letter makes, then a word that starts with it, meet the friendly animal or object in its picture, and watch the meadow bloom with butterflies and confetti. There is no timer, no score to chase and no way to lose. Little ones simply explore at their own pace. WHAT'S INSIDE • Explore mode - a meadow of big, chunky letter cards sized for small fingers. Tap any one to hear its sound and its word and see its picture; tap the picture to hear the word said slowly. • Letter names too - a name button on every card says the letter's name, and a setting in the Parents area adds it after the word whenever a letter is tapped. • Find the Letter quiz - a gentle listening game that asks for one letter at a time, with three difficulty levels so it grows with your child. The hard level asks by sound. • Capital and small letters - switch between A B C and a b c so the letters match whatever your child is learning. • A real voice - every letter sound, letter name and word is recorded by a native-speaking voice actor. No synthetic voices. • Playful touches everywhere - a friendly owl who says hello and cheers your child on, a wandering ladybug, drifting clouds and a burst of celebration every time a page is finished. MADE FOR SMALL CHILDREN, AND FOR PARENTS • No advertising of any kind. • No accounts, no sign-up, no personal details collected. • No tracking and no third-party behavioural analytics. • The whole game plays offline - no connection needed to play or to start, whether or not you have unlocked it. • Purchase and settings controls sit behind a simple parents-only gate, so a child cannot reach them by tapping around. FREE TO START The first twelve letters are free to play, with no time limit and nothing switched off. If your child enjoys it, a single one-time purchase unlocks the whole alphabet and the full-length quiz - for good. There are no subscriptions, no recurring fees and no consumable coins or gems. Designed and built by a small independent studio, with one goal: a first alphabet app you can hand to your little one without worrying.
