AlgoForKids turns programming into a puzzle a child can hold in their hands. A rabbit wants to reach the carrot. Your child builds the route out of colourful command blocks — go forward, turn, jump — then presses play and watches the plan run. When it fails, they see exactly where. When it works, they earn stars for solving it in fewer blocks. No text. No typing. No reading required. WHAT YOUR CHILD LEARNS • Sequencing — putting steps in the right order • Debugging — finding out why a plan didn't work • Loops — repeating a group of steps instead of writing them again • Functions — naming a routine once and reusing it • Efficiency — the three-star target always rewards the shortest solution 100 HAND-DESIGNED LEVELS Every level was drawn by hand, then checked by a solver to make sure it can be finished, that it is different from every other level, and that the star targets are actually reachable. Difficulty rises gently. No wall, no filler. The first 10 levels are free. One single purchase unlocks the rest — no subscription. MADE FOR CHILDREN, RESPECTFULLY • No advertising of any kind • No data collection, no analytics, no tracking • No internet connection needed — plays anywhere • No external links, no chat, no user content • The purchase screen sits behind a parental gate FOUR LANGUAGES English, Turkish, German and Spanish. The game follows your device language automatically. Ages 5 to 10. iPhone and iPad.

Learniverse is a calm, ad-free place for young children to play and learn — sixteen picture games built on a library of 346 illustrated cards. No sign-in. No ads. Nothing to buy. Every game works offline. SIXTEEN GAMES • Flashcards — swipe through cards, hear the word spoken, learn one true fact • Memory Match — flip and find the pairs, across 25 levels • Line Connect — draw a line to join each picture to its partner • Quiz — pick the right answer from a category you choose • Spot the Object — find the hidden things in a busy scene • Sound Match — listen to a word, then tap the picture • Odd One Out — spot the one that does not belong • Pop and Count — tap the bubbles and count them • What's Missing? — one picture leaves the row; say which • Big or Small — sort two things by size • Which Pile? — put each picture with the ones it belongs to • Letter Drop — catch the letter the word starts with • Line Them Up — tap the pictures into place, smallest to biggest • Word Forge — spell the word from a rack of letters, in five languages • Word Search — find the words hidden in the grid, with pictures for clues • Add It Up — pick the baskets that add up to the number FOR GROWN-UPS TOO Word Search's Challenge mode and Memory Match's Advance mode put a clock and a set of lives on the same pictures. Word Forge and Word Search are playable in English, Spanish, Japanese romaji, German and French — the same 346 cards, used to practise a language rather than to learn a first one. WHO IS PLAYING Toddler, Kids and Adult are switches, not a single age. Turn on the ones in the room and the app shows the games and decks that suit them. EVERY LEVEL IS EARNED Games unlock as they are finished, so there is always one next thing rather than a wall of choices. FIVE LANGUAGES Every card carries English, Spanish, Japanese, German and French, with a pronunciation and a short true fact. The interface speaks all five. PRIVACY No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics SDKs, and nothing to buy. Made by Tiny Amigo.
