Ad-free learning for South African children
Your child will greet their grandmother in a South African language — Setswana first, with more on the way — count in it, and solve a coding puzzle by spotting the pattern themselves.
15 days free, then R60 a month. No card required to start. Cancel any time in Settings — access runs to the end of the period you paid for.

Most children’s apps localise a Western curriculum. This one starts from a South African one. Four things your child meets in their first weeks:
Setswana · greetings
Dumela · Ke a leboga
Children greet elders first as a sign of respect — so the lesson teaches the greeting and who it is owed to, together.
Setswana · counting
Nngwe, pedi, tharo
Taught the way they are actually taught: through counting games and songs around the fire, not a number line.
Health · nutrition
Pap, morogo, umngqusho
Every nutrition lesson is built on food a child here actually eats — samp and beans, amasi — not a translated meal plan.
Culture · botho
The kgotla
Where the community meets and everyone who wants to speak may speak — the oldest grandmother, the young farmer, a visiting child.
Setswana is available today. isiZulu is being checked by a native speaker, Sepedi is next, then Xitsonga, Tshivenda, isiXhosa, Afrikaans, siSwati, isiNdebele and South African Sign Language. Every language and its status

What we keepNo Western defaults
Vernacular languages, local foods, and activities grounded in how families here actually live.
Seven subjects, one app
Every module exists to teach, coach, or report — never just to fill time. Inspired by Khan Academy Kids’ joyful, learning-through-play philosophy, adapted for South African languages, cultures, and family structures.
South African home languages
Setswana lessons today, with nine more South African languages including isiZulu, Sepedi and SASL on the way — vocabulary, cultural context, and spaced-repetition review so it actually sticks.
Maths & numbers
Counting, number lines, adding and taking away, and multiplication from Grade 3 — short practice that moves up or down with how your child is actually doing.
Coding basics
Block logic, patterns, sequences and conditions — real computational thinking, adapted to your child's grade level, not just games dressed up as "coding".
Stories
Short, folktale-inspired stories matched to your child's grade, read page by page — with read-aloud for children who are not reading on their own yet.
Feelings & friendships
Naming feelings, calming down, taking turns and being kind — small lessons for the social and emotional skills school will ask of them.
Health & habits
Hygiene, nutrition rooted in real South African food, and simple physical prompts between lessons — all positively framed, never guilt-driven.
Kids & family activities
Structured, equipment-free activities for movement, reading, phonetics and motor skills — plus activities designed for a parent and child to do together.
Parent reports
Weekly and monthly reports across all seven subjects that go beyond a chart: specific, honest suggestions for what to try next with your child.
AI, used carefully
AI helps write your report suggestions and some practice questions, which a person or an answer check reviews first. The chat for children stays switched off at launch.
Coming later · switched off at launch
It asks. It doesn’t answer.
The AI coach your child can talk to is not in the app yet. It stays off until it meets the bar below, and you will be able to choose whether your child uses it.
When a child is stuck, the coach is built to withhold the answer and hand back a smaller question. If the first hint doesn’t land, the next one is bigger — it only gives the answer outright once your child has genuinely tried.
It never says “wrong”. Both your child’s message and the coach’s reply pass a safety check before anything is shown.
The bar it has to meet →Example · pattern exercise, age 6
Child
I don't get it. Red, blue, red, blue, red… what comes next?
Coach
Good question! Say the colours out loud in order. What do you notice about how they take turns?
Child
it goes red then blue then red then blue
Coach
Yes — you just found the rule yourself. So if the last one you said was red, whose turn is it now?
Child
blue!
Coach
Ke a leboga! That's exactly right, and you worked it out on your own. 🎉
An example, not a recording. Replies are generated live against your child’s grade level and recent work, so no two conversations run the same way.
How it works

Register, add your child's profile and grade level, and take a quick placement quiz.
Learn every day
Bite-sized daily sessions across language, coding, activities and health — paced to your child.
See real progress
Weekly reports with specific, AI-generated suggestions — not just a chart of numbers.
A report that tells you what to do next
Every week and every month, you get specific, honest, AI-generated suggestions for what to try next with your child — written from their actual week, not a template.
Honest includes the parts that didn’t go well. A report that only ever congratulates you is a chart with adjectives on it.
See what a report covers →Example · this week’s suggestion
“Lerato completed 4 language lessons this week averaging 82%, but no coding sessions — try one short Coding Basics session with her on Saturday morning to keep both moving. 💻”
- Names a real number from the week, not “great progress”.
- Says what is missing, not only what went well.
- Ends in one thing you can actually do, on a specific day.
One subscription. Up to five children.
Add a second child and the price does not move. Add a fifth and it still does not — every child gets their own profile, their own grade level, their own progress and their own report.
